Cement Making Guide: Steps, Impact & Green Alternatives
Clinkerization is the heart of the cement manufacturing process, where the raw meal is transformed into clinker through high-temperature treatment in the cement kiln. This step is critical as the chemical and physical properties of the clinker determine the final quality and characteristics of the cement.

A comprehensive review on Advanced Process Control of cement kiln
The heating process in the cement kiln requires intense energy to heat the clinker and compensate for the heating loss. Studies illustrate a significant loss of energy (> 50 %) in cement kilns, as shown in Fig. 2 [4].Thus, there is a need for optimal design and efficient operation of the cement kiln to minimise this energy loss.
