CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.

Cosmetic shop management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
Buying new cosmetic products is difficult. It can even be scary for those who have sensitive skin and are prone to skin trouble. The information needed to alleviate this problem is on the back of each product, but it's thought to interpret those ingredient lists unless you have a background in chemistry.
Instead of buying and hoping for the best, we can use data science to help us predict which products may be good fits for us. It includes various function programs to do the above mentioned tasks.
Data file handling has been effectively used in the program.
The automated cosmetic shop management system should deal with the automation of general workflow and administration process of the shop. The main processes of the system focus on customer's request where the system is able to search the most appropriate products and deliver it to the customers. It should help the employees to quickly identify the list of cosmetic product that have reached the minimum quantity and also keep a track of expired date for each cosmetic product. It should help the employees to find the rack number in which the product is placed.It is also Faster and more efficient way.

This report covers the experience, which I got in ‘INDUSTRIAL
TRAINING’ at Birla Corp. Ltd. (SCW, Satna). Firstly I was introduced in the Cement Mill &
Packing Plant section. In operation of cement mill the clinker first come from the clinker
storage piles to the clinker hopper through the deep bucket conveyor. Then transferred to the
polycom, where it crushes and then fed to cement mill for further grinding and mixing. There
is also a recirculation system, which again feed the coarse material to the polycom. The very
fine material from cement mill is then stored in the cement silo. From the cement silo the
cement is fed to the packers, where it filled in the bags of 50 kg.
Then I was introduced in the OHC section, Heavy Earth Moving Vehicle
section and then Raw Mill & Coal Mill section. In Raw Mill & Coal Mill section I got the
knowledge of various Instruments like pressure transmitters, temperature transmitters,
pressure gauge, proximity switches, flow switches, level switches, temperature sensors like
RTDs & thermocouples, weigh feeders, metal detector &metal separator etc. Then I was
introduced to Kiln and Preheater section, WHRS and all others section one by one and learnt
the processes and working of various machines and their significance.

A) WEIGH FEEDER
As the name suggests it feeds material to the next process while weighing the material in
proper quantity. It is just like any conveyor belt but the belt speed is varied by weighing the
material so as the feed to the next process remains constant. The material on the belt is
weighed by load cell under the belt and the speed is varied by the speed control of dc motor.
The signal from the load cell and speed (measured by Tachometer) are multiplied in
microprocessor card. The resultant shows the feed in TPH. Further this TPH is compared by a
set point given externally. Now the microprocessor controller generates the error which is
amplified and given to the Thyristor controller, which controls the power fed to the DC motor
which in accordance varies the speed of the belt with the gear box and hence control the feed.
INPUT, OUTPUT & MARKER
These are one bit variable that can have LOW or HIGH status. Inputs are signal from outside
to the control program, and outputs are signal from the
control program to the external system. Markers are internal variable and serve asmemory
28. 28 | P a g e
within the control system. They are available outside the control system when they have
been copied onto outputs. This diagram depicts the basic process of cement blending
and storage.
29. 29 | P a g e
B) BELT WEIGHER
It is a system used to measure the feed of material to any m/c through belt conveyor. We are
using it in many location. In Raw mill it is being used.
PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
Mass of material flowing on BC is sensed by load cells. Load cells are located under the belt
in such a way that the force acting on the load cell is equal to amount of material on the 1/2
meter of the belt, hence it is represented in Kg/m. The belt speed is sensed by a speed
transducer which is calibrated to give belt speed in m/sec. The integration of belt loading and
belt speed will give you total material, whereas multiplication of two gives instantaneous
flow rate in Kgs/sec. Various indicators totalizers, alarms and control signals can be
generated from flow rate signal.
Flow rate = Belt loading*Belt speed= Kg/m*m/sec = Kg/sec
Flow rate in tones/hours = Kg/sec*(3600/1000)
Total material conveyed= Int. of (f/v)dt from 0 to l
f = Belt loading
l = distance between rollers
v = belt speed It comprises of following
1. Transom assembly
2. Load cell
3. Speed transducer
4. Main processing unit
30. 30 | P a g e
C) TEMPERATURE MEASURING INSTRUMENTS
I. THERMOCOUPLE
The thermocouples are based on Thermo-electric effect is known as Seeback effect. A
thermocouple consists of a pair of dissimilar metal wires joined together at one end (sensing
or hot junction) and terminated at the other end (cold junction or reference), which is
maintained at a known constant temperature (reference temperature).When a temperature
difference exists between the sensing junction and reference junction an EMF is produced
that causes the current to flow in the circuit. When the reference junctions terminated by a
meter, the meter indication will be proportional to the temperature difference between the hot
junction and the reference junction. Various types of thermocouples are:
TYPE MATERIAL USED
J Iron-constantan K Cromel-Alumel R/S Platinum-Rhodium E Chromel-ConstantanTo
ensure long life in its operation environment a thermocouple is protected in an open or closed
metal protecting tube or well. Since thethermocouples usually in a location remote from the
measuring instrument, connections are made using special extension wires called
compensating lead.
THERMOCOUPLES IN CEMENT PLANT
II. RESISTANCE TEMPRATURE DETECTOR (RTD)
They employ a sensitive element of extremely pure Platinum, Copper or Nickelwire that
provides a definite resistance value at each temperature with in its range R(t)=R(ref) (1+ $t)R
(t)= Resistance of conductor at temperature "t"R (ref)= Resistance at reference temperature$=
Temperature coefficient.Almost all metals have a positive temp. Coefficient of resistance so
thattheir resistance increases with an increase in temperature. Some materials such ascarbon
and germanium have negative temperature coefficient of resistance, whichsignifies that their
resistance decreases with increase in temperature. PT100 is anexample of RTD that has 100
ohms resistance at zero degree resistance.Type of RTD -- PT-100.
31. 31 | P a g e
III. KILN SHELL TEMPRATURE SCANNER
It is used for precise evaluation of the refractory's condition at all times.Evan if a single brick
falls out its location can be identified as a hot spot. It uses principles of non-contact
temperature measurement. It measures an objectnaturally emitted infrared radiation to
determine its temperature. Infraredradiation enters through a sensor window. A mirror
rotating at 19.6 Hz receivesinfrared energy and reflects it on to a lens, which focuses it on to
athermoelectrically cooled detector. The detector receives energy from the targetfor every 90
degrees of rotation of the mirror. Rest remaining 270 degrees of rotation are used to self
calibrate the instrument by reflecting infrared energy of two internal temperature indicators
on to the detector.The incoming signal is sampled at 20 kHz, converted from analog to digital
andtranslated by an internal microprocessor into temperature. For every rotation of mirror
256 measured values are possible which can be averaged to 128 or 64measured signals.For
data transmission an RS232 interface with switchable baud rate is availableand allows
transmission of pre-processed data to a PC.
IV. RADIATION PYROMETER
It is also detects the heat radiation emitted from the object. These radiation
arefinally converted into temperature using the necessary optics and electroniccircuitry.
32. 32 | P a g e
D) PRESSURING MEASURING INSTRUMENTS
PRESSURE TRANSMITTER
Pressure is transmitted to a silicon pressure sensor through a diaphragm and aliquid filling.
The pressure causes the sensors measuring diaphragm to distort.The resistance of four doped
pizeo resistors in a bridge circuit in the measuringdiaphragm changes. The change in
resistance generates an o/p voltage in bridgecircuit that is proportional to the measured
pressure. The voltage is converted into periodic signal by an amplifier in a voltage/frequency
convertor. A microcontroller evaluates the signal, correct it with respect to linearity and
temperature before passing it on to D/A convertor which gives 4 to 20 mA.Differential
pressure is transmitted to a silicon pressure sensor through adiaphragm and a liquid filling.
The differential pressure causes sensors measuringdiaphragm to distort. The electronic circuit
is same as that of pressure transmitter.The differential capacitance between the sensing
diaphragm and capacitance plateis converted electrically to 4 to 20 mA.The process pressure
is transmitted through an isolating diaphragm and oil fluidto a sensing diaphragm. The
reference pressure is transmitted similarly to theother side of sensing .The displacement of
sensing diaphragm is proportional to pressure difference across it. The position of the sensing
diaphragm is detected bythe capacitance plate on both sides of the sensing diaphragm. This
capacitance isfurther treated to give 4 to 20 mA.
33. 33 | P a g e
E) LEVEL MEASURING INSTRUMENTS
I. NUCLEONIC LEVEL SENSOR
These provide noncontact method of level monitoring. It utilizes theattenuation principle of
gamma rays transmission. Since it does not come incontact with material so it is not affected
by the physical conditions.Such type of level sensors have a source of gamma radiations and
adetector. The source and detector are mounted opposite to each other. The sourceutilizes
Ceasium137 or Cobalt 60 as a source of gamma radiations. The gammaradiation sees through
the vessel wall and detector converts nuclear gamma rayradiations into electrical quantities
related to level (generally in form of a counter)When the level of the material in the vessel
exceeds the height of thegamma beam the beam is attenuated and the output relay
switches.Intensity of the radiation received by the detector varies(1) in proportion to the
thickness of the material between source and the detector.(2) inversely proportion to the
square of the distance between the source and thedetector.
II. ULTRASONIC LEVEL SENSOR
The emitter in the sensor is excited electrically and it sends an ultrasonic pulse inthe direction
of the surface of the product which partially reflects the pulse. Theecho is detected by the
same sensor and then converted back into electrical signal.The time between transmission
and reception of pulse is directly proportional tothe distance between the sensor and product
suface. The distance is determined bythe velocity of sound "c" and the run time "t" using the
formulad=c.t/2 (where c=320mtr/sec)
III. RF TYPE LEVEL SENSOR
It includes an electronic unit and a probe. The electronic unit consists of anoscillator, a
detector and a output relay which is controlled by the detector .
The probe contains an inner(active)section and outer section(shield),insulated fromeach other
and from the vessel ground.The oscillator generates low power RF signal which is used to
providesignals equal in frequency, amplitude and phase to both, active section and theshield
section of the probe.The signals provided to shield held constant. The detector is then used
tocompare the fixed shield signal with the active signal which varies with thedielectric
constant of the material in contact with the probe .Difference in signalscompared by the
detector cause the output relay to activate.
IV. CAPACITANCE TYPE LEVEL SENSOR
Capacitance is formed between the sensing probe and the vesselwall/ground. When the
material level changes there is corresponding change inthe value of this capacitance because
of the difference in the dielectric constant of the material and that of air. The electronic
circuit converts the capacitance intoDC signal which causes the relay to operate.

F)ELECTRONIC SPEED SWITCH
The electronic speed switch is ideally suited to monitor any repetitivemotion, whether
rotational or translational. In fact it is best suited for the speedmonitoring of critical element
of any material handling system, such as belt/screw conveyor, elevators, crushers, drag chain,
rotary feeders etc. It senses theunder speed /over speed conditions in the systems by non
contact method and provides out put contacts for protection, control and interlock
purposes.Application include ,detection in jamming in feeders, sequential interlocking
onconveyors, detection of blade breakage in reclaimer chain, motion detection, fanspeed
monitoring etc.The speed switch comprises of a sensor probe and a monitor unit. A sensor
probe is a non contact type inductive proximity switch, which picks up speedinformation,
evalutes it and provides necessary outputs. The proxi potted probe isdust and water tight and
the monitor in steel sheet or cast Alluminium, epoxi printed housing is dust tight pulses are
clearly visible through the transparentwindow on cover. The terminal strip which can accept
conductor up to 2.5 squaremm, speed setting knob, the range switch and the bypass trip
setting knob all areaccessible only after opening the cover. Proper markings are provided for
test points and external conditions. Different housings are available to suit
individualrequirements. The sensor probe are available suit individual requirements.
Thesensor probe is available in threaded housing, either thermoplastic or metallicwith two
clamping nuts, maving size as per selection table.
With the unit connected the "SUPPLY ON" and "RELAY ON" LED lightup as the supply is
switched on During the initial bypass time, which is initiated by supply on the output
relay remains picked, independent of speed. It is further held only. if the speed reaches the set
value, before expiry of the bypass. Therelay then drops whenever the speed falls below the
set value. it can again pick up, if the system speed picks up to healthy running condition. The
pulses LED onand off in response to the actuation and deactuation of the probe.

G) METAL DETECTOR
In our plant LS is queried from mines. So it may happen that some metal pieces can come
together with .If these metal pieces allowed to pass throughmachinery it could damage
machinery. So to detect metal, detecting device isused on the belt weigher which senses the
metal and divert the material to rightside for short duration.
DESIGN
The metal detecting device consists of two components the probe and theamplifier, both
which are interconnected with one coaxial cable. The probe will be furnished to match your
conveyor belt width. There is a single probe and atendom probe available. The planer single
probe will usually be mountedunderneath the conveyor belt. The tendom probe consists of
two planer probesone of which will be mounted underneath the conveyor belt while the other
probewill be held above the belt by special support.
FUNCTION
A high frequency AC voltage is fed from the amplifier to a coil in the probe via a75 ohms
coaxial cable. This generates an electromagnetic field. If a metal piececomes into this field,
induction currents will be generated that drain power fromoscillator.
If depending upon the selected sensitivity an unwanted metal piece in theconveyed material is
identified by the electronics. In the amplifier, the o/p relaywill switch to its other state for
about 0.5 seconds.The o/p relay has two potential free NO/NC contacts that are wired to
theterminal strip. These contacts can be used to stop the conveyor belt or to activatean
injection device.

H) OPACITY MONITOR
Opacity refers to the amount of light being scattered or absorbed by particles in the light
beam path. An Opacity or dust density monitor measures the particulate level of stack
emissions. One of the most common reasons for measuring opacity is comply with
Environment protection (EPA) or the nationalrequirement. A transmissometer is used to
ensure that the stack opacity does notexceed these prescribed limits.
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The OPM 2000A Opacity/Dust monitor consists of a transmitter receiver (transceiver)
module, a retroreflector module and a control room unit (CRU). Thetransreceiver and
retroreflector modules are mounted on the stack directlyopposite each other. The transceiver
projects a controlled beam of light across thestack. Particles in the gas stream cause a certain
amount of light to be scatteredand absorbed. This amount varies depend upon the particulate
content of the gasstream an the type and the size of the particles. The corner tube bounces the
light back along a parallel path to the transreceiver. The light then strikes a detector,which
converts the light into a voltage that can be processed. The detector signalis amplified by an
independently powered detector/amplifier board. The amplifiedsignal is then digitized and
transmitted to the CRU calculates opacity, sendscommands to the transceiver, and provides
an operator interface for the system.Because the beam passes through the stack twice (once in
each direction) theresulting value is double - pass transmitted measurement. By passing
through the smock twice, sensitivity to opacity level is increased and alignment of
themodules is made easier. The measurement value is compared to a reference value
previously determined with no smoke in the light path. The resulting ratio is atransmittance
value for the measurement path. This ratio can then be converted tounits of optical density
and stack exit opacity and dust concentration.
TRANSCEIVER MODULE
The main component of transceive module of optical assembly air lens assemblyand blower
motor. The three components are mounted to monitoring plate andenclosed in weather
housign. The optical assembly contents all transceiver opticaland electronic components.
OPTICAL SYSTEM
The light source for the optical system is a special long -life incandescent lamp.The lamp
contains a built-in that directs light forward to a 1/8-inch diameter cross-haired aperture. Two
liquid crystal windows (LCW) function as shuttersthat either block or transmit light. The
LCWs are made of a normally translucentfilm when an electric current is applied to the file,
the LCWs becomestransparent, allowing light to pass. The sequence and duration that the
LCWs turnon or off are under software control. Each of four-voltage measurement is
produced by a different combination of LCWs being on or off during themeasurement cycle.
Each measurement cycle consists of four different light pathmodes, each of which produces
different voltages. The four measurement modesSTACK, AMBIENT, DARK and LAMP.

I) VIBRATION MONITOR
VIBROCONTROL 1000 Vibration monitoring system is used to monitor andmeasure
machines vibrations. The system measures the rms value of vibrationvelocity in accordance.
PRINCIPAL OF OPERATION
Electrodynamic vibration sensors converts mechanical motion into an analogeelectrical
signal. The op voltage supplied by the sensor is proportional to thevibratoion velocity. The
ac signal supplied by the sensor is amplifired rectifiedand adapted to the measuring span in
the measuring or monitoring amplifier.At the o/p of these ciruits, a dc voltage of 0 to 10 volts
or a dc currentsignal of 4-20 ma is available, which can be fed to field mounted i/o cards,
whichis given to PLC system, further it is displayed on coros monitor. Each system has5
calibrated measuring ranges for vibration velocity or vibration displacement. Inaddition the
measuring amplifier enables 2 alarm limits to be set, a power relay
is provided for each of the alarm limits, the throw-over contacts of which can beused to trip
an alarm or shut-down the machine concerned.A supplementary ok relay monitors the power
supply and the sensor circuit by means of a dc current passing through sensor coil.

CEMENT MANUFACTURING PROCESS
There are four main process routes In the manufacturing of cement – the dry,semi-dry, semi-
wet and wet process.Common to all these processes are the following sub-processes - _
Quarrying. _ Raw materials preparation. _ Fuels preparation. _ Clinker burning. _ Mineral
additions preparation. _ Cement grinding. _ Cement dispatch
A) QUARRYING
Natural (“primary”) raw materials
such as limestone/chalk, marl, andclay/shale are extracted from quarries which, in most cases,
are located close tothe cement plant. After extraction, these raw materials are crushed at the
quarrysite and transported to the cement plant for intermediate storage, homogenizationand
further preparation.
Belt Conveyors Impact Crusher
Limestone Stock Pile Additives Storage Hopper
41. 41 | P a g e
Corrective materials
such as bauxite, iron ore or sand may be required toadapt the chemical composition of the
raw mix to the requirements of the processand product specifications. The quantities of these
corrective materials are usuallylow compared to the huge mass flow of the main raw
materials.To a limited extent, “secondary” (or “alternative”) raw materials originating
fromIndustrial sources are used to substitute for natural raw materials and correctives.In the
same way as traditional raw materials, they may be fed to the quarry crusher or – more
commonly – directly to the cement plant’s raw material preparation system.
Today, modern computerised methods are available to evaluate the rawmaterial deposits and
to optimise the long-term and short-term productionschedule.
B)RAW MATERIALS PREPARATION
The raw material is finish-ground before
being fed into the kiln for clinkering. This
grinding is done using either ball mills or
vertical roller mills (VRM
VRM uses the compression principle to
grind the raw material
The main advantage of VRM is higher
grinding efficiency and ability to accept
material with higher moisture content
Normally the energy consumption level in
VRM is 10 to 20 percent lower than in ball
mills.
Raw Mill Building, VRM
After intermediate storage and pre-homogenisation, the raw materials are driedand ground
together in defined and well-controlled proportions in a raw mill to produce a raw meal For
the dry (and semi dry) process. In the wet (and semi-
wet) process, the raw materials are slurried and ground with addition of sufficientwater to
produce a raw slurry. Depending on the technological process applied, additional steps may
berequired such as preparing raw meal “pellets” from dry meal (semi-dry process)or “filter
cake” by dewatering of the slurry in filter presses (semi-wet process).The resulting
intermediate product – i.e. raw meal or raw slurry (or their derivatives) – is stored and further
homogenised in raw meal silos, storage bins or slurry basins to achieve and maintain the
required uniform chemical composition before entering the kiln system.As a rule of thumb,
approximately 1.5 – 1.6 tons of (dry) raw materials arerequired to produce one ton of the
burnt product clinker. More detailed figures onraw.
42. 42 | P a g e
C) FUELS PREPARATION
Conventional (fossil) fuels
used in the cement industry are mainly coal(lignitie and hard coal), petcoke (a product from
crude oil refining), and heavy oil(“bunker C”). Natural gas is rarely used due to its higher
cost.
Alternative fuels
– i.e. non-fossil fuels derived from industrial (“waste”)sources .
Fuels preparation
– i.e. crushing, drying, grinding, and homogenising – usually takes place on site. Specific
installations are required such as coal mills, silos
andstorage halls for solid fuels, tanks for liquid fuels, and the correspondingtransportand
feeding systems to the kilns.The thermal fuel consumption is largely dependent on the basic
process designapplied in the burning of clinker.
In order to blend and homogenize the raw materials
properly, continuous blending silos are used.
As there are various sources of raw materials, it
becomes necessary to blend and homogenize these
different materials efficiently to counteract fluctuation
in the chemical composition of the raw meal.
Blending and Storage Silo
D) CLINKER BURNING
Clinkering takes place in the kiln and the preheater system.
Preheater systems offer heat transfer from the hot kiln
gases.
Preheater
43. 43 | P a g e
A kiln is the heart of any cement plant.
It is basically a long cylindrical-shaped pipe,
and rotates in a horizontal position. Its internal
surface is lined by refractory bricks. Limestone
and additives are calcined in this. The output of
the kiln is called clinker.
Kilm speed is 3.5 RPM
Kiln
The prepared raw material (“kiln feed”) is fed to the kiln system where it issubjected to a
thermal treatment process consisting of the consecutive steps of drying/preheating,
calcination (e.g. release of CO2 from limestone), and sintering(or “clinkerisation”, e.g.
formation of clinker minerals at temperatures up to1450° C). The burnt product “clinker” is
cooled down with air to 100-200° C andis transported to intermediate storage.The kiln
systems commonly applied are rotary kilns with or without so-called“suspension preheaters”
(and, in more advanced systems, “precalciners”)depending on the main process design
selected. The rotary kiln itself is aninclined steel tube with a length to diameter ratio between
10 and 40. The slightinclination (2.5 to 4.5%) together with the slow rotation (0.5 – 4.5
revolutions per minute) allow for a material transport sufficiently long to achieve the
thermalconversion processes required.Exhaust heat from the kiln system is utilised to dry raw
materials, solid fuels or mineral additions in the mills. Exhaust gases are dedusted using
either electrostatic precipitators or bag filter systems before being released to theatmosphere.
The clinker coming out of the kiln is hot. It is
cooled in a set-up called a cooler. In the cooler,
cold air is blown to effect heat exchange
between hot clinker and cold air.

The output of the kiln is
stored before it is fed to the
cement mill for conversion to
cement.
The deep bucket conveyor is essentially an
equipment to lift material vertically.

Clinker Storage
This storage space is used for gypsum storage.
Gypsum Storage
45. 45 | P a g e
The term bag house is applied to large filters
containing a number of tubular bags
mounted in a usually rectangular casing.
The dust laden air is drawn through them by
suction.
E) CEMENT GRINDING
Portland cement
It is produced by intergrinding cement clinker with a few percentof natural or industrial
gypsum (or anhydrite) in a cement mill.
Cement Mill and Bag House
Blended cements
Blended cement (or “composite” cements) contain other constituents in addition such
asgranulated blast-furnace slag, natural or industrial pozzolana (for example,volcanic tuffs or
fly ash from thermal power plants), or inert fillers such aslimestone.Mineral additions in
blended cements may either be interground with clinker or ground separately and mixed with
Portland cement.Grinding plants may be located remotely from the clinker production
facility.The different cement types have to be stored separately in cement silos prior to
bagging and dispatch.
F)MINERALS ADDITION PREPARATION
Mineral additions from natural or industrial sources intended to be used in blended cements
may need to be dried, crushed or ground in separate installationson site. Separate “grinding
plants” where mineral additions and blended cementsonly are produced may also be located
remote from the clinker production facility.
The cement storage silo is used for storing the
finished product – cement.
Cement Storage Silo
Clinker, along with additives, is ground in a
cement mill. The output of a cement mill is
the final product viz. Cement.
46. 46 | P a g e
The cement is packed with the help of a rotary packer and finally
dispatched to the market.
G) CEMENT DISPATCH
Cement may be shipped as bulk cement or – usually to a lesser extent – packedinto bags
and palletised for dispatch. Transport methods used (i.e. road, railway,waterways) depend
on local conditions and requirements.
Packing and Dispatch
H)
CENTRAL CONTROL ROOM
It is the nerve center of the cement plant since all equipment is controlled from this place. It
is the place from where all the process parameters are controlled.
