This document describes the hydraulic control system for adjusting the gap between two rollers on a roller press machine. Key points:
1. Hydraulic pumps, valves, cylinders and accumulators are used to push and retract the movable roller to control the gap.
2. The gap is adjusted through a multi-step startup process that retracts the roller to a preset minimum gap before starting material flow.
3. Once running, pressure control circuits use proportional valves to balance hydraulic pressure against material pressure and maintain the target gap setting.

Lumps form in cement silos due to several factors: 1) High temperature cement being conveyed into silos, causing dehydration and moisture movement; 2) Entry of humid air which hydrates fine cement; 3) Rough silo surfaces allowing hydration and dislodging of cement. To prevent lumps, the document recommends: reducing cement temperature to below 80°C when conveying; reducing storage time; improving silo ventilation; and adding anhydrate gypsum to slow hydration. Proper silo coating and maintenance can also help reduce lumps forming over time in cement silos.
Microsoft power point dip tube failurepradeepdeepi
The document discusses causes of dip tube failure in the 5th stage cyclone of a cement plant. Heavy carbon monoxide formation can corrode iron and activate volatile sulfur and alkali cycles. Sulfur then attacks nickel while alkalis attack chromium. Alkalis from raw materials can also attack chromium in high-temperature conditions. Embrittlement and wear may be caused by sigma phase formation, requiring modified metallurgy. The solution involves avoiding CO formation, frequent shut downs, modifying nickel-chromium ratios based on raw material and fuel chemistry to prevent corrosion, and identifying sigma formation temperatures for metallurgical improvements.
This document summarizes a presentation on bench scale and pilot plant tests for circulating load in crushing and milling circuits. It discusses calculating circulating load, effective factors that influence circulating load like feed rate and water addition, and test design considerations. The conclusions indicate that optimum circulating load balances energy costs and that Bond work index values are affected by test sieve size and circulating load.
The document discusses the relationship between process and quality in cement production. It notes that quality is dependent on maintaining consistent processes. Variations in raw materials, mining, blending, and other processes can negatively impact quality. Proper quality control aims to minimize these variations and ensure the final product meets specifications. The key is integrating quality control throughout the entire production process from start to finish.
Use of diverting_gatesfor_kiln_preheater (1)pradeepdeepi
Proportionally operable diverting gates between the 4th preheater stage and kiln inlet provide benefits when firing certain fuels in the kiln. Diverting some raw meal reduces coating formation from high-ash coals, petcoke with sulfur above 1.5% evaporation factor, or when alkali levels exceed 0.5%. This is because the raw meal absorbs ash and reduces stickiness. There is a misconception that raw meal will drop into the kiln when diverted, but high gas velocities above 15 m/s lift all material to the calciner. Diverting raw meal slightly increases retention time and reduces fuel use.
1) The filter cake that forms on the surface of the filter bags is what does the filtering, not the bags themselves. The cake protects the bags from dust.
2) When designing a dedusting system, the key components to consider are the equipment to be dedusted, dedusting pipes/valves, filter, fan/motor, and insulation. Design guidelines include airflow volumes, pipe sizes, filtration velocities below 1.3 m/s, and dust concentrations of 20-50 g/cubic meter.
3) Important factors for selecting filter bags include the type of filter and cleaning mechanism, moisture/temperature, dust properties, and providing high permeability, strength, and stability. The bag material

It provides information on maximum safe shell temperatures, definitions of hot spots and red spots, factors to consider regarding kiln stoppage due to red spots, oxygen enrichment technology, and classifications of precalciners.
2) Oxygen enrichment technology involves injecting oxygen into kiln or precalciner burners to improve energy efficiency and production capacity. It allows use of lower quality fuels and reduces CO2 emissions.
3) Precalciners are classified based on where combustion takes place - in a mixture of gases, pure air, or a combination. Equipment suppliers like FLSmidth classify precalciners slightly differently into in
Ring and snowball formation can occur in the kiln due to various process, operational, and maintenance factors. Key factors include raw material chemistry variations, unstable kiln and calciner operations, refractory selection, and flame characteristics. The formation of rings is a dynamic process where deposit-forming forces outweigh destructive forces, such as melting/freezing due to heat changes and interlocking of particles. Common ring types include spurrite and sulfo-spurrite rings formed by clinker freezing in the calcining zone. Addressing issues like feed continuity, material segregation, and combustion can help reduce ring formation.

1. Fine, dusty clinker leads to segregation in the kiln and non-uniform clinker beds in coolers due to differences in particle size and density.
2. When high-velocity cooling air hits closely-packed fine clinker dust, the air is heated, expands, and fluidizes the dust causing it to flow rapidly down the cooler in a "red river."
3. Newer cooler designs use stationary inclined grates and mechanical air flow regulators to better control air distribution and reduce issues caused by red rivers of fine, hot clinker dust.
