20 Innovative Project - 1 : Modification of Kiln-1 bag house

21 Constraints in present operation Bag house differential pressure maintained mmwg Compressed air pressure maintained 4.0 to 4.5 bar Bags damage and less life due to clustering of bags The bag house inlet temperature is high due to pressurization Not able to increase the preheater fan speed further The compressor is running always in loading condition Above condition resulted increase in bag house fan & compressor power consumption Dust emission mg/nm3

22 Development of New in-house solution Newly designed & In-house fabricated Grid system installed at bag filter bottom portion to hold each bags. Before After

23 Development of New solution Compressed air purging pipes replaced with new design Before After Insertion & U clamp fixing of purge pipe Flange type fixing of purge pipes

24 Development of New solution Height between purging pipe and tube sheet has been reduced Before After 350mm 245mm

25 Performance Improvement & Benefits achieved The Bag filter Dp is reduced by 40 mmwg with reduced compressed air pressure of 3.5 to 4.0 bar Power saving in Bag filter fan & Compressor is 25 Kw/hr Dust emission level reduced from 40 to 8 mg/nm3 Kiln performance has improved by increasing preheater fan flow rate Bags life increased due to reduction in purging air pressure & avoiding clustering of bags

26 Innovative Project - 2 : Auto Sampler for Clinker Sampling

27 Constraints in present operation Manual Spot sampling shows only the instantaneous clinker quality Taking corrective action based on the spot sampling gives wrong result some time In manual sampling, person to person the sampling techniques are changing Man hour utilisation is high due to sampling and sieving Dust emission during sieving

28 Development of In-House Solution In-house made auto sampler has been installed at clinker crusher outlet DPC It collects the average sample for every 10 minutes. Its provide litre weight sample and raw clinker separately This sampler connected with CCR PLC We can adjust the sample collection period and quantity as required

29 Working of Auto Sampler Cooler Outlet Clinker collection tray DPC Guide pulley Drive pulley Clinker Silo

30 Working of Auto Sampler Pneumatic cylinder Vibrating screen 6mm to 12 mm material Sample for Litre weight analysis >12 mm material < 6 mm material To DPC Sample for Elemental analysis Drive system

31 Benefits achieved Clinker sampling is more representative from hourly spot sample to once in 10 minutes average sample collection. Consistency in quality improved due to more representative sampling. Frequency of operating parameters changing has reduced. Specific fuel consumption reduced by 1.6 Kcal/Kg Clinker Coal Saving 248 MT/annum

33 Encon Efforts Sl.No Source of ENCON IDEA Idea originated Details of members involved Progress of implementation 1 Engineer Kiln-1 Process & Mechanical Team 2 Workmen Workmen Packer Mechanical & Instrumentation team Kiln Mechanical & Instrumentation team Completed Completed Completed 4 Middle Management Kiln-1 Process & Mechanical Team Completed

34 Project - 1 : Prevention of Coal mill inlet jam In Kiln 1 Coal mill, we frequently noticed coal accumulation in the inlet chute. Due to this accumulation the productivity of the mill was poor and there was occasional firing of the accumulated coal. Engineer suggested the idea to modify the inlet feed chute by providing a guide plate to uniformly feed coal to the mill without accumulation. Implementation of that idea resulted in the reduction of coal mill run hours from 15:30 Hours to 15:00 hours a day. Power Saving Cost Saving : Units/annum : Rs Lakhs/annum

35 Project - 2: Cement Bag Weight optimization We are operating two 12-spout packer supplied by M/s. FLSmidth with Ventomatic electronics. Due to frequent additional dosing the productivity of the packer was low. Instrumentation & Mechanical workmen together gave an idea to provide an additional dosing valve so that the slide gate cylinder opening is controlled during fine feed. Implementation of that idea resulted in increased productivity by 5%. Power Saving Cost Saving : 1.2 Lakh units/annum : Rs Lakhs/annum

36 Project - 3: N 2 Gas plant Compressor Optimization N 2 used as a inert gas for purging in coal grinding and firing section bins and bag filters The valve for purging is located nearer to the bag filter thus 40 meter away from the N 2 storage tank N 2 gas generation compressor is running daily while reducing the N 2 storage tank pressure due to leakage Kiln fitter suggested to relocate the valve nearer to N 2 tank outlet for avoid leakage from pipe line. Power Saving Cost Saving : 16,900 units/annum : Rs. 67,600/annum

37 Project - 4: Primary air fan outlet duct modification In Kiln-1, the pressure drop across the Primary air fan outlet to burner is found 90 mmwg High pressure drop within short distance consumed more power and high primary air percentage One of the manager studied and recommended to reduce the duct bend from 90 to 30⁰ Implementation of this idea resulted in saving of power and fuel Power Saving Fuel Saving Cost Saving : 38,400 units/annum : 83 MT of Coal/annum : Rs. 7.3 Lakhs/annum
