Design replicated at 05 other plants of ACL & ACC and achieved similar results

25 Innovative Project-3 Initiative: Reduction of fuel consumption for preheating VRM (grinding) operation Operational Requirement of HAG: VRM Grinding is started only >90 degree C as general practice. Temperature drop of degree C in closed circuit due to false air entrance >25%. To avoid dehydration of final cement product. To avoid condensation of cement in transport circuit and silo. To avoid boulder formation and deterioration of final cement material. Initiatives taken to optimize HAG Operation: OEM & Techport recommendation to operate VRM grinding above dew point. Blocked all false air sources and reduced it to design level of 15%.(CII 13.2%) Online temperature monitoring of final cement discharge to silo. Auto controlling of water spray with above temperature. Modified clinker silo extraction chute logic to get homogenous temperature material during plant operation Utilized required heat from grinding energy and Clinker temperature.
