1 Best Practices adopted by ACC on Energy Efficiency improvement Author : K.N Rao Director EECC ACC Ltd Date : 26th February 2015 ACC Limited EECC 2/19/2015

2 Indian Cement Industry India is the second largest Cement producer after China Approximate production of 251 Million Tonnes per annum. Cement industry comprises of 183 large cement plants (97% Installed capacity) and more than 360 mini cement plants. More than 97% of the plants have adopted Energy Efficient dry manufacturing technology Indian cement plants are comparable with the best in the world. The industry s average energy consumption is estimated to be about 725 kcal/kg clinker thermal energy and 85 kwh/t cement electrical energy. The best thermal and electrical energy consumption presently achieved by the Indian cement industry is about 684 kcal/kg clinker and 65.5 kwh/t cement Comparable to the best reported figures of 651 kcal/kg clinker and 57 kwh/t cement in a developed country like Japan. 2 ACC Limited EECC 2/19/2015

7 Clinker Factor Improve Clinker Quality Gainful utilisation of Slag, a waste industrial byproduct Fly ash, waste from thermal power plants, to make superior Blended cements Portland Slag Cement Portland Pozzolana Cement Part replacement of clinker which is made from limestone; leading to Mineral conservation Emissions reduction Waste management Lower cost, higher volume Superior cement 7

8 Clinker Factor Improve Clinker Quality Optimize raw mix to enhance clinker quality for better absorption of pozzolonic material Process & equipment management (Dozing rate of additive / enhancers, Use of Rotascale & other equipment for precise feeding) Optimize PSD, Blaine, air/internal spray Benchmark / Compare key parameters across plants: (Clinker %, CaO clinker, R45%) Use of Additives % Recycled Material Some of ACC plants have attained clinker substitution rate (slag as well as PPC) as per norms specified by BIS 8
