Cement History:
Joseph Aspdin took out a patent in 1824 for "Portland Cement," a material he produced
by firing finely-ground clay and limestone until the limestone was calcined. He called it Portland
Cement because the concrete made from it looked like Portland stone, a widely-used building
stone in England.
In 1845, Isaac Johnson made the first modern Portland Cement by firing a mixture of
chalk and clay at much higher temperatures, similar to those used today. At these temperatures
(1400C-1500C), clinkering occurs and minerals form which are very reactive and more strongly
cementitious.
-Development of rotary kilns
- Addition of gypsum to control setting
- Use of ball mills to grind clinker and raw materials
Rotary kilns gradually replaced the original vertical shaft kilns used for making lime from
the 1890s. Rotary kilns heat the clinker mainly by radiative heat transfer and this is more
efficient at higher temperatures, enabling higher burning temperatures to be achieved. Also,
because the clinker is constantly moving within the kiln, a fairly uniform clinkering temperature
is achieved in the hottest part of the kiln, the burning zone.
The two other principal technical developments, gypsum addition to control setting and
the use of ball mills to grind the clinker, were also introduced at around the end of the 19th
century.

Cement Definition:
Cement is a binder, a substance that sets and hardens independently, and can bind
other materials together such as sand, bricks (civil material).
Cement is defined as a hydraulic binder which when mixed with water forms a paste
which sets and hardens by mass of hydration reaction and processes and which after hardening,
retains its strength and hardening even under water,
Cement used in construction is characterized as hydraulic or non-hydraulic. Hydraulic
cements (Portland cement) harden because of hydration chemical reactions that occur
independently of the mixture's water content; they can harden even underwater or when
constantly exposed to wet weather. The chemical reaction that results when the anhydrous
cement powder is mixed with water produces hydrates that are not water-soluble.
Material made by heating a mixture of limestone and clay in a kiln at about 1450 C, then
grinding to a fine powder with a small addition of gypsum.
Combination of C3A, C3S, C2S, C4AF and mix gypsum in few quantity is called cement.
Wet Process
Dry Suspension (SP) Process
Dry Pre calciner (PC) Process (Present time use)
Wet Process: These plant are characterized by low technology, low capacity, high man power and
high energy consumption.the maximum capacity of the wet process plant operating in India is only
300 TPD.
Dry Suspension (SP) Process: In SP plant, the ground raw meal is feed to a four stage Pre-heater
system.the hot air coming out of kiln is used for pre heating the could feed entering the system.
The material as it comes out of pre heater enters the kiln partial calcined (about 40%) at a
temperature of 800OC. the kiln is used only for carrying out the remaining calcinations and sintering.
The cooling of clinker is done in the cooler and cooler air is used back in the kiln for combustion.
Generally ball mill used for grinding limestone.
Dry Pre Calciner (PC) Process:the dry Pre-calciner plant is advancement over the dry SP plant.
An additional vessel called the Precalciner is provided. The ground raw meal after getting preheated
in the pre heater system (6 stage pre-heater) enters the calciner. The fuel is partly (extant of 60%)
fired in the calciner. The additional heated is used for completing the calcinations reaction before
the material enters the kiln. the kiln is used only for carrying out the sintering reaction. Generally
VRM and roll press used for grinding limestone.

Effects
If SM High
Result in hard burning, high fuel consumption,
difficulty in coating formation, radiation from shell
is high, deteriorates the kiln lining
If AM High
Impacts harder burning, high fuel consumption,
Increases C3A decreases C4AF, reduces liquid phase
& kiln output, if AM is too low and raw mix is
without free silica, clinker sticking and balling is too
high.
A higher LSF
Make it difficult to burn raw mix, increases C3S,
reduces C2S, deteriorates refractory lining, increases
radiation from shell, increases kiln exit gas
temperature.
A higher silica
Increases fuel and power consumption, causes
difficulty in coating formation, deteriorates
refractory, increases radiation of heat kiln shell,
A higher MgO
Favours dissociation of C2S and CaO and lets C3S
form quickly, tends the balling easy in the burning
zone and affects kiln operation.
A high alkali
Improves burnability at lower temperature &
deteriorates at higher, increase liquid content and
coating formation, lowers the solubility of CaO in
melt, breaks down alite & belite phases, creates
operational problem due to external & internal cycle.
A higher Sulphur compound
Acts as an effective mineraliser and modifier of
alkali cycle by forming less volatiles,
A higher fluorides
Leads to modify the kinetic of all burning reaction ,
lowers the temperature of C3S formation by 150-200
A higher chlorides
Higher Cl forms more volatiles % causes operational
problem due to its complete volatilization in burning
zone, increases liquid formation & melting point of
the absorbed phase is drastically change.

ions that leaves large holes in the crystal lattice. Essentially, the ions do not fit together very well,
causing the crystal structure to have a high internal energy. As a result, C3S is highly reactive.
The C3S that forms in a cement clinker contains about 3-4% of oxides other than CaO and SiO2.
Strictly speaking, this mineral should therefore be called alite rather than C3S. However, as discussed
in Section 3.2, we will avoid using mineral names in this monograph. In a typical clinker the C3S
would contain about 1 wt% each of MgO, Al2O3, and Fe2O3, along with much smaller amounts of
Na2O, K2O, P2O5, and SO3.These amounts can vary considerably with the composition of the raw
materials used to make the cement, however. Of the three major impurities, Mg and Fe replace Ca,
while Al replaces Si.
One effect of the impurities is to stabilize the monoclinic structure, meaning that the structural
transformation from monoclinic to triclinic that would normally occur on cooling is prevented. Most
cements thus contain one of the monoclinic polymorphs of C3S.
There exist seven known polymorphs between room temperature and 1070 oC: three triclinic (denoted
with T), three monoclinic (M) and one rhombohedral (R) polymorph. Due to incorporations in the alite
crystal lattice, M1 and M3 polymorphs are present mostly in industrial clinker. Cooling clinker from
1450oC, inversion of the R polymorph to M3 and further more to M1 occurs, forming small crystals (M3)
rich in substituents or large crystals, poor in substituted ions (M1). Especially, high MgO- concentrations
promote high nucleation, resulting in formation of small automorphic M3- crystals.The different
polymorphs do not show significant differences in the hydraulic properties.

Because So3 is found in BaSO4 Form
= (SO3/BaSO4)*100 = (80/137+32+64)*100 = (80/233)100 =0.3433*100 = 34.33
IR (max %) =
X+4 (100-X)
(Note: X= % of Fly ash)

Important Note.
= In PPC Cement Fly ash use not less than 15% and not more than 35%
=In PSC Cement Slag use not less than 25% and not more than 70%
= Endothermic reaction occurs in kiln & Pre heater.
= Exothermic reaction occurs in bomb calorimeter.
= Coal analysis sample size is (pass 212) -212 micron.
= 3.14 density of Portland cement.
= Di butyl thylate use in manometer (Blain apparatus) due to low density &viscosity, non volatile,
non hygroscopic liquid. (Air Permeability test).
= In CST, Cube Breaking Speed 35 N/mm2 or 2.9 Kn/s (only For Cube Size 70.5mm)
= During the calibration of CST/Balance maintain 272 or slandered equipment calibrated
temperature, otherwise use factor K= 0.027% with obtained value.
= Cement Expired as per BIS,in Bag 3 month and in bulk 6 months. (IS-8112)
= purity of gypsum = CaSO4/ SO3 = 172/80 = 2.15(factor)
= 1.6 ton CO2 generate in 1 ton clinker Production.
= 1.8 GJ/t Energy consumed for 1 ton clinker production in 6 stage Pre heater.
= Chromic Acid use forwashing glass ware. (10gm K2Cr2O7 + 200 ml H2SO4)
K2Cr2O7 + 4 H2SO4
X-ray: =
n= 2d sin
(n= number of wave, = wave length, d= distance two layer, sin= angle of wave)
When bombarding of cathode ray on high melting point metal than reflected ray is called X ray.
= C3S + H2O
