Question:

How much cement can be produced per ton of limestone

How much cement can be produced per ton of limestone

Answer:

This can generally give you see, this is our raw material proportion of limestone powder 83%, 1.3%, 14%, siltstone, bauxite and high aluminum ore 1.6%, raw material ratio 1.6, namely the production of one ton of clinker requires 1.6 tons of raw materials for production of cement grinding, cement grade, clinker ratio is not the same as the average. At 70%, a ton of limestone raw material production of 1/83%=1.2 tons, 1.2 tons of clinker production of 1.2/1.6=0.75 tons of raw materials, the raw material production of 0.75/70%=1.1 tons of cement.
This is mainly related to two factors, one is the calcium oxide content of limestone, when the content of calcium oxide in limestone is low, such as 48%, a ton of limestone can produce 0.75 tons of cement clinker, when calcium oxide content reached about 54% tons of cement clinker, a limestone can produce 0.9 tons of the left and right; two is the type of cement, admixture of different cement types vary greatly, such as Portland cement not only gypsum admixture, B, type of slag cement admixture can be 70%, the same amount of cement clinker can be produced is also great, different varieties of cement is so different, you can according to the amount of clinker go to the conversion into the corresponding variety of cement quantity.
