For the purpose of the efficiency improvement of the existing tube mill for finishing process, a vertical roller mill for pre-grinding of clinker is installed in the upstream of the tube mill. The structure that has the turn table and 2~4 rollers to mill clinker is basically the same as vertical roller mills for raw materials. But the roller mill for pre-grinding have no classifier and air sweep. The pre-ground clinker is discharged outside mill, and separated with vibrating screen. The coarse particles are circulated to pre-grinding system, and the fine particles are fed to finishing tube mill.

Benefits

Specific power consumption in finishing process: 10%-20% reduction

Co-benefits

Grinding capacity of finishing tube mill: 30-60% increase

Succes factors and requirements

This technology is related to vertical mill applied to other process.
