A reactividade do clinquer

Abstract

A indústria cimenteira é uma indústria com grandes gastos energéticos, sendo por Isso de extrema importância, do ponto de vista económico, desenvolver estratégias e procedimentos que conduzam à sua minimização. O intuito da realização do presente trabalho foi estudar a reactividade do clínquer da Cimpor­ Centro de Produção de Loulé, ao introduzir alterações ao processo de fabrico de cimento. O estudo engloba três objectivos: C. Melhorar a qualidade do clínquer; C. Reduzir o consumo térmico do forno; C. Reduzir o consumo energético dos moinhos de cimento. Na paragem de Maio de 2008 foi instalado um novo redutor para o motor do forno que permitiu alterar a velocidade máxima de 2 para 3,5 rpm, o que consequentemente diminuiu a taxa de enchimento de ≈20% para ≈14%. Os resultados mostraram que com a alteração ao processo atingiram-se dois dos três objectivos pretendidos. Isto é, obteve-se um clínquer de melhor qualidade e houve uma diminuição do consumo térmico do forno. Contudo, não se conseguiram tirar conclusões acerca do consumo energético dos moinhos de cimento, sendo para tal, necessário prolongar o tempo do estudo. ABSTRACT: The cement industry is an industry with high energy costs and is therefore of extreme importance, in economic terms, to develop strategies and procedures that lead to its minimization. The purpose of this work was to study the reactivity of the clinker produced at Loulé Cimpor Production Center by introducing changes in the manufacture process of cement. The study comprised three main objectives: C. Improving the quality of the clinker; C. Reducing the heat consumption of the furnace; C. Reducing energy consumption of the cement mills. During the stop of May 2008 a new reducer was installed in the furnace motor which allowed changing the maximum speed of 2 to 3.5 rpm, which consequently decreased the rate of filling from ≈20% to ≈14%. The results showed that with the process modification, two of the three objectives were reached up. That is, a better quality of clinker was obtained and there was a decrease in the heat consumption of the furnace. However, during the period of this study it was not possible to draw a final conclusion about the energy consumption of the cement mills, and therefore, it is necessary to study the process for a longer period of time.
