Dust and fume extraction systems to reduce emissions, minimize health hazards and ensure efficiency in cement plants.

Cement production is characterized by complex processes with challenges related to dust collection.

Traditionally the emission of dust, particularly from kiln stacks, has been a significant concern in relation to manufacturing ofcement. The main sources of dust are kilns, raw mills, clinker coolers and cement mills. In all these processes large volumes of gases are flowing through dusty materials. Also, dust emissions can arise during the storage and handling of materials and solid fuels, as well asfrom the conveying systems used to move cement and other bulk materials around.

Whether these dust emissions are lightweight and fine, or hard and abrasive, they can have a harmful impact on the employees’ health, production and the environment.
