blasting process of limestone for cement

Portland-Limestone Cement

Portland-limestone cement (PLC) is a blended cement with a higher limestone content, which results in a product that works the same, measures the same, and performs the same, but with a reduction in carbon footprint of 10% on average. Sustainability encompasses many aspects designed to improve construction practices, including: more efficient

Sandblasting of concrete surfaces

The proper time to do the blasting is a question of economics. The concrete matrix will be easier to cut in the first 24 to 72 hours after casting. As the concrete cures and gains strength, it becomes m o r e difficult to blast to any appreciable depth, Fig 7. Close-up view of two wall sections after blasting.

In addition to pure limestone, Hooton and his team have also tested other potential cement clinker replacements for use in concrete. One of these is a substance known as blast furnace slag, a waste product of the iron and steel industry, which can be mixed with either Portland cement and Portland-limestone cement at levels of up to 75 per cent.

The Cement Industry

The cement manufacturing process requires the use of raw materials such as limestone and additives to control the alumina, silica and iron content. In addition, a relatively high amount of energy is needed to convert the limestone to calcium-oxide and to solidify and compress the material at 1,450°C.

Raw Mill In Limestone Dry Process

A raw mill is the equipment used to grind raw materials into "rawmix" during the manufacture of cement. Rawmix is then fed to a cement kiln, which transforms it into clinker, which is then ground to make cement in the cement mill.The raw milling stage of the process effectively defines the chemistry (and therefore physical properties) of the finished cement, and has a large effect upon the
