Cement production is highly energy intensive, and most plants worldwide are continuously seeking to increase use of alternative fuels to reduce the impact on the environment and increase process efficiency.
According to the European Cement Association there is no technical limitation for cement plants to increase use of alternative fuels up to 95 percent. With the industry moving rapidly in this direction, despite clear economic and environmental benefits, it also presents new challenges for process and equipment.
ABB's ProKiln patented technology sets new standards in measurement technology, ensuring accurate measurement values without interference from dust or process gas mixtures.
