Quality control and optimization of production processes

Cement production
Cement and the cement industry are fundamental to modern society. They ensure the strength and durability of structures, contribute to economic development and support infrastructure projects that shape our environment. The introduction of innovative technologies and practices in cement production helps to ensure sustainable development and minimize the negative impact on the environment.
Cement production is a complex technological process that requires careful control at all stages. The quality of raw materials and the final product directly affects the strength, durability and other characteristics of cement. In the face of increasing competition and increased quality standards, manufacturers strive to optimize production processes and ensure consistent product quality. This is where modern analytical tools come in, enabling accurate and fast measurements of material composition.

The Dumas method can be used to determine the content of chemical elements in cement. Analyzing the nitrogen content of raw materials is important to prevent the formation of nitrates and nitrites, which can degrade the quality of cement. High carbon content can affect the physical and mechanical properties of a material, making it less durable.

Sulfur and oxygen control avoids corrosion problems and other defects that can occur during the manufacturing process. Compliance with standards is essential to ensure the accuracy and reliability of analysis in cement industry laboratories. For example

ISO 29541:2010, “Solid mineral fuels — Determination of total carbon, hydrogen and nitrogen content — Instrumental methods”. This standard covers methods for determining the nitrogen content of mineral materials, which can be useful for the analysis of additives or impurities in cement.
Dumalyzer™ series analyzers are modern and reliable equipment for accurate analysis of the composition of raw materials and the final product in cement production. With it, you can quickly control the content of carbon, nitrogen, hydrogen, sulfur and oxygen, ensuring high quality and efficiency of production.
