Calculation Material Balance

This document contains a material balance calculation for a cement plant producing 3,300 tons of cement per day. It calculates the raw material requirements including limestone, clay, coal, and gypsum based on chemical analyses and process assumptions like conversion rates. Stoichiometric reactions are used to determine the lime, silica, carbon dioxide, and oxygen requirements for the kiln process. The summary provides an overview of the inputs, outputs, and calculations involved in the material balance for the cement production process.

Kiln feed to clinker factor =


Raw Meal to Clinker Factor x (100) / Top Stage Cyclone Efficiency
Raw meal to clinker factor 1.55

Kiln feed to clinker factor 1.68


Raw meal to clinker factor = 100 – ash absorbtion / 100 – LOI

Ash absorbtion = % of ash in fuel x specific fuel consumption

Specific fuel consumption = kg coal kg clinker = Specific heat consumption NCV of coal
