Alternative Usage of Raw Material and Fuel in Cement Plants: Case Study
Abstract
Turkish
Cement Sector uses industrial and domestic wastes as alternative fuels or raw
materials in licensed facilities. Increasing use of alternative fuels and raw
materials is very important in terms of eliminating environmental pollution,
saving natural material resources and energy. Alternative fuels can generally
be gathered under the groups of sewage sludge, waste oil, worn out tires,
solvent and paints. As for alternative raw materials, they can be evaluated undermine
waste, heat treatment waste, construction waste groups. The aim of this study
is to evaluate the use of alternative raw materials and fuels and their
environmental benefits. For this purpose, in a cement plant selected as a case study,
wastes accepted between 2013 and 2015, pre-acceptance analyzes, quantities of
alternative raw materials and fuels used, and their financial impacts are
examined. Iron scent, grid, casting sand and phosphogypsum are recycled as an
alternative raw material in the cement plant in accordance with quality
parameters. The use of
alternative raw materials resulted in savings totaling 7.031.998 TL for the
plant. As alternative fuel, sewage sludge is used. The financial benefit of
sewage sludge usage to the plant is 200.514.450 TL.
