Quality control Question 52
We would like to use phospho-gypsum in place of mineral gypsum in our cement plant. Please advice us of its suitability. Phospho-gypsum has 36 per cent moisture and pH is 2.3. The cost of using this material is very low but what are the drawbacks?

Quality control Question 53
We have ESP at the kiln system. It is also used for raw mill system. System is sent ESP's feedback to kiln feeding silo. There are two homogeneous silos and two stockage silos. Material is sent from ESP to homogeneous silos. So, my question is that, I am thinking to feed the ESP's feedback directly to preheater system but this line will be entered to system after weighfeeder. We have got line to feed this material before weighfeeder but it causes to reduce of fresh feeding. In this way I want to increase clinker production with same feeding amount. What do you think?

Re: Quality control
There might be a problem in the sampling station. More likely you have a problem of segregation of the material. This is most likely when you are reclaiming the end-cones of the pile or in the intermediate feed bin between the pile and the raw mill. One solution is to add the end-cone to the next pile rather than sending it to the raw mill. The intermediate bin should be kept at a high level by setting the reclaimer start signal to a high bin level.
