Fives facilitates Suez Cement's fuel substitution strategy

In the framework of a firing conversion to coal and petcoke, Fives will deliver a new FCB TSV™ classifier to to Egypt-based producer Suez Cement Co for the modernisation of a vertical ball mill and the optimisation of solid fuel grinding plant operations.

Through the installation of its high efficiency third-generation classifier, Fives will enable Suez Cement  to increase grinding plant capacity by 17 per cent and consequently increase its fuel substitution rate.

The contract includes the basic engineering, detail design, equipment supply and site services.
