Magotteaux has started the modernisation of three cement mills for Kuwait Cement Co.

The project consists of closing the open circuit with a fourth-generation XP4®i separators, installing new mill internals, including diaphragms, and adapting a new ball charge gradation.

The aim of the project is to increase significantly the production rate, reduce the specific energy consumption and improve the product quality by reducing the residue on 45µm through keeping the same Blaine value, says Magotteaux.
