3. The Process Involved
• The right amount of raw materials
are processed into a high-
temperature burner called the
‘PRECALCINER BURNER’
• The by-product is then processed
into a ‘ROTARY KILN’ which in turn
produces a hardened substance
called ‘CLINKER’
• This ‘CLINKERS’ are then finely
powdered and then mixed with
‘GYPSUM’ and other minerals such
as ‘LIMESTONE’ to produce the grey
powder commonly known as
‘cement’
4. Cement is the Main Building Element for:
• Concrete slabs and
foundations for
buildings, roads and
bridges
• Precast panels,
blocks, and roofing
tiles
• Fence posts,
reservoirs and railway
sleepers
• Stabilisation of roads
and rocky surfaces
