CO2-reduced cement production: pilot plant for tempered clays goes into operation

© Rohrdorfer Unternehmensgruppe


The new pilot plant for tempered clays at the Rohrdorf cement plant successfully went into operation at the beginning of July. In the plant, raw clay is activated (“tempered”) through thermal treatment. The aim of the plant is to research tempered clays, as these can be used as a lower-CO₂ alternative to clinker, the main component of cement.

Limestone pelletizing: A technical overview
In the international fertilizer industry, the terms “granulation” and “pelletizing” are used synonymously to describe the agglomeration of fine-grained materials. Accordingly, the resulting products are referred to as either “granules” or “pellets.” The choice of terminology in this publication follows the established and well-known SCARABAEUS pelletizing disc, and for consistency, the term “pelletizing” is used throughout the remainder of the article.

Martin® X-Stand improves air cannon efficiency and safety

© 2025 Martin Engineering


Martin Engineering has introduced a heavy-duty air cannon mounting system. The Martin X-Stand is an organization system that safely keeps air cannons away from super-heated or potentially hazardous areas while offering easy service access. The result is clearer walkways, improved safety, and greater maintenance efficiency for a lower cost of operation. “Though secure when held in place by pipework, air cannons can be precariously placed around preheaters, hoppers, and drop chutes, making them hard to get around or reach by maintenance crews,” said Sid Dev, Product Manager of Air Cannons at Martin Engineering. “Some of these applications can also be in high-heat environments in loading zones, so we worked with customers to formulate a more practical and long-term solution. The X-Stand ended up having more benefits than we initially thought!”
