May 2020

The May 2020 issue of Global Cement Magazine has a strong slag theme to tie in with the Global Slag Virtual Conference on 6 May 2020, (with the live Global Slag Conference now following in November 2020). We speak to ZAG International's Charlie Zeynel about recent slag / SCM trends and visit the Ecocem Dunkirk plant in France, the most modern in the Ecocem Group, while Vortex offers slag handling advice. Elsewhere in the issue, there is a full plant report from the HeidelbergCement Burglengenfeld facility in Bavaria, Germany - to tie in with the Global CemProcess Virtual Conference on 21 - 22 April 2020. Plus technical articles on emissions monitoring and reduction, digitisation, gears and fans and a review of the cement industries of Switzerland and Austria.
