Egypt: KHD is working with Amreyah Cement on a pyroprocess upgrade at its Borg El Arab cement plant, aimed at increasing alternative fuel use and improving plant efficiency. The scope of supply includes the installation of a Pyrorotor combustion reactor for alternative fuel processing, a preheater with high-efficiency cyclones and a new calciner within the existing structure, Pyrobox burners for calciner firing and a new Pyrojet main kiln burner. The project also includes installation of a new ID fan, tertiary air duct and downcomer duct.
KHD said that the Pyrorotor integration will enable higher alternative fuel substitution rates, improved combustion efficiency and enhanced process stability using low-quality, locally available fuels with minimal preprocessing.
Senior director of sales at KHD Farid Salehi said “This project underscores our commitment to delivering high-performance, innovative pyroprocessing solutions, while highlighting the strength of our partnership with Amreyah Cement in Egypt.”
