Austria: Germany-based Loesche has received an order to supply a new raw materials grinding plant to LafargeHolcim subsidiary Lafarge Zement’s Mannersdorf cement plant. The plant will consist of a type LM 45.4 mill, a LSKS type classifier, a rotary feeder, a magnetic separator, a conveyor, a pair of Hurriclons, a mill fan and the ‘Digital Ready 4.0!’ digital package. Loseche’s subsidiaries Kingsblue and AixProcess are responsible for the digital products and A-Tec for the Hurriclons. Commissioning is scheduled by the end of February 2022.

Cement and ore head of sales Stefan Baaken said, "Many cement plants in Europe are facing similar challenges to our customer in Mannersdorf. For us as an original equipment manufacturer and also for the customer, the new grinding plant is an important signpost towards more energy-efficient and sustainable cement production.”

Ireland: A TEC GRECO Combustion Systems Europe GmbH has been awarded a contract by Irish Cement's Platin Works to deliver a new kiln burner for its kiln line 3.

At Platin Works, the 4300t/day FLS kiln uses petcoke and alternative fuels. The modern concept of A TEC GRECO´s Flexiflame® burner offers a high flame momentum to be able to control the flame shape according the required kiln- and process parameters in consideration of a high solid alternative fuel substitution rate.

The new Flexiflame® kiln burner will allow the plant to work more flexible with respect to future fuel supply scenarios. The new equipment is part of a policy to fulfil very strict environmental controls.
