Having only just commissioned the grinding plants for kiln unit no. VII, Kolkata-based Shree Cement Limited placed a further repeat order with Gebr Pfieffer.

This time RAS works will see Gebr Pfieffer AG and its Indian subsidiary Gebr Pfieffer (India) Pvt. Ltd. supply a grinding plant for raw meal and a grinding plant for petroleum coke for its kiln unit no. VIII.

An MPS 3750 B with a power rating of 1600kW will form the core of the raw meal grinding plant. The mill is designed to grind 215tph to a fineness of 2% R212µm. For the production of the pulverised petroleum coke, with which the cement kiln will be fired, an MPS 225 BK vertical roller mill has been chosen for a capacity of 15tph at a fineness of 2 % R90µm. This high degree of fineness will be attained by passing the material through an SLS-BK high-efficiency classifier of the latest generation integrated in the MPS mill.
