Book excerpt: Cement is one of the most basic building materials in the global construction industry. Nevertheless, although it occupies an important role in construction, its characteristics in the global sense are still relatively unknown. The findings in this book reveal, for example, that the manufacture of cement is predominantly capital intensive; that the production and distribution of cement is a highly vertically integrated trade; that the major cement producers resort to large scale price cutting when there are production surpluses; that geographical affinity can determine the flow of the global cement trade; and that the global demand for cement is erratic, and more.

Book excerpt: Cement is the basis of the building and construction industry and of fundamental importance for many civil engineering applications. As such, the cement industry is one of the key industries worldwide necessary for the current and future sustainable development of society. Despite its undisputed importance, the cement industry is one of those industrial branches predominately responsible for high energy consumption and excessive generation of large amounts of carbon dioxide and other contaminants that significantly endanger human health and the environment and contributes to global warming.In this context, nanomaterials, polymeric materials, and natural additives are being used for cement enhancement in various applications. This book examines these novel materials and their optimization, characterization, and sustainable application in the building industry and for stabilizing hazardous waste.

This book was released on 2023-02-04 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why include cement industry stock in your portfolio? As per ICRA, in FY22, the cement production in India is expected to increase by ~12% YoY, driven by rural housing demand and the government's strong focus on infrastructure development. As per Crisil Ratings, the Indian cement industry is likely to add ~80 million tonnes (MT) capacity by FY24, the highest in the last ten years, driven by increasing spending on housing and infrastructure activities. When is the best time to put money into this industry? FDI inflows in the industry related to the manufacturing of cement and gypsum products reached US$ 5.48 billion between April 2000-June 2022. As remote work remains adopted at a fast pace amid the pandemic, the demand for affordable houses, with a ticket size of

Download or read book Refractories for the Cement Industry written by Prasunjit Sengupta and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-08-26 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides process engineers with all of the information necessary for installation, maintenance and management of refractory in a cement industry. It describes how to characterize the refractory material and select refractories for various equipments in the cement plant. The author explains refractory installation, in general, and the rotary kiln specifically, as it is distinct from static furnaces used in metallurgical or process industries. It also details the chemical and physical factors that influence refractory performance and has discussed the mechanism of degradation of refractories with special emphasis on thermo-chemical and thermo-mechanical aspects. The heat transfer calculation and energy loss from the equipment surfaces has been addressed. A chapter in the book is dedicated for the management of refractory quality and the installation quality at the site. Maximizes reader understanding of the operating conditions in different equipments and how those are related to selection of refractories; Details the process variables and their influences on the performance of the refractories; Elucidates subtle points of refractory installation to ensure optimal performance; Presents heat transfer calculations and quality management protocols of refractory installation. Reinforces the concepts with many illustrations and tables.

This book was released on 2015-08-07 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of the research study is to evaluate the contribution of cement industry in the economic development of Pakistan. The study is basically a historical research and it covers all the developments made in the cement industry of Pakistan since its inception. The study reveals the importance of the cement sector for any economy by highlighting the major contributions of the industry in the economic development of Pakistan. The contribution of economic development of cement industry in the economic development is measured by the value addition of cement sector to Gross Domestic Product (GDP), employment opportunities created by the sector, receipts from exports, taxes paid to government and all revenues generated by the industry. The study reveals that the cement industry plays a key role in the economic development of Pakistan. The contribution of cement industry is very positive for not only the manufacturing sector but also for the overall economic development of Pakistan. The cement industry of Pakistan used to be a very tiny industry but it grew with the passage of time and ultimately it entered in the global market. The industry contributes in the Gross Domestic Product (GDP), it creates employment opportunities for thousands of people and it creates huge revenue for the government in the form of taxes. The cement industry of Pakistan attracted not only domestic investors but also foreign investors. At the end of the study, a critical evaluation of the cement industry, however discloses some major weaknesses of the industry. The industrys strengths, weaknesses, opportunities are also analyzed through SWOT analysis

Download or read book The Lehigh Valley Cement Industry written by Carol M. Front and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2005 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: America's portland cement industry began in the Lehigh Valley. The rich deposit of limestone known as the Jacksonburg Formation arcs through the valley from Berks County, Pennsylvania, to Warren County, New Jersey, and today it still provides the raw material for the Lehigh district's famous high-quality portland cement. Cement from the Lehigh Valley built America's skyscrapers, dams, and highways. The Lehigh Valley Cement Industry documents not only the quarries and cement mills but also the dozens of companies that sprang up to supply and support the industry. The photographs also tell the stories of the people who formed the cement communities—the entrepreneurs, executives, engineers, and immigrants whose legacies live on in the five multinational companies still making cement in the valley.
