Download or read book Handbook for Designing Cement Plants written by S P Deolalkar and published by . This book was released on 2021-03 with total page 1190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first Edition of the book came out in 2008. It covered all aspects of Designing Cement Plants- mainly Dry Process Cement Plants with 6 stage Preheaters and Calciners, Vertical Mills, Electro Static Precipitators and various auxiliary machineries as were prevalent then. The base size for various workouts was 3000 TPD as was prevalent then. It has begun to dawn on Cement Industry that it was responsible for emitting 5 % of the most common greenhouse gas - CO2. Cement Industry and Cement Plant and Process Designers began to apply their minds to make - GREEN Cement. - which emitted greenhouse gas in much less quantities by making blended cements, using alternate fuels and by recovering waste heat. Mr. Deolalkar's book 'Designing Green Cement Plants' dealing with these aspects came out in 2013. Cement Industry was also growing in size simultaneously and the base size of 3000 TPD has been replaced by cement plants of + 10000 TPD or + 3mtpa capacity cement plants, requiring sea changes in machinery used therein. This Second Edition of the Handbook includes all aspects of the basic concepts dealt with in the Handbook but also includes aspects of making green cement. The base capacity is now 10000 TPD. Therefore it has been named Handbook for Designing Green Cement Plants. This book will also be found to be very useful to the Cement Industry. Author's two books mentioned above have been included in the top 20 books related to Cement Industry in the World.Contents: Section - 1 Basics Section - 2 Machinery Used in Making cement Section - 3 Technoeconomic Feasibility Studies Section - 4 Civil Design and Construction Section - 5 Electricals and Instrumentation Section - 6 Layouts and Detailed Engineering Section - 7 Selecting and Ordering Machinery Section - 8 Sustainable Development Section - 9 Web Pages Section 10 - Sources Section 11 - Recommended Reading

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plant engineers are responsible for a wide range of industrial activities, and may work in any industry. This means that breadth of knowledge required by such professionals is so wide that previous books addressing plant engineering have either been limited to only certain subjects or cursory in their treatment of topics. The Plant Engineering Handbook offers comprehensive coverage of an enormous range of subjects which are of vital interest to the plant engineer and anyone connected with industrial operations or maintenance. This handbook is packed with indispensable information, from defining just what a Plant Engineer actually does, through selection of a suitable site for a factory and provision of basic facilities (including boilers, electrical systems, water, HVAC systems, pumping systems and floors and finishes) to issues such as lubrication, corrosion, energy conservation, maintenance and materials handling as well as environmental considerations, insurance matters and financial concerns. One of the major features of this volume is its comprehensive treatment of the maintenance management function; in addition to chapters which outline the operation of the various plant equipment there is specialist advice on how to get the most out of that equipment and its operators. This will enable the reader to reap the rewards of more efficient operations, more effective employee contributions and in turn more profitable performance from the plant and the business to which it contributes. The Editor, Keith Mobley and the team of expert contributors, have practiced at the highest levels in leading corporations across the USA, Europe and the rest of the world. Produced in association with Plant Engineering magazine, this book will be a source of information for plant engineers in any industry worldwide. * A Flagship reference work for the Plant Engineering series * Provides comprehensive coverage on an enormous range of subjects vital to plant and industrial engineer * Includes an international perspective including dual units and regulations
