Steps for
making aggregate cement
Aggregates form the basis of construction in our
country, which comprises of use of rocks, stone, sand, slag and also the
recycled cement. The composition of
different things are crushed or grounded up, to make them a fine mix of powder.
This whole process is considered to be the basis of aggregate cement. This is
quite a complex process to do, which is why it is important for different cement companies in India to follow the
steps as mentioned below;
Acquiring
raw materials
There are different ways in which raw materials can be
collected and brought to the final cement process. The established ways of
collecting these raw materials is through minding or at a gravel, sand pit etc.
These raw materials should be collected and it adds on to the first step of
aggregating cement which is further exposed to crushing process.
Crushing
material
Crushing is another important step for getting
aggregate cement, part of which is carried out with the help of quarries.
Aggregates are required to be crushed, but when it comes to aggregate cement,
they will have to be crushed again and again till the time it becomes finer
nothing less than a powder. So keep the crushing going on till a good and fine
powder is formed.
Sifting the
cement powder out
Once the cement powder is constantly crushed, it is
important to begin with sifting. Vibrating sifters have various filters, so if
the aggregate cement is crushed into fine powder, further it would fall from
the screen. The finest form of aggregate is sifted at the bottom, so it forms
the base material for forming the aggregate cement.
Cement powder is either left dry or is mixed with
water, and is then poured into kiln which has to be heated at a temperature of
either 3000 degrees and above. This process is carried out to remove any kind
of impurities from the cement, and thus the best form of cement powder is left
behind which is considered to be the strongest and the purest form of cement.
Project site delivery
The cement
processed and extracted from these steps is the purest form, which can now
possibly be used for construction. Thus this form is delivered to the
customers, to be used for its final use. Once these cements reach t customers,
it is mixed with water using cement trucks, and it consistently used for
building up strong and long lasting projects.
From above
it can thus be very well understood that aggregate cement is one of the best
quality cements which can be gained only after carrying out a series of steps
or processes. By following these steps, all recycling materials are used to
build up strong cement which can be used for building strong structures like
road, highways, railways, brides etc. One of the best parts of following these
steps is it makes use of all the recycled materials and saves a lot of money,
which is otherwise spent on the process of extraction of good quality cement
from the market or cement manufacturing companies.
