Abstract

The cement clinker, the main raw material of cement, is manufactured using limestone as the main material. Depending on the quality of limestone, the use of subsidiary materials changes, and has a great influence on the production of cement clinkers. In this study, the effect of CaO content of limestone, a cement clinker material, on Raw Mill grinding and sintering of cement clinker was investigated. The grinding time of the union materials changed in the content of limestone CaO was measured to identify the grinding properties. The raw material combination was cleaned within a range of 1,350-1,500℃. The sintering performance of cement clinker by Burnability index calculation was identified. The lower the grade of limestone, the lower the grinding quality of the raw material combination. The lower the CaO content of limestone, the greater the variation in F-CaO for sintering temperature. The lower the class of limestone, the higher B. I. value was calculated, indicating the lower cement clinker sintering. In addition, the mineral analysis results of cement clinker showed that if the F-CaO value was low due to the increase in sintering temperature, the Belite content decreased and the Alite content increased. In the case of Alite, the ratio of R-type decreased and that of M-type increased as the content of limestone CaO increased.

시멘트의 주 원료인 시멘트 클링커는 주원료로서 석회석을 사용하여 제조되며, 석회석의 품위에 따라 부원료의 사용이 변화되고, 시멘트 클링커의 생산에도 큰 영향을 미치게 된다. 본 연구에서는 시멘트 클링커 원료인 석회석의 CaO 함량의 변화가 Raw Mill 분쇄성과 시멘트 클링커의 소성성에 미치는 영향성을 파악하기 위하여, 석회석 CaO 함량을 변화시킨 조합원료의 분쇄시간 측정으로 분쇄성을 비교 검토하였고, 분쇄된 조합원료를 1350~1500℃의 범위에서 소성하여 소성성 지수 계산에 의한 시멘트 클링커의 소성성을 파악하였다. 석회석의 품위가 낮을수록 조합원료의 분쇄성은 저하하였고, 석회석의 CaO 함량이 낮을수록 소성온도에 따른 F-CaO의 변화가 크게 나타났다. 그에 따라 높은 B.I. 값이 계산되어, 낮은 시멘트 클링커 소성성을 나타내었다. 또한, 시멘트 클링커의 광물분석 결과에서는 소성온도의 증가로 F-CaO 값이 저하하는 경우, Belite 함량의 감소와 그에 따른 Alite 함량의 증가가 관찰되었다. Alite의 경우 석회석 CaO 함량이 증가함에 따라 R형의 비율은 감소하고 M형의 비율이 증가하였다.
