Along with aggregates and water, cement is the key ingredient in the production of concrete, and, as such, is an essential construction material
What's also changed over the years is the thought given to the plant's energy consumption. Producing cement is energy intensive – energy represents about 35% of the plant's production costs. The kiln gets up to 1,500 °C – hot enough to melt steel. And the plant isn't immune to the rising energy prices that have affected all of Ontario.
An energy audit is required to evaluate the operation of a cement plant against the benchmark of similar wellmanaged - plants. After a detailed evaluation of the current raw materials and operating parameters, benchmarks are adjusted to correspond to the specific conditions of the plant. Raw materials are a major variable in this evaluation.
