Long-lasting photovoltaic container used in Indian cement plants

4 FAQs about Long-lasting photovoltaic container used in Indian cement plants

Which cement plant is used for solar thermal application?

Location and DNI availability of the investigated plant A conventional cement plant (Kotputli Cement Works (KCW), an UltraTech Cement Limited manufacturing unit) at Kotputli, Jaipur, Rajasthan, was investigated for solar thermal application.

How do cement plants use solar energy?

Cement plants would harness solar energy by using solar reactors. The reactor concentrates the solar energy to provide heat and depending on the reactor's location, it is possible to obtain two different solarisation designs for the calcination step (Meier et al., 2005; González and Flamant, 2014; Meier et al., 2006).

Can concentrated solar thermal (CST) technology be used in a cement plant?

González and Flamant (2014) investigated the technical and financial viability of concentrated solar thermal (CST) technology in a conventional cement plant, whose daily production capacity was 3000 tons of cement clinker.

Can a solar power system save CO2 in cement industry?

Concentrated solar power system is designed for cement industry. Substitution of required thermal energy ranging from 100% to 50% is studied. 7600 heliostats with 570 ha land required for 50% conventional energy replacement with solar energy. Selected conventional cement plant could save 419 thousand tons of CO 2 annually.
