Mixing is done in a mechanical mixer having a revolving speed of 24 cycles/min. The mixing process consists of two stages: in the first stage, aggregates (fine aggregate and RCA) with half of the total water are mixed for about 4 min, and in the second stage, cement with remaining half of water is added to the mixer and the mixing continues for next 4 min. …
Molasses increases the water requirement due to the development of cement particle fineness and specific surface when beet molasses is used as a …
grinding technology in the cement indus-try. Mills of various types are used in cement works, from grinding the raw material through to crushing the clinker into fine powder. Alongside vertical and ball mills, HPGRs have proved suitable for a wide range of applications. In a bid to increase production capacity, Austrian

Meanwhile, it is an urgent concern to find a cheap alternative to the present Portland cement grinding aids. However, the available literature has several limitations in properly evaluating the feasibility of ...
Most of the energy usage is in cement production drives end-use, a lot of power is consumed in the processes of cement grinding, raw material crushing, and materials transport, cement transport. The cement industry natural gas consumption is concentrated in the process of heating end use (about 90% of total gas consumption), which involves ...
Earlier we considered a mixture of which materials is used in cement production. The base of this mixture is a clinker. In this article, we will consider the composition of clinker and its impact on grinding balls deterioration in milling …
The acetic acid is used for the manufacture of grinding admixtures in the cement industry. The most admixtures used by commercial milling are mixtures of amine acetates, glycols and sugars.
lignosulphonate and molasses-based admixtures were 1.19 g/dm 3 and 1.20 g/dm, respectively. Sucrose ratios of the molasses were 51.2% and 47.3% and 48.4% for Mix design Fourteen series of concretes were prepared. Two different cement dosages were used in the concretes, such as 270 kg/m 3 and 320 kg/m . A series of concretes
"Improvement of mechanical strengths by the use of grinding aids: optimisation of sulphate content in cement " By Davide Padovani, Matteo Magistri - Mapei SpA, Italy Abstract A key point i n cement technology is the improvement of mechanical properties, particularly in terms of compressive strengths.
The molasses-added cement pastes show expanded setting times even in 0.4% dosage, and the higher the molasses dosage, the longer the setting time. According to this result its clear that molasses has water reducing and retarding effect on concrete, to use molasses as water reducing and retarding mixture. ACKNOWLEDGMENT
Concrete Grinding Gear to Get Started: Before you initiate smoothing concrete with an angle grinder, it is critical to have the required tools at hand. Here is a list of all the tools one calls for to grind a concrete surface: An angle grinder – the overall concept is that it should have a cutting edge of 4-7 inches in width. You may likewise ...
If you've been to any trendy Australian cafes lately you may have noticed a common trend that everyone is going crazy for. Polished concrete floors modernise any room and are a durable flooring alternative that looks better than floorboards or tiles. It is a long process requiring expertise and patience and this is achievable with a powerful piece of equipment known as a …
The study confirmed that the use of 10 % of grinding glass improved the compressive, flexure strength of concrete by about (30, 11.64)%, respectively at 240 days compared to …
Molasses shows plasticizing effect in concrete. In this study a comparison is made between molasses with 40% purity grade and lignosulphonate with respect to the improvements in properties of concrete. Three molasses obtained from different sugar factories are used in this study at two admixture dosages, such as 0.4% and 0.7% of cement dosage.
An adding up of two dissimilar, i.e., 0.5% with 1% of molasses diminish water to cement ratio and also affects the durability of concrete adversely and declines the price value of concrete ...
Cement grinding consumes a major part of the total energy used for the cement manufacturing. The constant absolute energy demand of the grinding system in relation to the adjustable production rate of the mill is expressed as specific energy consumption. Higher cement production rate leads
Steps of Grinding . 14 Grit: Use this grit if the concrete is extremely hard, has sealers on it, or a heavier profile for a coating is desired. Only use as the first step in polishing if absolutely necessary as it can take a lot of time to get the heavy scratches out left by 14 grit.
setting time was compared with and without the use of Molasses. The effect of Molasses on these properties of cement was compared with the effect of sugar on these properties of cement. The water-reducing effect in different mixes of cement-sand mortar (1:3, 1:4 and 1:5) has been
Molasses is generally used as a grinding aid in cement and as a water reducer and retarder in concrete. In China, the output primarily consists of sugarcane molasses. In this paper, the effects of sugarcane molasses on the physical performance and hydration chemistry of conventional Portland cement were investigated. The setting times, the normal consistency of …
Use of molasses along with the addition of borax as binding agent in producing light substances that provide thermal insulation positively affects tensile strength (Benk and Çoban, 2012). Use of gypsum as an admixture delays setting period of cement, and when molasses added to it, the setting period length increases even more.
Gao et al. (2011) proved that beet molasses can be recycled as a blended cement grinding aid. Although current efforts are admirable, there still remains some important points that need to be systematically clarified, in order to make more effective use of cane molasses as a cement grinding aid. The central reasons are listed as follows. (1)
The possibility of using beet molasses as a grinding aid for blended cements has been investigated in this study. It has been found that the addition of 0.01–0.05% molasses by cement weight can improve the particle size distribution and strength development of the blended cement. When comparing with the blank cement mixture, the cement ...
