Optimizing Cement Plant Efficiency with McON Air Compact Tertiary Air Measurement and Control

Unlock unparalleled efficiency in your cement production process with our state-of-the-art Tertiary Air Measurement and Control system. Designed specifically for monitoring and managing the tertiary air supply to the separate line calciner, this groundbreaking solution revolutionizes your operations.

Key Features:

1. Stabilizing Rotary Kiln Operation
Our advanced flow measurement system delivers precise readings of tertiary air, allowing operators to fine-tune ID fans for a steadier kiln. Since VFD-driven fans draw power proportional to the cube of the flow rate, even minor air offsets can cause a sharp rise in energy use. With reliable flow data, you maintain constant production efficiency, avoid energy spikes and reduce overall power costs.

2. Minimizing Calciner Downtime: By monitoring the calciner in real time, you catch anomalies as they occur, enabling proactive maintenance and preventing unscheduled shutdowns. Precise air-flow control protects your equipment from backflow, temperature surges, material deposits and abrasion – so you keep the line running smoothly.

3. Maximizing alternative fuel use: With accurate tertiary air measurement you achieve the optimal air-to-fuel ratio, making full use of your alternative fuels. That not only cuts your environmental footprint but also boosts cost efficiency and drives sustainable production.

4. Lower NOₓ emission, lower ammonia – measurable impact for plant and planet: Excess tertiary air in the calciner increases local oxygen levels, intensifying NOₓ formation in hot zones. By measuring and minimizing that excess precisely, operators can cut NOₓ emissions right at the source – often by 50% or more. This reduces the need for ammonia in SNCR or SCR systems, bringing down both reagent costs and the plant’s carbon footprint, given the high energy input required for NH₃ production. In short: smarter air management pays off, both ecologically and economically.

5. A Unique Measurement Solution – Where Others Fail, We Begin
Our non-intrusive, drift-free digital system is the only one of its kind on the market. Its innovative infrared approach to tertiary air measurement and control delivers precise, reliable results – even in highly abrasive and hot environments where conventional technologies reach their limits. We deliver accuracy where others give up.
