Research — Exergy destruction mapped across 62 cement kilns

A multi kiln study quantifies where exergy is destroyed in clinker production and identifies the largest improvement opportunities.

Researchers have mapped exergy destruction across 62 cement kilns, identifying preheater and cooler losses as the dominant sources. The dataset is open for validation and extension.
