Development and Application of a Cement Raw Meal Controller

The development and implementation of a cement raw meal controller are illustrated. The study has established that the controller parameters shall be adjusted and optimized under the existing field of application. The optimization was performed by the utilization of actual production data and simulation studies. The control action follow-up was carried out using the control chart technique. The application of the controller not only improves the raw meal stability but also facilitates the inquisition on probable deviation sources. By utilizing the controller and the developed simulation, a series of further improvements can be considered.
