The cement manufacturing process requires a mixture of elements and minerals to ensure that the cement products perform to the expected standards of our customers in their end-use applications. To achieve this mixture, some off-site raw materials are required which in some cases are only available from long distances.

The two main sources of NO formation in the cement industry are the combustion processes in the rotary kiln and calciner. Despite the rising demand for concrete around the globe, legislations for NO emis- sion from cement plants have become increasingly strict. This has led to application and development of technologies to reduce NO in the ce-

Cement production is an energy-intensive process consuming thermal energy of the order of 3.3 GJ/tonne of clinker produced. Electrical energy consumption is about 90 – 120 kWh/tonne of cement (Giddings, et al, 2000; European Commission [EC] 2001). Historically, the primary fuel used in cement industry is coal.
