Question

What is the difference of wet and dry raw materials?

Answer 1

Answer:

In dry process all the materials in powder form are ground separated in the absence of water and then mixed in the desired proportion and the resultant product is fed into kiln for burning.

This process results less consumption of energy. And low quality of product is achieved in this method.

while, In wet process,

The raw materials(clay silica alumina) is purified by washing with water and then mixed with crushed limestone to get raw slurry liquid which is then fed to kiln for burning.

Energy comsumption is high in this process.

Produce good quality product.

Dust emission is low.
