Research on the Changes of Cement Production Method in China

Abstract

Cement production plays an important role in affecting total amount of greenhouse gases emission. In recent years, China’s cement production begins to maintain below an exact point instead of following the continuous growing trend that experts anticipate. Until today, most people are still unaware of transition of China’s cement production method. Therefore, this paper focuses on investigating changes of cement production method in China. The method of investigating these changes is analyzing previous cement production situation of China, then listing three cement production method which two of them are traditional methods and another one New Suspension Preheater (NSP) rotary kiln production is new method and comparing environmental effect caused by three methods respectively, and finally analyzing benefits of new production method and other action the government take to mitigate greenhouse effect and showing their effects. Research result shows that NSP rotary kiln production has advantages over traditional production methods and almost all the factories in China are using this production method.
