The plant is equipped with a leading clinker production line with a daily output of 2,000 tons and a supporting 12 MW power station, and the annual cement output will reach 800,000 tons after putting into operation. In the later stage, the product matrix of cement and clinker will be improved to realize the diversification of supply and effectively fill the gap of local high-end building materials. The factory adopts advanced energy-saving equipment and low-carbon calcination process, and builds a DCS automation control system covering the whole process to build an intelligent and green production demonstration line, which fully demonstrates the technical strength and environmental protection concept of China's manufacturing industry.
