New cement plant near Tuban
PT Holcim Indonesia Ptk., Jakarta, one of the biggest cement manufacturers in Indonesia, contracted ThyssenKrupp Polysius to supply a new 4000 t/d cement clinker production plant. The new plant is to be built on the northern coast of the island of Java near the town of Tuban. ThyssenKrupp Polysius is supplying modern plant components from the raw material preparation system to the clinker manufacturing process and on to the cement loading facility and fuel preparation system. A POLAB® laboratory automation system will ensure product quality in every phase of the process. The new plant is scheduled to start production in 2013. Indonesia‘s rapidly growing economy, coupled with a government programme for expanding and improving the country‘s infrastructure, have led to an increasing demand for cement. Indonesian cement manufacturers can only keep pace with the rise in demand by increasing their cement production capacities. www.polysius.com
