White cement factory

Saveh White cement factory

Year of establishment: 1988
Production rate: 1000 tons per day
Production line: design and installation of FCB France
SAVEH White Cement Factory was established in November-December 1988 with a capacity of 500 tons per day, and with the implementation of the development plan, its capacity has increased 1000 tons per day. The technology used in the factory of white cement production is obtained from F.C.B. This technology is based on “wet” production and its use for cement production increases the degree of whiteness above 92% and increases its mechanical strength, too. The white cement production line was designed and installed by FCB France.

How to prepare white cement

There is a kind of complexity in the production and manufacture of white cement compared to gray cement, and many materials other than lime are needed to whiten the color of cement. Therefore, colored elements such as iron oxides, chromium, titanium and manganese should be zero in the raw materials. For this purpose, you should use limestone with high purity and quality, as well as white kaolin, which does not contain colored oxides. The first step for the production of cement is the preparation of high-quality clinker, which will lead to the production of white clinker in the process of baking in the oven. It should be noted that in the next step, when the clinker is crushed in the mill, some gypsum is used to whiten and increase the strength of the product (cement).
