ANSYS Paves the Way for Economic and Environmental Improvements in Cement Manufacturing

To make cement manufacturing more environmentally responsible, Germany-based aixprocess has been investigating replacing traditional fossil fuels with alternative fuels. “By using software from ANSYS, we have been able to analyze the effects of replacing 40 percent of the traditional fuels used in an existing cement factory with alternative fuels,” said Martin Weng, co-founder of aixprocess. "We must compensate with increased oxygen pressure and an intensified materials blending process. Real-world testing to reach this same conclusion would have taken much longer and been far more expensive."
