The diagrams below show the stages and equipment used in the coment-making process, and how coment is used to produce concrete for building purposes.

The diagram shows the process of

cement

production,

as well as

the procedure in which concrete is made from

cement

. The equipment used in

this

process is indicated.

Overall

, the process of producing

cement

consists of six stages, beginning with the crushing of limestone and clay and ending with presenting

cement

bags to the customers. After that, the concrete can be manufactured by mixing some materials

such

as concrete, water, gravel and sand in a concrete mixer.

Initially

, clay and limestone are passed through a crusher and converted into powder.

Then

, the powder was put into the mixer for complete blending.

Following

this

, the mixture undergoes heat treatment in a rotating heater prior to moving on to the grinding stage.

Next,

the compound is cut into small particles by the grinder.

Finally

,

cement

is packaged and presented to the market in bags.

Furthermore

, concrete can be produced by blending various components. These components include water (10%),

cement

(15%), gravel (50%) and sand (25%) which are placed in a concrete mixer and blended together. The final product is concrete.
