GEOSCAN-C

Cement operations lose value when quarry and raw material variability drives unstable LSF, SM, AM, corrective additive demand or kiln feed chemistry. GEOSCAN-C continuously measures raw material, stockpile and raw mix chemistry, providing the real-time data needed to improve blending, reduce variation and support stable cement production.

Key Benefits

Maintain consistent raw mix quality to cement production processes

Reduce reliance on delayed laboratory results

Detect and respond to raw material variability early

Enable data driven operational decisions

Support stockpile management and raw material blending strategies

Proven Performance

The GEOSCAN-C is deployed globally across cement operations, delivering reliable performance in demanding environments

Continuous operation in harsh industrial conditions

No wear parts, resulting in low maintenance requirements

Proven performance across a wide range of cement raw materials

Supported by a global service and support network

Technology

GEOSCAN-C uses Prompt Gamma Neutron Activation Analysis (PGNAA) to measure elemental composition across the full conveyed flow of raw materials and raw mix. The analyser provides representative, full-stream chemistry data for raw material control, stockpile management and raw mill feed optimisation.

Applications

Typical applications within cement operations include:

  • Quarry and raw material monitoring
  • Stockpile building and reclaim control
  • Raw mix quality control
  • Raw mill feed monitoring
  • Alternative fuel quality monitoring

Role in Process Control

The GEOSCAN-C operates as part of a broader measurement and control strategy within cement operations.

It enables:

  • Feed forward control of raw milling and downstream production processes
  • Feedback control of quarry blending and stockpile management
  • Continuous monitoring of raw mix quality and composition
  • Continuous decision support for operators managing raw material variability

Unique Capabilities

  • Only analyser globally where average stockpile quality is guaranteed when used for measuring – no other vendor does this
  • Superior control of key cement quality parameters including LSF, SM and AM
  • Measures chlorine content accurately
  • Custom specification for different applications
  • Custom calibrations developed for specific materials and operating requirements – dynamic calibrations specified, now copied by other vendors
  • Proven on steel corded and chlorine containing conveyors
  • Non-contact with conveyor or material
