Consider the following statements about kiln operation.
1. Gas and material flow counter-current to one another.
2. A precalciner allows a shorter kiln for the same output.
3. Rapid cooling of clinker reduces the strength of the cement.

  • A.3 only
  • B.1 only
  • C.All of them
  • D.1 and 2 only

Answer: D

The first two are correct. The third reverses the effect, since rapid cooling preserves the alite that gives the cement its strength and slow cooling is what harms it. Cooler performance therefore bears directly on cement strength.
