A new clinker cooler for Wossingen - installed in existing plant

摘要

Within the framework of a modernization project at Wossingen cement plant, a new preheater tower and clinker cooler was constructed without interrupting plant operation. During a plant stoppage in spring 2009, this will be connected up to the existing infrastructure and put into operation. In order to keep the conveying distances between the new kiln line and the existing plant sections as short as possible, the new line had to be built close to the existing kiln. The confined space conditions demanded a somewhat unconventional approach to the construction work sequence.
