6 FAQs about [Photovoltaic cement support production]

Can solar clinker be used for cement production?

For the first time ever, CEMEX and Synhelion successfully connected the clinker production process with the Synhelion solar receiver, producing solar clinker. This revolutionary innovation is an initial step to develop fully solar-driven cement plants.

Can solar energy be used in cement production?

Recently the use of solar energy in cement production has drawn significant research and scientific interest. Licht et al. (2012) developed a method for cement production, which results into near zero CO 2 emissions.

How clinker can be produced from concentrated solar radiation?

The Synhelion and CEMEX R&D teams set up a pilot batch production unit to produce clinker from concentrated solar radiation by connecting the clinker production process with the Synhelion solar receiver. The pilot was installed at the Very High Concentration Solar Tower of IMDEA Energy, located in Spain.

What is a novel Cement production process?

The conceptual design of a novel cement production process has been developed during the SolCement research project. Fossil fuels used for limestone calcination are replaced by concentrated solar energy. Also, a Thermochemical energy Storage Reactor - TSR is used for transferring energy between daytime and nighttime operation.

Should cement plants be solarized?

Typically, more polluting solid fuel sources, such as petcoke, are used in several cement plants. However, NG was selected as the cleanest possible choice among fossil fuels (Fadayini et al., 2021) to compare the potential of solarizing cement plants with the "best case" scenario.

When will solar clinker production start?

Synhelion and Cemex introduced the first solar clinker production in a small-scale pilot process in early 2022. “From the pilot installation, we foresee completing our first small-scale industrial plant in Móstoles by 2026,” a company spokesperson told pv magazine.
