"Cement plant production technology is one of the most important topics in civil engineering. Many books have been written this topic. This modest effort is another pearl in the sequence. This book has been designed in mind the mentality of the general reader\'s language which is easy to understand. The aim of this book is to provide students with a clear concise and comprehensive introduction to the theory and practice of cement plant production technology.

This book embodies results and data of researches carried out by renowned professionals, plant technologists and quality control professionals. It is an excellent material for plant engineers, a provocative compendium for researchers and  a useful book for students in the field of cement technology." (Jacket)
