CLIMATE-FRIENDLY CEMENT AND LIME PRODUCTION WITH AERZEN TURBO

AERZEN Turbo Blowers: Efficient Technology for Cooling and Combustion Air Supply in the Cement and Lime Industries

With Aerzen Turbo, compressor specialist AERZEN offers advanced technology that sets new standards in efficiency, performance, sustainability, and reliability—making it the ideal solution for cooling and combustion air supply in the cement and lime industries.

Cement and lime production is highly energy-intensive and harmful to the environment. To increase their future competitiveness, the industry is striving to reduce energy consumption and CO2 emissions. Cooling and combustion air supply present significant opportunities for optimization. Transitioning from traditional positive displacement blowers to AERZEN’s advanced turbo blowers can achieve substantial energy savings, benefiting the environment, reducing operational costs, and improving overall efficiency. It’s a true win-win solution.

Aerzen Turbo: Unbeatable Efficiency

The AERZEN G5plus turbo blower series is one of the most compact and efficient turbo blowers in its class. Compared to conventional turbo technology, it offers up to 10% higher energy efficiency, and when compared to displacement machines, such as positive displacement blowers, energy savings of up to 30% can be achieved.

These turbo blowers are perfectly suited to the specific demands of cooling and combustion air applications, delivering large volumes of air at low pressures ranging from 400 to 500 mbar, and they come with standard speed control. The advanced multi-stage frequency conversion technology reduces power losses in the motor by up to 90%, providing a significant advantage over conventional conversion technology.

Compact Design, Long Lifespan, Quiet Operation

Additionally, the turbo blowers offer other features that are highly beneficial for cement and lime production. Thanks to their compact design, they require minimal space. For example, a turbo blower occupies only a third or a quarter of the footprint of a positive displacement blower with similar performance. As a result, the machine room can be significantly smaller. Moreover, these blowers offer a long lifespan and quiet operation, further enhancing their appeal in industrial settings.

The enhanced AERZEN air foil bearings with dual coating ensure an extended operational lifespan of over 80,000 hours, offering maximum reliability. The advanced air filtration system guarantees optimal performance, even in highly polluted environments. The sound-optimized packages ensure quiet operation, with noise levels as low as 72-73 dB(A). Additionally, the robust turbo blowers are 100% oil-free, extremely powerful, and easy to operate, with exceptionally low maintenance requirements. This makes them an ideal solution for demanding industrial applications.

Focus on Efficiency and Sustainability

With low energy and maintenance costs, completely oil-free operation, high process stability, and a compact design, AERZEN turbo blowers score top marks in every category. They offer significant performance and efficiency advantages, supporting the cement and lime industries on their path toward climate-friendly production. While the initial investment for turbo blowers is higher compared to positive displacement blowers, turbo blowers excel in energy efficiency, keeping lifecycle costs low—a clear competitive advantage.
