The aim of the project was to define the sensitivities of and relationships between the various influencing factors in a form applicable to plants in general. This was achieved on the basis of plant experiences, as well as on existing and new plant measurements and CFD simulation.
The aim of ECo project was to utilise CO₂ for co-electrolysis SOEC in combination with electricity production from renewable sources for storage as methane presented an interesting approach to handling CO₂ emissions from the cement industry in a future sustainable energy system.

In the course of the research project, a cross-industry approach to the determination of flexibility potential was developed and adapted to the needs of the basic materials industry.
Ziel des Projekts ist es, ein Softwaremodell zu entwickeln, das eine Anlage und bestehende Werksprozesse ganzheitlich abbildet. Mit dem Tool soll es möglich sein, neue Teile in die Anlage zu integrieren und deren Auswirkungen zu untersuchen.
The aim of the CLEANKER (CLEAN clinKER) project is to perform large-scale testing of this technology as an integrated method (Technology Readiness Level 7). It is planned to treat 4 000 m³/h exhaust gas in a demonstration plant to be connected to an existing kiln line at the Buzzi Unicem works in Vernasca in Italy.
The core concept of the research project is to generate the maximum amount of electrical energy from the process exhaust gas during the production of cement clinker without affecting its kiln capacity or clinker quality. The electricity generated should cover the base load requirements for the cement production.
