Discusses the use of the company's new CB Omni analyzer at Mitsubishi Cement's Lucerne Valley plant.
Mitsubishi's Lucerne Valley plant is located at the base of the San Bernadino Mountains, near the Mojave Desert, and supplies the southern California market (Figure 1). The original plant was constructed in 1957 as a wet process line and has gone through multiple modernizations, including a conversion to the dry process in the early 1980s. Using a 3-stage crushing system, circular preblending stockpile and a four-stage, dual-string preheater tower, the plant can produce approximately 1.7 million tpa.
