Summary site information collated from a variety of sources.
Overview
WikiWaste has used the website Cement Plants and Kilns in Britain and Ireland[1] extensively for the reference material for each individual cement kiln page. The detail on this reference website is extensive and as WikiWaste is focused upon the UK waste and resource market, only the key highlights are captured from this website (and company websites accordingly) to provide background and context. Padeswood started manufacturing clinker in 1949 and up to 2015 had produced 31 million tonnes of clinker through 4 rotary kilns over this period.
Ownership
- 1949 to 1968 Tunnel Portland Cement Co. Ltd
- 1968 to 1986 Tunnel Cement Ltd
- 1986 to 2009 Castle cement Ltd (RTZ to 1989, Scancem to 1999, HeidlebergCement to 2009)
- 2009 to Present Hanson Cement UK (owned by HeidelbergCement)
The Process at Padeswood
The process at the site is an air-separated precalciner kiln, supplied by FLS (FLSmidth) which allows for the burning of alternative fuels[2].
Raw Materials
The primary raw materials are Carboniferous Limestone from Cefn Mawr Quarry, with coal measure shale and colliery waste from the Llay Main colliery tip, moving to Bersham Colliery in the future.
Waste Used on Site
The Padeswood site waste return to the EA for the most recent year of 2018 showed the following wastes used on site:
| Waste Class | Description | Tonnage Input |
|---|---|---|
| 10 02 13* | sludges and filter cakes from gas treatment containing dangerous substances | 6,990 |
| 19 02 08* | liquid combustible wastes containing dangerous substances | 18,916 |
| 19 12 10 | combustible waste (refuse derived fuel) | 19,974 |
| 19 12 11* | other wastes (including mixtures of materials) from mechanical treatment of waste containing dangerous substances | 106 |
The majority of the tonnage listed was used for the primary purpose of substituting fuel requirements in the plant. In 2015 the tonnage was almost exclusively for the use of fuel and included Cemfuel (liquid waste solvents) 13,422 tonnes, MBM 7,284 tonnes and SRF 19,007[3].
