The July - August 2017 issue of Global Cement Magazine opens with our annual look at the Top 10 global cement producers. We present technical articles on heavy-duty bearings, the environmental impacts of cement packaging, ways to reduce fan noise and a feature on the Egyptian cement sector's new coal grinding installations.
The issue includes slag-cement related interviews with Ecocem's Micheál McKittrick and Carbicrete's Chris Stern. As well as all the latest global cement news there are also reviews of the Global Slag Conference & Exhibition that took place in Düsseldorf, the IEEE-IAS/PCA Cement Conference in Calgary and interpack 2017 in Düsseldorf.
