MULTICOR^® system by Schenck Process is weighing and feeding equipment for Coal dust, Raw Meal and Fly ash etc. The highlight of this system is its very high accuracy and consistency. This system helps to improve and better the kiln performance in cement industries.

MULTICOR^® uses a unique measuring system based upon Coriolis Principle, wherein a constant speed variable torque motor is used to drive the MULTICOR^® at constant speed. Any variation in feed rate, results in change in motor torque which is measured by loadcell fitted with specially designed mechanism. This input is given to controller DISOMAT TERSUS which controls the pre-feeder to nullify the variation in MULTICOR^® output thereby resulting in constant feed rate.

There are two different types of MULTICOR® systems for Pyro; (a) For coal-Schenck offers combination of MULTICELL^® (pre-feeder) + MULTICOR® K (Measuring Unit) and (b) For Raw Meal- Schenck offers combination of Dosing Valve (pre-feeder) + MULTICOR^® S (Measuring Unit).

MultiCor K-Coal Dust Application

The unique features of MULTICOR^® K for coal feeding offer tangible benefits & superior performance to users as below:

MULTICELL^® + MULTICOR^® K installation uses less headroom as compared to other alternatives, resulting in extra saving for the user.
MULTICOR^® K measurement is based upon torque & hence independent of external factors such as vibrations, wind force, tare etc.
No venting is required hence no bag filter is needed. MULTICOR^® is therefore easy to operate.
No aeration is required on continuous basis as the system has integrated agitator which helps in homogenizing Coal & also facilitates the smooth & uniform Coal flow.
MULTICELL^® has wide inlet of 700-800 mm which makes mass flow possible in coal bin & avoids funnel flow. This facilitates complete filling of MULTICELL^® pockets.
The above system offers high accuracy, better than +/- 0.5%.

MultiCor S-Kiln Feed-Fly Ash Application

The high accuracy results in allowing customer to feed fly ash to max permissible percentage, thereby resulting in higher saving.

Schenck Prcess has more than 200 installations of MULTICOR^® systems in India and the numbers are growing with high degree of customer satisfaction. The repeat orders from the major cement OEM’s is a vote of confidence for Schenck Process for high quality, performance & best services.

Cement Manufacturers ‘Benefits’ using MULTICOR^® system:

Assists in meeting CO2 reduction targets.
Better ROI
Retrofitting of solutions into existing plants.
Co-operation with a global solution provider, who understands your market and production needs.

Over and above, enabling cement producers to reduce their investment levels in capital equipment and operating costs, utilising the MULTICOR^® systems

Vedanta Limited has received approval from the Competition Commission of India (CCI) to acquire Jaiprakash Associates Limited (JAL) for approximately Rs 17,000 million under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC) process. The move marks Vedanta’s strategic expansion beyond its core mining and metals portfolio into cement, real estate, and infrastructure sectors.

Once the flagship of the Jaypee Group, JAL has faced severe financial distress with creditors’ claims exceeding Rs 59,000 million. Vedanta emerged as the preferred bidder in a competitive auction, outbidding the Adani Group with an overall offer of Rs 17,000 million, equivalent to Rs 12,505 million in net present value terms. The payment structure involves an upfront settlement of around Rs 3,800 million, followed by annual instalments of Rs 2,500–3,000 million over five years.

The National Asset Reconstruction Company Limited (NARCL), which acquired the group’s stressed loans from a State Bank of India-led consortium, now leads the creditor committee. Lenders are expected to take a haircut of around 71 per cent based on Vedanta’s offer. Despite approvals for other bidders, Vedanta’s proposal stood out as the most viable resolution plan, paving the way for the company’s diversification into new business verticals.
