2023102 · Thus the kilns define the capacity of the plant: with two kilns operating, the plant could make around 100,000 tonnes of clinker per year. To make 100,000 tonnes of clinker, 165,000 tonnes of chalk and 50,000 tonnes of clay would have been used, together with 30-35,000 tonnes of kiln coal.

Chalk and clay of exactly the composition necessary for the manufacture of high-class cement actually lie in juxtaposition in the same quarry, in one part of which there is a vertical face of chalk with the clay actually butting up against it.

Roman Cement was also made, and given that it was still more popular than Portland at this time, it is likely that the remaining capacity was largely used in its production.
view morePortland cement manufacturing is an energy intensive operation that involves pyroprocessing of raw materials, referred to as the kiln feed, at extremely high temperatures in rotary kilns. The kiln feed primarily consists of limestone with some additions of clay, sand, and iron oxide that chemi-cally interact to form cement clinker.

This secondary role, combined with competition from other larger Midland cement firms, caused the plant to fall behind in technology and close in the late 1920s.
