Excursion to Spenner cement works

05/28/2024

Together with the Chair of Construction Materials, interested students were able to visit the Spenner cement plant in Erwitte.

After a short introduction to the basics of cement production and the efforts made in the area of environmental protection, the students were able to see what they had heard on site. This provided rare insights behind the scenes and into the huge mills and kilns. Finally, a bird's eye view of the renaturalized areas and the active lime extraction sites was provided from the roof of a storage silo. This allowed the students to grasp the entire cycle from extraction, through multi-stage cement production, to renaturation.

We would like to thank the Spenner company for the impressive tour of the cement works!
