Peter Kruspan

Title: Peter Kruspan and Cement-Clinker Production Innovation.

Introduction

Peter Kruspan is an inventor associated with Holderbank, Switzerland, and Amrize Technology Switzerland LLC. His patent work addresses the use of heat and exhaust gases across cement-production processes.

Latest Patents

Kruspan is associated with 1 patent: “Method of Producing Cement Clinker and a Second Calcined Material.” The invention describes producing cement clinker in one production line and a second calcined material from raw material in another. In the second line, the raw material may be dried and is then calcined in a rotary kiln. Sensible heat from hot gas in the first production line supplies heat for calcination, while exhaust gas from the rotary kiln is introduced into the first line for secondary combustion.

Career Highlights

The patent reflects an approach to integrating heat and gas flows between production lines. By using heat from clinker production to support calcination and returning kiln exhaust gas for secondary combustion, the method connects two stages of material processing.

Collaborations

Michael Weihrauch and Ernst Bucher are identified as Kruspan’s coworkers. The available information does not specify their roles in the patent or the development of the method.

Conclusion

Peter Kruspan’s patent focuses on coordinating cement-clinker production with the calcination of a second material through shared heat and exhaust-gas flows.
