The article examines the clinker firing technology using the wet production method based on LLP «Semey Cement Plant». The research object is the wet method of cement production. Research methods include a literature review, analysis of technological processes, and assessment of production efficiency indicators. Main results: The advantages and disadvantages of the wet method have been identified, and its production costs and environmental impact have been evaluated. Scientific novelty: A possibility of improving clinker firing efficiency by increasing the rotary kiln speed has been proposed. Practical significance: It has been proven that applying the proposed methods can enhance production efficiency and reduce environmental impact. The study compares the advantages and disadvantages of wet and dry methods and analyzes their production efficiency. The main advantage of the wet method is the ease of raw material grinding and the ability to obtain a homogeneous slurry; however, it has higher fuel consumption. Additionally, the technological processes of cement production, raw material preparation methods, and the influence of their chemical composition are described. The research results demonstrate the feasibility of the combined application of wet and dry methods in cement production. The wet method is technologically simpler, whereas the dry method allows for fuel savings and increased productivity.
