PROJECT DESCRIPTION

Calcium Silicate Blocks and Pipes Manufacturing Industry. Insulation Materials. Production of Calcium Silicate Pipe & Block Insulation Calcium Silicate Calcium silicate (Ca2SiO4), also known as calcium silicon oxide, is a product derived from limestone and diatomaceous earth, and is used in the pharmaceutical industry as an anticaking agent. Anti-caking agents absorb moisture and allow products to flow freely during the manufacturing process. Calcium silicate is an inorganic substance that can exist in different forms: CaSiO3 or Ca2SiO4. It is described as a very fine, white or off-white powder with low bulk density and high physical water absorption. It is commonly used as anti-caking agent in food ingredients. Uses The calcium silicates have a number of uses in industry. Among the most important applications are their uses in building materials, such as some types of glass and cement (especially Portland cement), bricks and tiles for roofs, fireproof ceilings, and building boards. The compound is also used as a filler in the manufacture of paper and some types of plastics, where it gives body to the final product. The use of calcium silicate foam for the building sector, especially the internal insulation of walls is relatively new. Based on extensive research, it was proven that, due to the high capillary action and hydrothermal material properties, the foam can be used to improve the moisture protection – especially when energetically renovating old buildings where the outside façade is unsuited for insulation measures. Calcium silicate is used to insulate high-temperature pipes and equipment and for fire endurance applications. It is manufactured and sold in three different forms: preformed block, preformed pipe. Calcium silicate manufactured in North America is noted for its high compressive strength, corrosion-inhibiting properties, and high-temperature structural integrity. Calcium Silicate Blocks This is a hard and solid product which is known for its high compressive strength and for does not shrink or crack under high temperatures. Further, these blocks can also be cut according to exact requirement asked by the client and their strength & hardness are a result of the calcium content of this material. Features of Calcium Silicate Blocks: • Lightweight and rigid • Resistant to fire • High mechanical strength • Low specific heat • High durability • Can be reused Indian Calcium silicate blocks find many applications in various industries. These include cement industry, aluminum industry, glass industry, iron and steel industry, power plants, fertilizer industry, petrochemical industry, ship building industry, chemical industry, sugar industry, foundries, rolling mills and other industries where temperatures can go high up to 1000 degrees Centigrade. Applications: • Cement Industry • Aluminium Industry • Glass Industry • Steel Industry • Power Plants • Fertilizer Industry • Refineries • Ceramic Industry • Ship Building • Chemicals Industry • Sugar Mills • Foundries Rolling Mills Advantages: • Reduced fuel cost due to low thermal conductivity and low thermal capacity. • Consistent physio-thermal performance throughout its life. • Reduced heat loss due to fewer joints. • Longer life of 3 to 4 times the fibrous material due to high strength and resistance to vibrations. • Reduced installation cost due to simple fixing. • Zero maintenance for entire life of over 25 years. • Economical as compared to conventional insulation. • Can absorb thermal shocks. • Physio-thermal properties remain unaffected after repeated water wetting & subsequent drying. Market Outlook Calcium silicate is used as an anti-caking agent and antacid in the food industry. Demand for high-temperature insulating materials is expected to increase due to industrial development, thus boosting the market for calcium silicate. Growth in the construction sector has bolstered demand for calcium silicate as it is the major end-user of calcium silicate. Global demand for calcium silicate is expected to witness strong growth in the near future, thereby offering significant market opportunities to producers. Increasing demand for calcium silicate has compelled producers to undertake expansion and acquisition of projects to meet global demand. Numerous producers are shifting their plants to countries such as China and India due to various factors such as low raw material and labor costs. The Calcium Silicate market analysis is provided for the international markets including development trends, competitive landscape analysis, and key regions development status. Development policies and plans are discussed as well as manufacturing processes and cost structures. Global demand for calcium silicate is expected to witness strong growth in the near future, thereby offering significant market opportunities to producers. Increasing demand for calcium silicate has compelled producers to undertake expansion and acquisition of projects to meet global demand. Numerous producers are shifting their plants to countries such as China and India due to various factors such as low raw material and labor costs. Rapid urbanization and infrastructural development are projected to be key market drivers. This, in turn, would propel demand for calcium silicate in the next few years. Low raw material availability and price volatility are factors likely to affect the market growth. The Asia Pacific is anticipated to be the leading region in the global calcium silicate market due to high demand from the construction sector during the review period. The growing urbanization and infrastructural demand from developing nations such as China and India are driving the market growth in this region. Moreover, the high demand for the product as an insulating material in almost every industry is another factor fuelling the market growth in this region. Moreover, the changing food consumption habits and growth of the food industry in this region is likely to propel the market growth. Availability of raw material and labor in these countries prove advantageous to the market growth.
