Invested by Lafarge and Dujiangyan Building Material Corporation, this project was contracted on turnkey basis. It was the biggest dry-processing production line in West China then and also the first project invested by European producers in China. The total investment amounted to RMB 1.3 billion yuan.

The scope of work covers engineering design, soil investigation, site leveling, foundation construction, road building, equipment supply, installation and commissioning, civil works and all other turnkey completion service.

The production line was ignited on February 3rd 2002, kicking off China’s general contract service for cement engineering.

 

This is the first 5,000 t/d line of which all equipment is Chinese-made. It was designed by Sinoma Int. (Nanjing) who also undertook technical support. The major equipment for pyro-system (pre-heater with pre-calciner, rotary kiln, grate cooler and burner) were all developed and supplied by Sinoma Int. (Nanjing).

The contract for pyro-system equipment supply was signed in December 2000 and the project was commenced in February 2001. Completed and commissioned in March 2002, the production line was put into production in June 2002. The construction time only took 13 months and the total investment for the project was RMB 256 million yuan. Its short completion time and low investment made a record in cement engineering. And the success of this project set off a boom for large-scale & low-Capex cement plants.

The project won Sinoma Int. the 11th Engineering Design Award and the 10th Engineering Design Award for Building Material Industry.

Signed with Colacem of Italy, this is the first project contracted by Sinoma Int. on turnkey basis in an advanced country. It was executed in two phases: phase 1, modification of preheater, exhaust gas treatment and cooler building; phase 2, modification of raw mill, clinker conveying & storage, cement proportioning station, cement mill building, coal conveying, raw mix feeding. Commenced on July 10th 2003, the project was completed in 4 months and 20 days.

The successful execution of Ragusa project paved the way into Europe for Sinoma Int.

Located in Tongling, Anhui province, these two lines were invested by Conch Group which is China’s biggest cement producer. The first line of the two was ignited on May 26th and load tested on June 5th 2004. Ignition, trial operation, load test and design production output were realized nearly at the same time. Commencement to production merely took 18 months, 1 year shorter compared with the completion time for foreign projects at the same scale. This is an unprecedented success.

This project was invested by Taiwan Lucky Cement and contracted by Suzhou Construction Co., Ltd. of Sinoma Int. The contract was signed in 2003 on P-C (procurement & construction) basis. The scope of work covers equipment procurement and supply, installation, civil construction, commissioning, etc. Commenced on September 15th 2003, it was completed on May 17th 2005.

This is the first 5,000 t/d project contracted by Chinese supplier in overseas market. And it is the largest engineering project exported to Vietnam by China. Vietnam government promoted this Fukuyama 5,000 t/d line as a showcase. In 2009 this project won Sinoma Int. “Luban Award,” one big honor for construction projects in China.
 

On February 7th 2005, the general contract was signed with Union Cement Company for its 10,000 t/d cement project. The scope of work covers engineering design, equipment supply and installation at site, civil construction, technical services and other turkey completion services. Sinoma Int.’s technologies were first used for project at this scale in foreign markets. And pyro-system including pre-heater and rotary kiln is wholly Chinese made.

This turnkey project is completed in 20 months starting from the contract signature. Its success breaks the spell that large cement projects are monopolized by European suppliers in global market.
 

Located in Limassol, this cement production line is the largest one in EU countries. The project investors are Italcementi Gruppo, Church of Cyprus and one local cement producer. It’s contracted by CBMI Construction Co., Ltd. and two other local companies with CBMI responsible for engineering design, equipment supply, equipment installation and modification of the existing line.

State-of-the-art process and technologies are adopted for this project. Alternative fuels like shredded tires, municipal solid wastes and sludge are used, replacing at least 50% traditional fuels. Moreover, CO2 emission is down 17% compared with the existing production line in the plant and power consumption lowered by 5%-10%.

Provisional Acceptance Certificate for cement grinding system was issued on December 15th 2010 and that for the whole line on July 29th 2011.
 

Contracted by Sinoma Int. (Nanjing), the project is located in Al Mazahimiyah. The scope of the project starts from raw material crushing to cement packing plus E & M workshops, office buildings and facilities.

The project was commenced in May 2005 and completed on May 31st 2007. Clinker output during performance test reached up to 5243 t/d, far exceeding design figure. And the power consumption up to clinker, clinker strength, dust emission and cement power consumption all met design guarantees. Nearly 90% of the performance guarantees are better than those stipulated in contract. Final Acceptance Certificate was issued to Sinoma Int. on time.

The success of the project not only won high praise from Saudi customers and government but also RCC 2nd line for us. It caught the eye of China as well. During his state visit to Saudi Arabia, then President Hu Jingtao paid a special visit to RCC site. It is one of the milestones in the history of Sinoma Int.
 

On May 13th 2007, Sinoma Int. entered EP contract with US Sumter Cement Company for its 4,000 t/d cement project. This company is the subsidiary of Brazil’s biggest cement producer, Votorantim. The contract price is 42 million USD and the stipulated equipment delivery time is 16 months starting from the contract effective date.

Due to the global economic crisis in 2008, the cement demand in the US market slipped and Sumter decided to suspend the project. Finally the project was relocated to Salto, Brazil. Commenced in September 2009, the cement production line was put into production on December 24th 2011.

This is the first American project contracted by Sinoma Int. and it lays a solid foundation for Sinoma Int. to develop American market with Sumter Cement Company.

SCC 2x10,000 t/d Cement Production Lines are located 120 km to the southwest of Dammam and 380 km to Riyadh, capital of Saudi Arabia.

The two lines are expansion to the existing 6 lines of SCC Hofuf Cement Plant. The project is contracted on EPC basis with the price equal to 580 million USD. The scope of work of Sinoma Int. covers engineering design, equipment supply, civil construction, equipment installation, commissioning, training, performance tests, etc. And the project starts from raw material crushing (excluding overland long belt conveyor) to the cement packing. Raw materials conveying from existing lines to new lines and the conveying of clinker produced by new lines to existing ones are also included in the scope. Pre-heater with recalciners and rotary kiln developed by Sinoma Int. (Nanjing) are used for the project. For engineering design and project construction, Europe standards are applied with European consultants reviewing and approving the technical proposal and design drawings.

The two lines have passed all performance tests and the major guarantees have met contract specifications. Some figures are even better than guaranteed ones. SCC highly values Sinoma Int.’s control of quality and schedule. Successful project execution and performance stability demonstrate Sinoma Int.’s distinctive competence in general contracting service.
