Welcome to the 53rd Cement Industry
Technical Conference Website

Join us May 22 - May 26, 2011 in St. Louis, Missouri

The St. Louis Conference Committee invites you to the 2011 Cement Industry Technical Conference.

The Cement industry faces unparalleled challenges. An avalanche of new and changing environmental regulations combined with a significant drop in cement demand since its peak in 2005 is drastically changing the industry.

We cannot control most of these factors. We can however engage the industry, its engineers, equipment suppliers and designers to equip us with the latest technology to successfully respond to these challenges.

We therefore invite you to attend the 2011 Cement Industry technical conference to be held this year in St Louis. The industries top technical people will be discussing diverse technical issues and proposing potential solutions to the many challenges you face today.

In addition to networking with the best and brightest people of our industry, you will have a chance to see the best and brightest technology in the form of the newest and largest plants; both located about 40 miles south of St Louis. You can tour the new Buzzi Unicem 7,000 tpd Selma plant as well as Holcim’s, 12,000 tpd Ste. Genevieve plant. Both plants came on line in 2009 and feature the latest in large plant equipment from a vast array of different suppliers and are among the most energy efficient plants in the world today.

The popular Environmental workshop held last year will be continued this year with a new set of current topics relevant to challenges we are facing. In addition, tutorials and technical papers drill down to focus on topics of most concern to you and your company’s operations.

The St. Louis Conference Committee hopes you enjoy the programs we have scheduled at the conference as well as getting a chance to see and enjoy the St. Louis area.

Sincerely,

Jeff Ouhl
2011 Committee Chairman
