· Six material bed movements take place in the transverse plane of the rotary kiln: slipping, slumping, rolling, cascading, cataracting, and centrifuging. Fig. 3 illustrates all six of these movements. Boateng and Barr [12] stated that the most desirable bed motion is usually the rolling mode, because it promotes a good mix of particles with a

The function of the kiln system is to convert the raw meal into clinker in the most efficient way and to produce clinker with an optimal mineralogy for acceptable cement performance. Typical chemical analysis of raw meal, clinker, and select processing parameters are given in Table 3.1.2. Table 3.1.2.

IV.Q.1 Description. The rotary kiln is a long tube that is positioned at an angle near horizontal and is rotated. The angle and the rotation allow solid reactants to work their way down the tube. Speed and angle dictate the retention time in the kiln. Gas is passed through the tube countercurrent to the solid reactant.

Lime shaft kilns are stationary vertical kilns where the raw limestone enters at the top and gravity flows through three thermally zoned sections known as the preheating, calcining, and cooling zones. The process heats the limestone from ambient temperature to 900°C, which is the point where the carbon dioxide is driven off, leaving calcium

The reactions at this stage are: 12 CaCO3 + 7 Al2O3 → Ca12Al14O33 + 12 CO2. 4 CaCO3 + Al2O3 + Fe2O3 → Ca4Al2Fe2O10 + 4 CO2. 4 CaCO3 + Al2O3 + Mn2O3 → Ca4Al2Mn2O10 + 4 CO2. Decomposition of remaining calcite: A little amount of calcite remains at this stage and forms free lime for the first time: CaCO3 → CaO + CO2.
