Pyroprocessing and Kiln Operation
Dr SB Hegde, Professor, Jain University, Bangalore, talks about pyroprocessing and the role of preheater, rotary kiln and clinker cooler in the cement manufacturing process. In the concluding part of the two-part series, we will learn more about the various factors aiding pyroprocessing. False Air in Pyro ProcessingIndia is the second largest cement producer in […]

Sometimes, large lumps of kiln coating may act as a base for the formation of 'snowmen'. Left unchecked, these 'snowmen' may eventually grow to reach the mouth of the kiln, and block the discharge of clinker from the kiln. There are two methods for removal of snowmen;-1. Shoot them out with a kiln cannon. or better still; 2.

Cement Plants: Clays and Shales
At Premier, a low-grade Oolitic limestone was used alone, but in earlier times, some of the under lying Upper Lias clay ((Whitby Mudstone Formation) was added. At Ketton, the main limestone used is the Inferior Oolite (Lincolnshire Limestone Formation), which is overlain with a clay (the Rutland Formation) at the base of the Upper Oolite.

Boulder: Generally, clinker ball/ boulder formation is related to low clinker SM with high AM or related to very thick coating. Figure is showing a boulder with 1.80 m in diameter. Boulder formation mechanism: Large clinker balls initiate and grow behind a thick coating or ring. Build up often fall and slide into the kiln as large slabs and ...
Common Rotary Kiln Processing Challenges
What Causes Ring Formation in a Rotary Kiln? Ring formation is extremely common, occurring in roughly 85% of commercial rotary kilns. It is typically the result of a change in slagging temperature. The slagging temperature is the point at which the material will fuse together, allowing it to solidify. If a change in feed composition that ...
clinker ball formation in pre burning zone of the rotary kiln
We have two kilns in our unit. In both the kilns, we are facing very big unshaped clinker coating coming from kiln inlet to pre burning zone and disturb the steady kiln operations. Sometime, this very big coating block the entire cross section of the kiln at the pre burning zone starting. Experts may kindly suggest solutions to solve this problem

Snowman Formation and Prevention
In general build-ups in the cement production often cause kiln shut downs with the result of additional cost. Fact is that every identification of a possible problem leading to loss of production means a prevention to reduce cost. Along a developed checklist a cement plant with Snowman formation was checked.
Build ups in pyro-processing
Boulder formation mechanism: Large clinker balls initiate and grow behind a thick coating or ring. Build up often fall and slide into the kiln as large slabs and coming to rest behind a ring (if it is large enough).
Counteracting ring formation in rotary kilns
Avoiding the formation of rings in rotary kilns is an issue of primary concern to the cement production industry. We developed a numerical combustion model that revealed that in our case study rings are typically formed in zones of maximal radiative heat transfer. This local overheating causes an overproduction of the liquid phase of the granular material, which tends …

However, new cement kilns are of the 'dry process' type. Dry process kilns. In a modern works, the blended raw material enters the kiln via the pre-heater tower. Here, hot gases from the kiln, and probably the cooled clinker at the far end of the kiln, are used to heat the raw meal. As a result, the raw meal is already hot before it enters the ...
