Petroleum coke calcination in rotary kilns will be described by means of a model based on mass and energy conservation. Heat transfer by conduction, convection and radiation is taken into account. Mass transfer occurring between the solid and gas phases is mainly due to natural gas combustion reactions, release of coke volatile …
Rotary kilns, for gypsum calcination, are similar to cement kilns, but the main difference is that gypsum kilns are counter-flow compared to cement kilns. In gypsum kilns, the gypsum encounters a temperature of 600-650 °C when it is fed into the kiln and this temperature is decreases to around 150-160 °C at the kiln exit.
A rotary kiln or calciner is one of the most commonly used types of equipment for carrying out the calcination process. This device consists of a rotating cylinder set on a slight slope. The rotary kiln may be of the …
Both static and rotary kiln calcination techniques have been used for the calcination of clays, but rotary calcination is more efficient in larger operations. When larger quantities of clays are calcined using static (soak) calcination techniques, such as in muffle furnaces, a highly non-uniform temperature distribution in the clay may result.

Although the traditional vertical shaft kilns are still commonly employed in China [4], the rotary kiln has become widely adopted for the calcination process, due to its high level of automation ...
In this paper, based on analysis of the chemical and physical processes of clinker formation, a heat flux function was introduced to take account of the thermal effect of clinker formation. Combining the models of gas−solid flow, heat and mass transfer, and pulverized coal combustion, a set of mathematical models for a full-scale cement rotary kiln were …
A 2D axisymmetric computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model, coupled to a 1D bed model, has been developed to capture the key processes that occur within rotary lime kilns. The model simulates the …
In a wet-process or preheater system without a pre-calciner, most of the calcination takes place in the rotary kiln within a moving mass of feed. This situation is not ideal for calcination because heat transfer has to take place through a large mass of material and CO 2 has to escape outwards as heat moves inwards.
A 2D axisymmetric computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model, coupled to a 1D bed model, has been developed to capture the key processes that occur within rotary lime kilns. The model simulates the …
ROTARY KILN CONSTRUCTION While FEECO rotary kilns are custom designed around the material to be processed, in general, there are some standard components that serve as the basic design of a rotary kiln. The diagram shown on page 8 illustrates some of the common standard components found on a basic direct-ired kiln. A diagram of an

This study investigates the role of sulfur content of rotary kiln fuels on the composition of the calcine. The calcination-partial reduction experiments were conducted in a furnace at 900 oC for a 2-hour residence time. Various reducing gas mixtures representing combustion product of rotary kiln fuels (i.e., coal) were contacted with the ore.
