Rotary Lime Kiln

Introduction of Rotary Lime Kiln

Lime kiln is short for lime rotary kiln, because its processed material is lime, so it is named lime kiln. The application of lime is very extensive, especially in the steel, sintering, iron making, copper and aluminum smelting industry, it is used as slagging agent, dissolving agent or sintered materials, which has played a very important role.

But if the lime and iron material are calcined together with lime, it will absorb a lot of heat, it not only consumes a lot of energy, but also affects the normal steelmaking and iron making operations, prolongs the normal smelting time and reduces its work efficiency. So in daily use, lime will firstly be calcined to become active lime with high reaction performance which can directly play a role as slagging agent to accelerate the smelting speed and production efficiency.

The Advantages of Lime Kiln:

1. The feeding end uses vertical preheater, which can effectively use the waste heat to save energy.
2. The temperature of rotary kiln can be adjusted according to the production needs, automatic temperature control during the production process, which effectively prevents the occurrence of safety accidents.
3. Uniform calcining, high quality of active lime.
4. The working environment of the equipment is clean, which can prevent the dust pollution of the environment.

The quality of lime greatly affects the quality of the final product -- active lime. We need to pay attention to the following points when calcining lime:

1. The feeding size should not be too large, or it will cause excessive calcination of outer particle and the insufficient calcination of internal part.
2. The feeding size should be uniform; otherwise it will cause uneven calcination.
3. It is not suitable for calcining Lime with high impurity content, otherwise the last generation of active lime performance is not high, which cannot play a catalytic role in the next smelting process.

In summary, the limestone should be washed and screened before calcination, although the moisture content will not affect the performance of activated lime, it will affect the heat energy of the rotary kiln, so washing and drying should be carried out before entering into the kiln. Only do a good preparation job, the follow-up work can be carried out smoothly.
