Another alternative process that is beginning to emerge in the United States is the parallel flow regenerative (PR) lime kiln. This process combines two advantages. First, optimum heating conditions for lime calcining are achieved by concurrent flow of the charge material and combustion gases. Second,

Fossil free
Fossil Free drives carbon negativity Lime mud reburning in the Kraft process used in pulp/paper/board production is a major source to CO2-emissions. The lime kiln is often the last big consumer of fossil fuels in the mill. In Sweden many lime kilns have been converted to bio-fuels, which instead means that great amounts of biomass

What is a Lime Kiln? A Comprehensive Guide to Understanding the Process
A lime kiln is a specialized equipment that uses the process of calcination to break down limestone into calcium oxide and carbon dioxide, producing quicklime. It has been used for centuries worldwide and comes in various types such as intermittent, flare-kilns, shaft type vertical or rotary.

Different Types of Lime Kilns for Industrial Applications
Comparison of Lime Kiln Types. Each type of lime kiln has its unique characteristics that determine its suitability for different applications. Batch or intermittent kilns are ideal for small-scale production and are simple to operate, while continuous or annular kilns are ideal for larger-scale production and produce high-quality quicklime.
