A full-scale mock-up of a rotary cement kiln is selected as a case study. The kiln is fired by the non-premixed combustion of Dutch natural gas. The gas is injected at Mach 0.6 via a multi-nozzle burner located at the outlet of an axially mounted fuel pipe.
The cement kiln
In the diagram above of a precalciner kiln, raw meal passes down the preheater tower while hot gases rise up, heating the raw meal. At 'A,' the raw meal largely decarbonates; at 'B,' the temperature is 1000 C - 1200 C and intermediate compounds are forming and at 'C,' the burning zone, clinker nodules and the final clinker minerals form.

Considering that in the precalciner, decomposition (decarbonation) of CaCO 3 takes place with yields ranging from 90 to 95%, the chemical reaction above continues into the rotary kiln [].In our case, we estimate the remaining amount of CaCO 3 to be 10% of the input …
Wet process rotary cement kilns: modeling and simulation
At the present time some 80% of the global cement clinker production is obtained from dry kiln processes. However, there are still a several hundred wet process kilns in use (Eckert and Hand 2002; De Beus 1999).Modern dry process plants are a combination of a four-to-five-stage cyclone preheater and a pre-calcination followed by a …
Numerical modelling of calcination reaction mechanism for cement …
Calcination is a thermo-chemical process, widely used in the cement industry, where limestone is converted by thermal decomposition into lime CaO and carbon dioxide CO 2.The focus of this paper is on the implementation and validation of the endothermic calcination reaction mechanism of limestone in a commercial finite volume …
Rotary Cement Kiln Simulator (RoCKS): Integrated modeling of …
The total heat of reaction in kiln is the summation of heat of calcination (endothermic reaction) and the heat of clinker formation (exothermic reactions). When calcination occurs pre-dominantly in the pre-calciner (> 70 %), the energy requirements for reactions in kiln reduce drastically. This causes increase in kiln flue gas temperature …
