ROTARY KILN. rotary kiln. A rotary kiln is a heating furnace that rotates a cylinder (retort), supplies raw materials into the furnace (inside the retort) using a feeding device (screw feeder, etc.), and uniformly heat-treats the raw materials while stirring. At Tanabe, we handle a variety of processes from low-temperature ranges to high ...
Cement is one of the most widely used and trusted building materials in the world – and it wouldn't be available in such huge quantities if not for the work of rotary kilns.Cement is fundamentally made up of limestone and clay, heated and ground into a fine uniform powder which can then be liquefied later.

Rotary kilns consist of a rotating cylinder inclined at an angle of 3 to 4 degrees to the horizontal. Limestone, chalk or Dolomite is fed into the upper 'back end', and fuel plus combustion air is fired into the lower 'front end'. The product is then discharged from the kiln into a cooler, where it is used to pre-heat the combustion air.
An experimental study of the calcination of limestone has been carried out in a highly instrumented pilot-scale rotary kiln. Local gas, solids, and wall temperatures and pct calcination have been measured under a range of operating conditions to determine the influence of limestone type, feed rate, rotational speed, inclination angle, and particle …

The prevalent type of kiln is the rotary kiln, accounting for about 90 percent of all lime production in the United States. This kiln is a long, cylindrical, slightly inclined, refractory-lined furnace, through which the limestone and hot combustion gases pass countercurrently. Coal, oil, and natural gas may all be fired in rotary kilns.

One common use for rotary kilns is the production of lime (calcium oxide) by calcinating limestone, which requires significant heat to achieve – approximately 900 °C (1,650 °F). Such high-temperature processes must be handled carefully, and there are several problems that may arise if the kiln is not properly configured for this usage.
