About Vertical Shaft Kiln
The Vertical Shaft Kiln has the advantage of low investment profile therefore, suitable for small and medium scale processing of different materials like limestone and refractory. There fuels such as coke, coal, gas, oil, and other alternative fuels are combusted using various types of burner or charging systems. Moreover, its design is designed in such a way that it prevent radiation loss. For various application requirements, Vertical Shaft Kiln is available in different options.
Vertical Shaft Kilns Have Among Others The Advantage Of Low Investment Profile And Hence Very Suitable For Small And Medium Scale Processing Of Various Solid Minerals Such As Limestone And Refractory. The Low Investment Profile Therefore Makes It Attractive In Developing Countries Where Sources Of Investment Capital Are Lean. Vertical Kilns However Are Plagued With A Number Of Operational Problems Such As Channeling, Stratification, Hanging Accident, Poor Heat Distribution Among Others. This Work Investigated The Effects Of Burner Types, Firing Rate And Degree Of Draft On The Vertical Kiln Temperature Profile And Hence The Efficiency Of The Kiln. Numerous Fuels Such As Coke, Coal, Gas, Oil, As Well As Other Alternative Fuels Are Combusted Using Different Types Of Burner Or Charging Systems.
Material Traveling Slowly In The Kiln. All The Material Get Fused Here. After Passing Through The Burning Zoon The Material Start Cooling Slowly. The Clinkerisation Start And Clinker Finally Comes Out Of The Kiln.
