Utilization of waste heat from rotary kiln for burning clinker in the cement plant

Comparative Energy and Exergy Analysis for the Utilization of Alternative Fuels in the Cement Kiln

The cement industry is one of the most energy and carbon-intensive industries. The energy and carbon reduction is an important issue in this industry. The present work considers the use of alternative fuels in the cement kilns. The amounts of excess air, the location of fuel and air entrance, as well as the amount of produced gas stacks, are the main design and operational variables in the kiln...

Linear Identification of Rotary White Cement Kiln

Rotary cement kiln is the main part of a cement plant that clinker is produced in it. Continual and prolonged operation of rotary cement kiln is vital in cement factories. However, continual operation of the kiln is not possible and periodic repairs of the refractory lining would become necessary, due to non-linear phenomena existing in the kiln, such as sudden falls of coatings in the burning ...

On the Burning Zone Temperature Control of Cement Rotary Kiln Based on CMAC-PID Algorithm

With nonlinearity, large lag and time-varying model parameters of cement rotary kiln, this paper proposed a burning zone temperature control system of cement rotary kiln based on CMAC neural network. By Dynamic adjustment of PID controller parameters with CMAC neural network, combined with rotary kiln temperature control mechanism, the temperature controller based on CMAC-PID was designed. Then...

Environmental impact of incineration of calorific industrial waste in a rotary kiln and in a cement kiln

Adaptive Fuzzy Logic Controller for Rotary Kiln Control

The Rotary Kiln forms the heart of the cement manufacturing plant where most of the energy is being consumed by the burning of clinker, which when powdered and mixed with gypsum gives cement. In order to assure acceptable qualities for the clinker, it is important to make sure that the raw meal fed to the rotary kiln has been properly burnt for which the temperature in the burning zone needs to...
