The use of magnesia-chrome refractories of the cement kiln can generate harmful hexavalent chromium in the environment and be hazardous to your health, so the study on the instead of magnesia-chrome refractories have become urgent issues. The raw material is made up of fused magnesite particles (particle size 0 to 3 mm), fine fused magnesite powder with the size less than 200 meshes and fine fused magnesia-zirconia’s powder with the size less than 320 meshes, polyvinyl alcohol and calcium lignosulfonate liquor being used as the combine. This paper discusses the effect of sinter temperature on sinter character of products.

Nineteen eighties, the sintering zone of cement rotary kiln and transition belt use main magnesia chrome brick because of its excellent performance, but the Cr6+ is carcinogenicity, which causes great harm to the air, water pollution, animal or human. Therefore, new basic refractory material of free of chrome began to be developed. This test, the raw material is made up of fused magnesite particles (particle size 0 to 3 mm), fine fused magnesite powder with the size less than 200 meshes and fine fused magnesia-zirconia’s powder with the size less than 320 meshes, polyvinyl alcohol and calcium lignosulfonate liquor being used as the combiner. This paper discusses the effect of sinter temperature on sinter character of products.

Abstract The paper reports a CFD engineering application for modeling the thermal-fluid dynamics and thermochemical conversion processes, which govern the conventional air-fossil fuel firing or multi-fuel co-processing, responsible for thermal sustain of raw material calcination process, within a dry process cement kiln. We simulate a Dual-Combustion and Denitration Furnace (DDF) precalciner, which co-combusts in suspension the petroleum coke (primary fuel) with alternative fuels (e.g., the pre-dried sewage sludge and/or the animal meat and bonemeal). CFD software package ANSYS Fluent R18.2 is used to build CFD reactive model and to perform the numerical simulations. The Eulerian–Lagrangian approach is usually employed for modeling turbulent multiphase reacting flows. Few turbulence and radiation heat transfer models are compared, to identify pros and cons of each model applicability and to determine which model is most suitable. The Discrete Phase Model (DPM), in Lagrangian framework, is employed for tracking petcoke/alternative fuels and limestone particle clouds. CFD analysis provides valuable insights into the DDF precalciner performance e.g., combustion and calcination characteristics, in-furnace NOx control strategy by combustion aerodynamics optimization (particularly the effect of Tertiary Air tangential inlet, which creates swirl and induces several local flow recirculation zones). The major predicted results e.g., exit degree of calcination, fuel burnout, gas species concentration fields etc., are quite well captured and validated against control system continuously logged operation data and the measurements collected by newly installed instrumentation.

Scandium is concentrated in the dust during TiO2 chlorization. The dust can be used as a raw material from which Scandium is extracted. Scandium leaching conditions such as leaching acid concentration , liquid-solid ratio , leaching temperature and leaching time is investigated with chemical analysis through the orthogonal experiment. The results show that the optimum leaching conditions is: chloride dust particle size is 44 μ m, leaching acid concentration is 15%, liquid-solid ratio is 2:1, leaching temperature is 28 °C, leaching time is 1 h.

Abstract - There are several problems in storing wood chips freshly harvested from short rotation plantations, which result in quality losses as well as in dry matter and energy losses. The factors influencing the degradation of raw material are examined in this paper with special focus on fungal development. An excessive growth of fungi is connected to dry matter losses and also to an increased health risk during raw material handling. The following factors were measured during 6 months storage of poplar wood chips depending on particle size: box temperature, moisture content, pH-value, appearance of fungi in the storage and the concentration of fungal particles in the air. The results show a close connection between particle size, temperature and attack of fungi. During the storage mesophilic and termophilic species of the genera Alternaria, Aspergillus, Cladosporium, Mucor and Penicillium appeared. The concentration of fungal particles is the highest for fine chips and decreases in bigger particles. There was a special focus on the investigation of the properties of coarse chips (G 50), which represent a good compromise between handling, storage losses and health risk due to fungal development.

Experimental study on the use of basalt stone originated from Lampung has been conducted to evaluate its potential for a partial substitute of raw material in production of cement clinker. The basalt stone contains minerals of anorthite, augite, and albite phases that are required for clinker formation. In this study, the main raw materials were 80% limestone, 10% silica sand, 9% clay and 1% iron sand. The raw material in these experiments were mixtures 90% or 80% of the main raw material and 10% or 20% of basalt stone. The effect of adding coal to raw materials was also studied to see the possibility of an increase in clinkerization temperature inside the raw material mixture, and at the same time to see the effect of coal ash on clinker composition. Clinker obtained from heating of raw materials at a temperature of 1100oC had LSF of 94.1% and 95.1% (heating time of 1 and 3 hours). If heating is carried out at 1200oC, the clinker had LSF of 97.7% and 98.0% (heating time of 2 and 3 hours, respectively). Depending on the temperature and duration of heating, the clinker mostly had SM in the range of 2.18-2.40% , and AM in the range of 0,78-1.80%. Characterization using XRD showed that the clinker consisted of larnite and gehlenite phases, and dominated by CaO.Batu basalt Lampung telah diuji potensinya sebagai pengganti sebagian bahan baku utama pembuatan klinker semen. Batu basalt tersebut memiliki mineral-mineral dalam fase anorthite, augite, dan albite yang diperlukan pada pembentukan klinker. Pada penelitian ini, bahan baku utama adalah batu kapur 80%, pasir silika 10%, tanah liat 9% dan pasir besi 1%. Campuran bahan baku klinker adalah 90% atau 80% bahan baku utama dan 10% atau 20% batu basalt. Efek penambahan batubara ke dalam bahan baku klinker juga dipelajari untuk melihat kemungkinan kenaikan temperatur klinkerisasi di dalam campuran bahan baku, dan sekaligus untuk melihat efek abu batubara terhadap komposisi klinker. Klinker hasil pemanasan bahan baku pada temperatur 1100oC memiliki LSF 94,1% dan 95,1% (lama pemanasan 1 dan 3 jam). Jika pemanasan dilakukan pada 1200oC, klinker memilik LSF 97,7% dan 98,00% (lama pemanasan 2 dan 3 jam). Tergantung pada temperatur dan lama pemanasan, klinker hasil percobaan ini umumnya memiliki SM 2,18-2,40%, dan AM antara 0,78-1,80%. Karakterisasi dengan XRD menunjukkan bahwa klinker terdiri dari fase larnite dan gehlenite, dan didominasi CaO.

Three dimensional, time dependent Euler-Euler simulation approach for numerical calculation of multiphase strongly swirling turbulent gas-heavy laden particulate flow in large industrial collection cyclones, positioned vertically, in staggered downward cascade arrangement has been performed. The multiphase flow was featured high mass loading. This paper specifically addresses a CFD modeling of a “suspension preheater”, typical equipment for dry process cement kiln. Big sized cyclone separator is a key component of this device. The simulation case study was developed in the frame of the commercial general-purpose code ANSYS-Fluent R13. In cyclone separators the swirling gas motion induces a centrifugal force on the solid particulate phase which is the driving force behind the separation process. The turbulence disperses the solid particulates and enhances the probability that particles are discharged, as reject. Both phenomena are related to solid phase particle size distribution (PSD) and flow pattern into the collection cyclones. The multiphase turbulence was modeled using the RSM Mixture Turbulence Model. The simulation results were validated against industrial measurements carried out on an industrial suspension preheater, in the frame of heat and mass balance of cement kiln energy audit. The numerical simulation results were found in reasonable agreement with the collected industrial measurements. This CFD simulation represents a powerful engineering tool on behalf of the cement process engineer either for new cutting-edge design or for performance verification of an existing plant.
