Drying and firstheat up of a kiln unit with cyclone heat exchangers with a lining of refractory concretes

Conclusions An accelerated drying and first heat up cycle was developed for a kiln unit for dry production of clinker with a capacity of 3000 tons/day with cyclone heat exchangers with a lining of refractory concretes of high-alumina cement with a chamotte aggregate. The drying of the lining and the heating of the unit were done in 4 days. The results of the work indicate the desirability of use of refractory concretes for lining the cyclone heat exchangers of kiln units for dry production of clinker.Translated from Ogneupory, No. 3, pp. 46–49, March, 1985.
