Previously, we looked at indirect fired rotary kilns in applications such as reactivating spent carbons, pulling valuable materials out of valueless carriers, and conducting thermal processes in inert environments. Now we will look at indirect fired rotary kilns in the application of processing finely divided …
Depending on the circumstances, indirect fired rotary kilns can have many advantages over direct fired rotary kilns. One such advantage is when the required thermal processing is best done in an inert atmosphere. As an example, most carbonaceous solids will combust when at elevated temperatures …
In the thermal processing industry, rotary kilns are used to cause chemical reactions or state changes in varying materials. As discussed previously in Direct Fired Rotary Kilns vs. Indirect Fired Rotary Kilns: What’s the Difference, while direct fired rotary kilns and indirect fired rotary kilns …
Whether a rotary drum is being used as a dryer, kiln, cooler, or otherwise, it is often a key process component in a production setting. As a result, downtime for the rotary drum can have the potential to hold an entire operation on idle. For …
