 — Conversion to reciprocating grate cooler for clinker making in rotary kilns may save more than 8% of energy consumption in clinker production with a payback period of 1–2 years. Kiln combustion system improvements for clinker making in rotary kilns found to save about 2–10% of energy consumption in this section.

In the grate cooler, the clinker is transported over a reciprocating grate through which air flows perpendicular to the clinker flow. In the planetary cooler (a series of tubes surrounding the discharge end of the rotary kiln), the clinker is cooled in a countercurrent air stream. Planetary clinkers are slowly being.

 — An artificial neural network (ANN) was used to model the energy efficiency and product composition of the precalcining rotary kiln in a cement plant. The input data are presented through the input layer neurons and the corresponding results.

 — In modern cement manufacture as a dry method process, a rotary kiln is one of the primary units (S. Wang, Dong, and Yuan 2007). As a central unit, the rotary kiln is the most energy-consuming and energy-wasting unit throughout cement production.

 — In this paper, we discuss and evaluate possible ways of reducing energy consumption in rotary cement kilns. A comprehensive one-dimensional model was developed to simulate complex processes occurring in rotary cement kilns.

 — Share. Abstract. Analysis, simulation, implementation and results of a new kiln drive system consisting of two AC motors of 315 kW each, on an existing common tooth gear, as a new contribution for the operational optimisation of rotating kilns, are presented in …

An energy balance has been made on a kiln of a Moroccan process of cement production, based on data measured on it, showing the amount of energy loss and the importance of development of a new system of energy saving.

Depending on the efficiency of the fan, for each hectopascal of pressure loss reduction, 0.12 to 0.15 kWh of electricity can be saved per ton of clinker. For older-type kilns, this amounts to savings of 0.6 to 1.5 kWh per ton of clinker. 24 ECRA/CSI, Development of State of the Art-Techniques in Cement Manufacturing.
