The invention relates to a method and to apparatus for the heat treatment of fine-grained material using a calcination zone which is arranged between a preheating zone and a final combustion zone, and after passing through the calcination zone a proportion of the material is introduced into exhaust air from the cooling zone and delivered therewith back to the calcination zone for the purpose of recirculation. In this way a good burn-out of the fuel used in the calcination zone and a high degree of deacidification of the material are achieved.

Method and apparatus for the heat treatment of fine-grained material

The invention relates to a method and to apparatus for the production of cement clinker by the semi-wet process, in which a two-stage preheater supplied with additional fuel and a short rotary kiln are used and exhaust air from the cooler is delivered directly to the drying zone. In this way, even if the moisture content of the filter cake varies, it is possible to operate the kiln plant with a constant degree of deacidification and to ensure a stable kiln operation.

Method for the production of cement clinker from semi-wet raw material

The invention relates to apparatus and to a method for the heat treatment of fine-grained material using a multi-stage cyclone preheater and a combustion chamber supplied with tertiary air from the cooler, in which the branched part of the tertiary air pipe extends upwards and the material discharged from the second-lowest stage of the cyclone preheater is introduced into one branch pipe at a point which lies lower than the point at which this branch pipe is connected to the combustion chamber. In this way good dispersal of the material which is delivered pneumatically to the combusion chamber and excellent combustion conditions are achieved at the same time as a considerable reduction in the overall height of the entire cyclone preheater.

Apparatus and method for the heat treatment of fine-grained material

The invention relates to apparatus for the heat treatment of fine-grained material with a rotary drum furnace, a preheater and a combustion chamber for precalcination, in which the cover of the combustion chamber has a central recess which serves for spin stabilization and has the fuel supply provided in its base. Such a combustion chamber is distinguished by improved combustion conditions, particularly an improved mode of combustion.

Apparatus for the heat treatment of fine-grained material

The invention relates to apparatus for the heat treatment of fine-grained material having a rotary drum furnace, a preheater, a cooler, and a combustion chamber for precalcination of the material. Exhaust air from the cooler is delivered on the one hand to the combustion chamber and on the other hand via two pipes directly to the furnace exhaust gas pipe, and connections for the supply of fuel and preheated material are provided in these latter pipes shortly upstream from the point at which they open into the furnace exhaust gas pipe.

The heat treatment of fine-grained material wherein two quantities of fuel are delivered to a precalcination zone at two different levels. The first quantity of fuel is delivered at a lower level nearer the combustion zone and the oxygen content of the gases passing through this region of the precalcination zone are such that in this region a substoichiometric combustion takes place and a CO content between 0.05% and 1% is established. As a result a reducing decomposition of the NO.sub.x content of the exhaust gases from the combustion zone takes place.

A method of producing cement clinker with a low alkali content, in which the presence of deposits in the rotary kiln is monitored using measuring techniques and in the event of deposits being present the coarse material above a certain grain size is removed from the system.

Method and apparatus for the production of cement clinker with a low

A grate cooler arranged at right angles to a rotary kiln and having its vertical longitudinal central plane spaced a distance between 10 and 150 cm from the discharge end of the rotary kiln. The zone of the grate cooler lying below the material discharge end of the rotary kiln has more stationary grating plates and more unventilated grating plates per unit area than the laterally adjacent zones of the material receiving end and in the remaining region of the cooler. This results in good protection of the grating plates at the material receiving end and an even distribution of the material over the whole width of the cooler by means of a distribution cone which is kept in motion.
