11.17 Lime Manufacturing
The prevalent type of kiln is the rotary kiln, accounting for about 90 percent of all lime production in the United States. This kiln is a long, cylindrical, slightly inclined, refractory-lined furnace, through which the limestone and hot combustion gases pass countercurrently. Coal, oil, and natural gas may all be fired in rotary kilns.
Rotary kiln process: An overview of physical mechanisms, …
The rotary kiln is used in many solid processes, including drying, incineration, heating, cooling, humidification, calcination and reduction. This widespread application can be attributed to factors such as the ability to handle varied loads, with large variations in particle size [1].The rotary kiln is a slightly inclined steel cylinder that rests …

Types of Rotary Kilns
This member in the group of rotary kilns is also widely known under the term Grate Process Kiln or Lepol Kiln. These kilns are as efficient in matters of fuel consumption as the most modem preheater and precalciner kilns. Output rates, however, lag behind the aforementioned types of kilns. However, it is advantageous to select a Grate Process ...
