advantages of waterfall rotary kiln:
the waterfall type rotary kiln in hengyuan, shandong province is an improved design. the design principle is to simulate the process of volcanic eruption forming rocks in nature. it can be used to make ceramsite lightweight aggregate from sludge, silt, fly ash and shale.
its advantages include:
1) high thermal efficiency. the traditional rotary kiln with circular interface has low thermal efficiency and slow temperature rise rate in the kiln, which reduces the firing efficiency and increases the energy consumption per unit product. compared with traditional rotary kiln, waterfall rotary kiln has higher thermal efficiency.
2) material homogeneity and high quality. with the overturning of the waterfall rotary kiln, the material balls are mixed separately and heated evenly, which improves the surface dense layer of the material particles, with low water absorption and high cylinder pressure strength.
3) the structure is light and simple. because of the high thermal efficiency of waterfall rotary kiln, under the same condition, the temperature rise of waterfall rotary kiln is fast and the heat preservation performance is good, which can reduce the residence time of materials in the barrel, shorten the length of the whole equipment, reduce the floor area of the equipment, and make the quality lighter.
4) low cost and simple maintenance. the waterfall rotary kiln has the advantages of low steel consumption, simple structure, no expensive maintenance cost or frequent replacement of lining materials.
