About This Book

Heat Transfer in the Chemical, Food and Pharmaceutical Industries, a new volume in the Industrial Equipment for Chemical Engineering set, includes thirteen independent volumes on how to perform the selection and calculation of equipment involved in the thirteen basic operations of process engineering, offering readers reliable and simple, easy to follow methods.

Throughout these concise and easy-to-use books, the author uses his vast practical experience and precise knowledge of global research to present an in-depth study of a variety of aspects within the field of chemical engineering.

  • In this volume, the author focuses the heat exchanges between gases, liquids, divided solids and compact solids without changes of phase.
  • This book includes discussion on changes of phase, heat exchange processes, combustion and the necessary equipment to measure these.
  • The chapters are complemented with appendices which provide additional information as well as any associated references.

Rotary Calcination Kiln: Heat Exchange by Radiation

Abstract

Calcination is the thermal dehydration of a metal hydroxide or of a salt. Cement kilns are not, technically speaking, calcination kilns, but the same technique is used.

1.1 General points

1.1.1 Purpose of calcination kilns

Calcination is the thermal dehydration of a metal hydroxide or of a salt. Cement kilns are not, technically speaking, calcination kilns, but the same technique is used.

1.1.2 Specific characteristics of heat transfer

In this case, heat is not transferred by convection, but rather by radiation; the wall of the kiln, which is heated using gas, transfers this heat to the product at points where direct contact occurs due to the rotation of the kiln. This regeneration effect may represent between 30% and 40% of the ov...
