Rotary Calciner

In many calcination processes, rotary calciners—also known as indirect kilns—are used for treating finely divided materials, minimizing exhaust emissions, or maintaining precise temperature control throughout the kiln.

A rotating drum housed inside an externally heated furnace is what makes up a calciner. In a calciner, heat is transmitted from the shell of the externally heated kiln to the material bed by radiation, in contrast to direct-fired kilns, which employ direct contact between the material and process gas to handle processing.

KERONE provides a special testing facility where we replicate manufacturing settings using batch and continuous pilot equipment. This enables us to test small samples of your material under different circumstances and create a procedure that is tailored to the particular needs of your substance. We provide direct batch, circular batch, direct continuous, and indirect continuous kilns, to be more precise.

The following components can be added to the batch and pilot direct-fired equipment configuration: wet scrubber, afterburner, baghouse, combustion chamber, and quench chamber.
