METHOD OF AND APPARATUS FOR BURNING CEMENT INCLUDING ATOMIZING DRYER IN CYCLONE PREHEATER BYPASS

摘要

In the manufacture of cement clinker from cement raw materials containing an undesirably high amount of alkalis, a rotary kiln having a preheater for the raw materials is employed. A portion of the effluent gases from the kiln is caused to bypass the preheater as a separate divisional flow. Water is atomized into this flow in such amounts that substantially all of the alkalis entrained therein in the form of solids, liquid or vapor are struck by the atomized fine drops of water. All of the water is vaporized in the hot flow of gas so that a substantial part of the alkalis is precipitated in the form of a fine dry powder, and the gas is simultaneously cooled.
