MANUFACTURE OF PORTLAND CEMENT AND USE OF WASTE MATERIAL

摘要

Waste matter is incinerated in a combustion zone external to a rotary cement kiln. The resulting gaseous product is taken up in effluent gas from the cement making process in contact with calcareous material. At least some of the combustion zone bottom ash is combined in the eventual standard Portland cement by firing it in the kiln with the clinker-forming materials. The combustion zone can for instance be a fluidized bed combustor. The combustion zone can be a zone through which the clinker-forming materials pass at a temperature such that the waste matter ignites.
