How much coal is needed to burn 1 ton of lime in a lime kiln
The amount of coal required for firing 1 ton of lime in a lime kiln is influenced by various factors, including kiln type, equipment level, calcination process, and limestone quality. According to industry data, traditional soil and stone ash kilns consume a high amount of coal per ton of lime due to significant heat loss, typically ranging from 200 to 250 kilograms. The new mechanical fossil ash kiln can significantly reduce coal consumption through optimized design and efficient combustion technology.
This data reflects the significant progress of modern lime shaft kilns in energy conservation. By adopting advanced combustion control technology, optimizing kiln structure, and improving thermal efficiency, the new lime kiln can significantly reduce fuel consumption while ensuring product quality. For the production of 1 ton of lime, it has become possible to use around 120 kilograms of coal, which not only reduces production costs but also conforms to the current industry trend of energy conservation and emission reduction.
With the continuous advancement of technology, the coal consumption of lime vertical kilns is expected to be further reduced.
