Chinese Lime Kiln Technology: Rapid Development, Leading the World
China's lime kiln technology is rising at an astonishing speed, not only achieving rapid development, but also reaching the world's advanced level in many fields.
There are various types of lime kilns in China, including vertical kilns, rotary kilns, and rotary kilns. Each kiln type has its unique advantages, such as simple vertical kiln structure, low investment, continuous production of rotary kiln, high quality of lime, high thermal efficiency and high degree of automation of rotary kiln. These diverse kiln types provide abundant choices for enterprises of different scales and needs.
China has achieved significant results in technological innovation. Taking TGS lime kiln as an example, it has been developed to the seventh generation since 1997. It is based on the original bridging theory hypothesis and the three low roasting theory, and solves the problem of high efficiency in low calorific value gas large-scale lime vertical kilns. The new combustion system and high-efficiency heat exchanger adopted significantly improve the thermal efficiency, and the energy consumption per unit product is reduced by more than 20% compared to traditional processes. At the same time, TGS lime kilns have shown excellent performance in environmental protection, with nitrogen oxide emission concentrations reduced to below 50mg/Nm ³ and dust emissions easily reduced to below 10mg/m ³, mostly between 0.5-7mg/m ³, achieving ultra-low emission standards without the need for additional desulfurization and denitrification systems.
The application of intelligent control systems is also a major highlight of China's lime kiln technology. The intelligent control system based on big data analysis can achieve precise control of the production process, and improve product quality stability by more than 30%; The intelligent diagnostic system can provide early warning of equipment failures and reduce unplanned downtime by more than 50%.
The rapid development and advanced level of lime kiln technology in China have not only promoted the transformation and upgrading of the domestic lime industry, but also provided valuable experience and reference for the development of the global lime industry. In the future, with the continuous innovation and progress of technology, Chinese lime kiln technology will surely shine brighter on the world stage.
