Characterization of the material and unit operations

A Kraft pulp mill utilizes a rotary lime kiln to regenerate CaO from CaCO 3 by reburning. The CaO is used to regenerate the cooking chemicals for the digester. A lime kiln is around 70-100 meters long and around 2-4 meters in diameter. The kiln is typically equipped with product coolers at the

Sinter Plant an overview ScienceDirect Topics

Apr 02, 2010 In Grate-Kiln process, green pellets are fed on oil or gas-fired endless Straight Grate machine where they are dried and preheated. The preheated pellets are then fed to a rotary kiln where their temperature is raised in oxidizing atmosphere to 1290–1400 C. In induration, ore grains are sintered together with oxidation and slag-forming bonds.

Mass and energy balances over the lime kiln in a kraft

Mass and energy balances over the lime kiln in a kraft pulp mill Per Lundqvist This report describes the construction of a model that calculates mass- and energy balances over the lime kiln in a kraft pulp mill. The model was implemented in FORTRAN to serve as the lime kiln block in the WinGEMS simulation software. The

Fossil free LimeArc

Fossil Free drives carbon negativity. Lime mud reburning in the Kraft process used in pulp/paper/board production is a major source to CO2-emissions. The lime kiln is often the last big consumer of fossil fuels in the mill. In Sweden many lime kilns have been converted to bio-fuels, which instead means that great amounts of biomass are consumed.

Atmospheric emissions of Kraft pulp mills ScienceDirect

Sep 01, 2002 The emission data, on these mills, combined with the respective production data permits the calculation of the emission factors for the stationary sources of two of the largest Portuguese Kraft pulp mills as shown in Table 3, where ‘A’ is the largest plant producing bleached eucalyptus ECF (elemental chlorine free) pulp, 430,000 ton/year.‘B’ is a somewhat smaller plant producing ...

ALTERNATE FUEL OPTIONS IN THE KILN

Lime kiln is a rotary combustion kiln where heat transfers from combustion gas to lime particles. Lime kilns are typically 2-4 m in diameter and 50-120 m in length with typical rotational speed of 0.5-1.5 rpm. Lime mud is fed to the kiln from cold end and the kiln slopes slightly, about 1-4 per cent toward the firing end. Lime mud moves slowly

US5989018A Lime sludge feed arrangement Google Patents

A method and apparatus for supplying lime sludge to a rotary kiln guides the flow of the lime sludge into the kiln, and the flow of flue gases out of the kiln, in distinct paths so that contact between the lime sludge entering the kiln and flue gases exiting the kiln is substantially prevented. This is typically accomplished by providing a general horizontal tubular duct interiorly of the kiln ...

Preparation of clinker from paper pulp industry wastes

Apr 09, 2015 1. Introduction. Paper and pulp paper production is one of the most important industrial activities in Portugal, which is ranked in third place among European countries, accounting for about 7% of all the produced cellulose in the EU .The Kraft or sulphate method of wood digestion generates a considerable amount of solid wastes.

Reduction of nitrogen oxide emissions in lime kiln

boilers, lime kilns and Non-Condensable Gas (NCG) burners at the pulp mill but also power boilers cause NOx emissions. Total NOx emission load per air dry ton (adt) of pulp produced from major processes is shown in Figure 3. According to Figure 1, lime kiln is usually the second largest source of NOx emissions at the pulp mill.
