The rotary kiln electric furnace, also known as an electric heating rotary kiln, is a type of industrial furnace that uses electricity as its heating source.
This furnace is designed to heat materials indirectly by warming the kiln body, which in turn heats the materials inside to the required calcination temperature.
The electric heating method allows for precise control of temperature and heating rate, ensuring uniform temperature distribution within the kiln.
This type of furnace is commonly used in various industrial processes such as calcination, thermal desorption, organic combustion, sintering, and heat setting.
4 Key Points to Understand
1. Heating Method and Operation
The rotary kiln electric furnace operates by using electric heaters placed outside the furnace tube to heat the kiln body.
These heaters can reach high temperatures and are easy to control, allowing for a gradual increase in temperature of the materials inside the kiln.
The temperature is monitored by thermocouples, and once the required temperature is reached, the heating is regulated to maintain this temperature.
After the material has been processed for the specified time, it is discharged from the kiln.
2. Types of Rotary Kilns
Rotary kilns can be classified based on their heating method into electric heaters and gas burners.
Electric heaters, as described, use electricity to heat the kiln indirectly, providing precise temperature control and uniform heating.
Gas burner types, on the other hand, use heat derived from the processed material as fuel, making them energy-efficient by utilizing waste heat.
3. Applications and Structure
Rotary kilns are versatile and are used in a wide range of industries for various processes including cement production, mineral roasting, sintering, calcining, and waste incineration.
The structure of a rotary kiln typically includes a rotating cylinder set at a slight angle, allowing gravity to assist in moving material through the kiln.
The kiln is equipped with a feeding device, kiln body, discharging device, electric heating device, and a control unit to manage the heating process.
4. Advantages and Precision
In summary, the rotary kiln electric furnace is a sophisticated industrial heating system that uses electricity to heat materials indirectly, offering precise temperature control and uniform heating.
These features are crucial for various high-temperature physicochemical processes in multiple industries.
