Temperature modification of rotary kiln in spodumene lepidolite enterprise

1. Reasons for temperature fluctuations of rotary kiln in spodumene lepidolite enterprises:

There are many reasons for temperature fluctuations of rotary kiln in enterprises, such as changes in fuel type, changes in outside air temperature, changes in material properties, etc. All these factors will cause corresponding changes in the heat balance of rotary kiln system, leading to fluctuations of exhaust gas temperature and wall surface temperature.

2. Effects of temperature fluctuations on rotary kiln:

Temperature fluctuation will not only increase energy consumption, but also have a great impact on product quality. For example, when the exhaust gas temperature is too low, it will cause incomplete calcination of materials; when the exhaust gas temperature is too high, it will cause over-calcination or even melting of materials; when the wall surface temperature is too low , It will accelerate the wear rate of refractory bricks; when the wall surface temperature is too high , It will shorten the service life of refractory bricks; In addition, it will cause material to jam in kiln, resulting in poor heat transfer and clogging of kiln.

3. Analysis of temperature fluctuation causes:

As a calcination equipment, rotary kiln is very sensitive to changes in heat balance. In order to better find out the reasons for temperature fluctuations of rotary kiln, the root causes of temperature fluctuations should be analyzed at first. After analyzing the root causes, effective countermeasures can be taken to ensure stable production. The main reasons for temperature fluctuations of rotary kiln are as follows:

01. There is a sudden change in exhaust gas composition or flow rate; when raw materials are over-calcined or insufficiently calcined, they will produce some volatile matter with high melting point (such as K2O) that cannot be completely burned out at high temperature and easily condense on the inner wall surface of rotary kiln , Causing blockage; if there is little smoke due to insufficient material , There will be insufficient heat resistance (therefore , Lack of heat supply, Resulting in deterioration of thermodynamic conditions inside the furnace ). When the gas flow rate is too low , It will lead to lower wall surface temperature ; when it is too high , It will lead to higher wall surface temperature .

02. The exhaust gas in the rotary kiln is seriously affected by the wind. In most cases, the combustion temperature of rotary kiln increases when the wind blows up, and it decreases when it slows down. On the one hand, this is because of the change in heat capacity caused by wind; on the other hand, it is due to the change of material residence time caused by wind , So that raw materials are not evenly calcined and incompletely calcined.

03. For materials with poor fluidity , If they are not evenly distributed in a rotary kiln , Due to differences in thermal conductivity between hot spots and cold spots , It will also cause uneven heating and calcination of raw materials inside a rotary kiln . usually , This kind of material is difficult to be evenly mixed with a mixer before entering a rotary kiln . The most common method used to distribute such materials evenly is mechanical mixing; but even if mechanical mixing is adopted, it still cannot be guaranteed that raw materials are evenly distributed inside a rotary kiln . After several times of mixing and calcining, raw materials can be finally evenly distributed inside a rotary kiln .

04. In the calcination process, raw materials can absorb heat and release heat. When their temperature changes , It will also change the heat balance in a rotary kiln , Causing fluctuations in temperature inside the furnace . The heat absorption of raw materials during calcination is mainly due to vaporization or decomposition of volatile matter; the heat release is mainly because of exothermic reaction , At this time, the temperature inside a rotary kiln will increase. conversely , When there is no exothermic reaction and only endothermic reaction in a rotary kiln , Temperature inside a rotary kiln will decrease . For example , When raw materials are over-calcined or insufficiently calcined , They are easy to produce some volatile matter with high melting point (such as K2O) that cannot be completely burned out at high temperature and easily condense on inner wall surface of rotary kiln , Causing clogging ; when there is little smoke due to insufficient material , Sometimes it will lack enough heat resistance ( therefore , Lack of heat supply ) And determine thermodynamic conditions inside a rotary kiln.

The process of temperature modification

In the temperature modification process of a rotary kiln in a spodumene lepidolite enterprise, the raw ore is first crushed and then evenly fed into the kiln from the feed end. The raw ore moves slowly from the feed end to the discharge end in the kiln under the action of its own gravity and the rotation of the kiln. At high temperatures, around 1000-1200 C, chemical reactions occur in the raw ore, and new products are formed. The final product is discharged from the discharge end of the kiln.

How to achieve optimal temperature modification?

There are many factors that affect the temperature modification of rotary kiln in spodumene lepidolite enterprise. The following are some key points:

1. The type of fuel used has a big impact on the temperature modification. For example, natural gas is easier to control the flame temperature and thus can be used to achieve better results.

2. The feed rate also affects the temperature modification. If the feed rate is too high, it will result in excess heat energy being released and the desired temperatures cannot be achieved.

3. The size of the rotary kiln also affects temperature modification. A larger rotary kiln will have more heat capacity and will be able to achieve higher temperatures than a smaller one.

How is temperature modified in a rotary kiln?

The temperature of a rotary kiln is modified by adjusting the speed of thekiln shell. The temperature can also be increased by injecting steam into thekiln or by using a higher grade of fuel.

How can spodumene lepidolite be used in industry?

Spodumene lepidolite can be used in industry for a variety of purposes. It can be used as a flux in metallurgical processes, or as a source of lithium for the production of lithium compounds. Additionally, spodumene lepidolite can be used as a ceramic material or an abrasive.

Rotary Kiln in Spodumene Lepidolite Enterprise

The rotary kiln is the key equipment in spodumene lepidolite enterprise, and its temperature has a great influence on the quality of products. In order to improve the quality of products, it is necessary to control the temperature of rotary kiln.

The main factors that affect the temperature of rotary kiln are: material properties, fuel type, air volume and so on.

1. Material Properties: The composition and state of raw materials have a great influence on the temperature inside the rotary kiln. For example, when calcining clinker, if there is more CaO in raw materials, the temperature inside the rotary kiln will be higher; if there is more MgO in raw materials, the temperature inside the rotary kiln will be lower.

2. Fuel type: Different fuels have different calorific values and burn at different temperatures. For example, natural gas has a high calorific value and burns at a high temperature; coal has a low calorific value and burns at a low temperature. Therefore, when using different fuels to heat the rotary kiln, we should pay attention to adjusting the air volume accordingly to achieve satisfactory results.

3. Air volume: The air volume also has a great influence on the temperature inside the rotary kiln. If the air volume is too small, it will lead to insufficient combustion of fuel; if the air volume is too large, it will lead to the over-burning of fuel. Therefore, when adjusting the air volume, we should pay attention to the change of temperature inside the rotary kiln.

The above are some factors that affect the temperature of rotary kiln in spodumene lepidolite enterprises. Only by controlling these factors can we improve product quality and achieve satisfactory results.

Temperature Modification of Rotary Kiln in Spodumene Lepidolite Enterprise

The calcination of spodumene and lepidolite is an exothermic reaction, and the temperature of the rotary kiln has a great influence on the calcination rate. In order to improve the calcination rate and quality of products, the temperature field of rotary kiln is one of the key research topics.

The main goal of temperature modification is to optimize the material's calcination process by adjusting its heating and cooling rates. The material's actual calcination process usually deviates from the idealized one due to many factors, such as heat loss from the rotary kiln shell to the surroundings. Modifying the temperature field can help compensate for these deviations and optimize performance.

There are many ways to modify the temperature field within a rotary kiln. Some common methods include:

* Adding or removing heat sources

* Changing the rotational speed

* Adjusting internal baffles

* Installing an external heat exchanger

Each of these methods has its own advantages and disadvantages, which must be carefully considered when choosing a temperature modification strategy. The most appropriate method will depend on many factors, including the specific materials being processed and the desired performance outcomes.

The Best Temperature Modification of Rotary Kiln in Spodumene Lepidolite Enterprise

As we all know, the temperature is a very important parameter in the rotary kiln of spodumene lepidolite enterprise. If the temperature is too high, it will not only shorten the life of the rotary kiln, but also reduce the production efficiency and cause great economic losses. Therefore, how to carry out effective temperature modification in rotary kiln has become a problem that can not be ignored by enterprises.

In general, there are two ways to modify the temperature in rotary kiln: one is to use heat-resistant materials with good thermal conductivity to lining inside of rotary kiln; another way is to set up an annular cooler outside of rotary kiln so that heat can be effectively dissipated.

The specific implementation method of temperature modification should be based on the specific situation of enterprises. In general, enterprise can take both ways to achieve effective temperature modification and produce good results.

The Worst Temperature Modification of Rotary Kiln in Spodumene Lepidolite Enterprise

The traditional rotary kiln used in spodumene lepidolite enterprises has many disadvantages, such as low thermal efficiency, easy to produce dead corner and ring material, and difficulty in controlling the temperature. In order to overcome these shortcomings, some companies have developed new types of rotary kilns, which have been widely used in production. However, the new rotary kiln also has its own problems, the most serious of which is the "worst temperature modification".

The worst temperature modification of the rotary kiln is caused by the fact that the hot air inlet is too small or the existent air outlet is blocked. As a result, the flue gas flow in the rotary kiln is not smooth, and the heat exchange between the flue gas and the raw material is not sufficient. This will cause a large temperature difference between the two ends of the rotary kiln, and even lead to local melting of materials. In addition, if the problem is not solved in time, it will also shorten the service life of the rotary kiln.

At present, there are two ways to solve this problem: one is to increase the hot air inlet and ensure that enough hot air can enter; The other way is to set up an exhaust fan at the end of rotary kiln tail to timely discharge part of flue gas, so as to reduce flue gas accumulation and improve heat exchange condition. No matter which method is used, it needs to be done by a specialized manufacturer.

In summary, the worst temperature modification of rotary kiln is a common problem in spodumene lepidolite enterprises. In order to solve this problem, we must choose a reliable and experienced manufacturer with enough professional experience.
