What is a lime kiln

Lime kiln: kiln used to calcine limestone to produce quicklime

It's process is, limestone and fuel loaded into the lime kiln (if the gas fuel through the pipeline and the burner into the) preheating to 850 degrees to start decomposition, to 1200 degrees to complete the calcination, and then cooled, and then unloaded out of the kiln. That is to complete the production of quicklime products. Different kiln shape has different preheating, calcination, cooling and unloading ash. But there are a few process principles are the same that is: high quality raw materials, lime quality; high calorific value of fuel, the number of less consumption; limestone particle size and calcination time is proportional; lime activity and calcination time, calcination temperature is inversely proportional.
