A rotary kiln is a large, rotating cylindrical furnace used in various industrial processes to heat materials to high temperatures (typically between 900°C and 1,500°C or higher). It is widely used in industries like cement production, металлурги, chemical processing, and waste treatment.

Key Components of a Rotary Kiln:
1. Cylinder (Бүрхүүл): A long, slightly inclined steel tube lined with refractory bricks to withstand high temperatures.
2. Контаторийн систем: Motors and gears that rotate the kiln at a controlled speed (typically 0.5–5 RPM).
3. Support Rollers & Tyres (Riding Rings): Bearings that support the kiln's weight and allow smooth rotation.
4. Burner & Fuel System: Provides heat using fuels like coal, байгалийн хий, Газрын тос, or alternative fuels (жишээ нь e., waste materials).
5. Галд тэсвэртэй доторлогоо: Heat-resistant material inside the kiln to protect the shell and retain heat.
6. Тээврийноор: Prevent air leakage at the inlet and outlet.
7. Хөргөх & Exhaust Systems: Manage temperature and emissions.

How a Rotary Kiln Works:
1. Материалын тэжээл: Түүхий эд (жишээ нь e., шохойн чулуу, хүдэр, or waste) enter the kiln’s upper end.
2. Дээлал & Heating: The inclined kiln rotates slowly, causing material to move toward the hotter end while being heated by the burner.
3. Chemical Reactions: High temperatures trigger processes like calcination (жишээ нь e., turning limestone into lime), бууруулах (металлууд), or clinker formation (цемент).
4.

charge: Processed material exits at the lower end for cooling/further processing.

Applications of Rotary Kilns:
1. Цементийн үйлдвэрлэл:
- Calcination of limestone to produce clinker (main component of Portland cement).
2. Металлурги:
- Roasting/refining ores (жишээ нь e., төмөр, хөнгөн цагаан, цайр).
- Production of sponge iron via direct reduction (DRI).
3. Chemical Industry:
- Manufacturing lime, цав, titanium dioxide, гэх мэт.
4. Waste Treatment:
- Incineration of hazardous waste or sewage sludge.
- Pyrolysis of tires/plastics for recycling.
