3. Pyroprocessing

3.4 Cooling

In session 3.4 we saw how clinker cooler technology has evolved to

cope with the higher kiln capacities provided by precalcination.
What type of coolers are used on the cement kilns of your
factory?
If any of the kilns have planetary coolers then how many
satellite cooling tubes are there? What are the dimensions of
the satellites? What is the total internal volume of the satellite
cooling tubes? What is the volume loading on the satellite
cooling tubes in tpd/m 3?

In session 3.4 we saw how clinker cooler technology has evolved to

cope with the higher kiln capacities provided by precalcination.
What type of coolers are used on the cement kilns of your
factory?
Rotary coolers are quite rare but if your kilns have a rotary
cooler what are the dimensions of the cooler? What is the total
internal volume of the cooler? What is the volume loading on
the cooler in tpd/m 3?

For grate coolers what are the dimensions of the cooler grate?
What is the total area of the cooler grate? What is the loading
on the cooler grate in tpd/m 2?

Again equipment and service suppliers can tell us how their
products and services assist with the cooling of cement clinker.
