The utility model relates to a drum liner for cement rotary kiln, which is characterized in that, in accordance with different position requirements in a cement kiln high temperature zone, different refractory bricks are applied to different positions of the liner based on the characteristics of the different refractory bricks. The entire liner for cement kiln is formed by 5 to 6 types of refractory bricks, and these refractory bricks, from low temperature zone to high temperature zone, are alkaline-resistant brick, Guimo brick, plastic phase composite low-conductivity Guimo brick, magnesia-alumina spinel brick, magnesia calcium zirconate brick and high wear resistance Guimo brick respectively. Compared with traditional liners for cement rotary kiln, the drum liner disclosed by the utility model has the characteristics of being environment-friendly, chrome-free, energy-saving and long in service life, and conforms to the development trend of refractory for cement kiln.
