Abstract:
A cement kiln from which its brick lining has been removed, or a rotary dryer for cement production is used as a fermentation treatment apparatus 202 for converting waste matter into compost. The waste matter to be subjected to the fermentation treatment includes city waste contained in garbage bags, and its fermentation treatment is carried out by introducing the waste matter directly into the aforesaid cement kiln or the aforesaid rotary dryer for cement production without tearing the aforesaid garbage bags.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method and a device for incinerating combustible material in the form of combustible waste generated during the production of cement. According to the invention, the combustible material is introduced into a combustion chamber and is burned by adding at least one first air flow while at least one second air flow is delivered in the area of the bottom of the combustion chamber. Said at least one second air flow is directed in such a way that the residues or remaining combustible materials located on the bottom are moved by the second air flow and enter in effective contact with the at least one first air flow.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a non-polluting high temperature combustion system which comprises in combination a graphite-lined combustion chamber fueled by a controlled-burn thermite fuel, wherein the fuel burns a temperature of up to 6000 degrees Fahrenheit, wherein the resulting gases are essentially pollution free; the system also include a means of passing a substrate into and out of the combustion chamber and/or a turbine powered by gases from the combustion products, means of injecting a working fluid into the combustion gases upstream of the turbine, a heat recovery means that comprises a geo-thermal hot rock bed, a steam generator utilizing heat from the geo-thermal hot rock bed, a working fluid separation means which comprises a condenser, and means of liquefying the remaining gases for commercial use.
Abstract:
A method of recycling building materials is described, including the steps of introducing the building material into a cement kiln or a boiler, and combusting a combustible portion of the building material as a fuel within the kiln or boiler. The noncombustible portion of the building material is incorporated into a clinker material within the kiln or used to reduce emissions form the boiler.
Abstract:
The co-combustion process may comprise the following unit operations: routing of hot gas (10) generated in the clinker cooling process to a rotary kiln (1); use of part of the rotary kiln exhaust gas to dry solid wastes in rotary dryers; leading the gases from both the dryer and the combustion kiln to the secondary combustion chamber (2); use of additional fuel to boost up the secondary combustion chamber reaction temperature to as high as 1200° C.; primary dry gas scrubbing in a precalciner or precalciners (3, 3a); heat recovery (4) and power generation; secondary gas scrubbing (5) in a semi-dry scrubber, bag filtering after activated carbon injection and returning of all the collected ash and used carbon into the waste kiln and/or a cement kiln. Detrimental materials for cement processing generated by waste combustion can be by-passed to a scrubbing system and a cement kiln. Residue slag from waste kilns can be treated and reused.
Abstract:
The invention relates to the production of cement clinker from cement raw material, wherein preheated raw material is calcined in a calcination zone, then finally burnt to cement clinker in a sintering combustion zone of a kiln supplied with fuel, and the hot cement is cooled in a cooler, and wherein fuel gas is generated from waste-derived fuels in a gasification reactor to which at least one gas conveying pipe for a reagent is connected and which is connected via at least one fuel gas pipe to at least one combustion zone. In order to increase the reaction rate of the lumpy waste-derived fuels and thus to achieve optimum fuel gas generation in the gasification reactor, a reagent introduction zone is constructed in the gasification reactor in the region above a solids bed made up of the waste-derived fuels, and reagent introduction connections uniformly distributed over the circumference of the reactor open into the reagent introduction zone in such a way that in the region of this introduction zone the reagent can be introduced with a high pulsation to create a pre-selected flow form.

Abstract:
A decomposition processing apparatus 1 for PCB prolongs a staying time of PCB even in a vertical furnace or the like. In the decomposition processing apparatus 1 for PCB which heats and decomposes supplied PCB 2, staying means 3 which has the affinity to PCB 2 is provided so as to guide PCB 2 and obtain a staying time during which PCB 2 is satisfactorily subjected to thermolysis.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus is described for environmentally sound usage of combustible hazardous waste as supplemental fuel in operating rotary cement kilns. The apparatus comprises an open port in the rotary vessel at a point where during cement kiln operation the in-process mineral material is in a calcining state and where kiln gas temperatures are sufficient to decompose volatile components of the waste fuel. A drop tube extending from the port into the kiln is provided to prevent in-process mineral from escaping through the port during rotation of the rotary vessel. Combustible solids are delivered through the port under the force of gravity and air is continuously drawn into the rotary vessel through the open port during kiln operation. The apparatus and method allow efficient usage of combustible solid waste as a supplemental fuel for cement kiln operation.
