The calciner is a treatment facility that uses heat and airflow to turn liquid high-level waste into a solid. Liquid waste sprayed as a fine mist into a heated chamber contains beads the size of coarse sand. The chamber circulates the beads like an air popcorn popper, and the heat evaporates the water from the liquid so it forms coatings on the beads. The continued popcorn popper motion constantly chips the coatings off the beads into flakes. The flakes then travel through transport tubes to storage bins.

• Compact design.
• Grinds any type of coal.
• Adaptable to specific process requirements.
• Long service life of grinding parts.
• Easy maintenance.

“A stable kiln production at a maximum production capacity running at the lowest possible cost is what kiln inlet gas analysis is really all about.”

The innovative KILN INLET is the only gas analysis sample probe on the market capable of ensuring this - day after day, at a minimum of maintenance and with an unprecedented high run factor. With the short pay-back period regardless of kiln size, the KilnLoq probe becomes a compulsory application for any cement plant.

"Safe clinker production at a maximum capacity at the lowest possible cost is what preheater gas analysis is really all about."

The entire ASHOKA know-how in the process of producing clinker is used in the configuration of a gas analysis system capable of providing a level of safety that may be trusted. Working together with ASHOKA will ensure that all machinery involved is linked and talking together. This will provide real safety for plant personnel and machinery.

"The main objective achieved by emission gas analysis is to document the concentration of various gasses as they leave the stack."

Experience from all parts of the world shows a growing demand for reporting of emission values from the cement industries. Previously, stack emission analysis was often only considered to be a measurement dictated to satisfy local legislation demand. Today however, a large portion of the industry imposes its own even stricter standard as a part of a sustainability program. The measurement of stack emission will in most countries be a demand if waste is burned in the kiln as part of the quest to reduce production cost.
