Title:
METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR PROCESS GAS ENTRAINMENT AND MIXING IN A KILN SYSTEM
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2005003665
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A method and system for mixing process gas flow by adding or in­jecting suitably-directed high momentum turbulent gas into dust­laden stratified process gas flow at approximately 850 to 1400°C to entrain the process gas flow such that stratification is reduced and mixing of both gases and suspended solids is im­proved. The jet entrainment of the process gas flow by appropri­ate injection of gas serves to enhance the contact of reacting materials, such as residual fuel and available oxygen, and fur­ther serves to improve the completion of reactions, such as com­bustion of the fuel and the transfer of heat to the raw mate­rial/kiln feed.
