In cement production, the rotary kiln is a rotating furnace tube for baking and turning the raw material into cement clinker (Sharabiany, Fatehi, and Araabi Citation 2011). This long cylinder (based on the plant capacity, the length could be 70 m with around 5 m diameter) can produce over 2,000 tons of clinker per day.

The cement kiln
Manufacturing - the cement kiln. Most Portland cement is made in a rotary kiln. Basically, this is a long cylinder rotating about its axis once every minute or two. The axis is inclined at a slight angle, the end with the burner being lower. The rotation causes the raw meal to gradually pass along from where it enters at the cool end, to the ...
Rotary Dryer Design & Working Principle
Rotary driers have thermal efficiencies of from 50 to 75 per cent on ores. This must be taken into account when using the above table, which is figured at 100 per cent. The drier shell is rotated separately from the stationary kiln section. To achieve the rotation a BULL GEAR is attached around the shell section.
