Equipment
Rotary tube furnace Protherm RTR 15/120/1000-3Z
Rotary tube furnace enables the production of various materials, such as cement clinker, preparation of light aggregates, thermal activation of materials for mineral additives (e.g. clay calcination), etc. Furnace has 3 independent heating zones of total length (3x330mm) 1000mm. Maximum operation temperature of furnace is 1500 ° C but since we are currently using Mullite based tube the maximum allowed operating temperature is 1300 ° C. The tube is made of refractory material (e.g. mullite tube), which withstands temperature shocks, its diameter is Ø 120 mm and its length approx. 2000 mm The passage of material between the zones allows rotation (4-20 rpm) and tilt of the tube (up to 15 °).
