Product Description

 

 

Direct fired rotary furnace assembled in a fabrication workshop

 

Direct Contact Heating for Continuous Processing

The rotating shell continually turns and advances the material while the burner and controlled gas stream establish the required heating profile. Direct contact supports effective heat transfer when the process permits the feed to contact combustion products.

 

 

Typical Applications

 

 

Our latest projects

 

Shanghai Jwell machinery Workshop co-operation projects

Twin rotary kiln lines for continuous mineral thermal processing

Mineral Calcination

Continuous treatment of suitable limestone, dolomite, gypsum, clay, and other mineral feeds.
Outdoor direct fired rotary kiln installation

Ore Roasting

Controlled heating for oxidation, reduction, activation, or phase modification where direct contact is acceptable.
Rotary kiln production system handling processed mineral product

Bulk-Solids Thermal Treatment

Drying, sintering, carbon processing, and selected recycling duties after material evaluation.

 

 

Working Principle

 

 

Direct fired rotary kiln showing burner flame gas flow and material movement

From Feed Entry to Controlled Discharge

 

 

Feed and Preheating

Prepared material enters the elevated end and begins heating as the shell rotates.

Direct Heat Transfer

Radiation, convection, and contact with combustion gases raise the material to the target temperature.

Controlled Reaction

Residence time and the thermal profile support the required calcination, roasting, or phase change.

Discharge and Gas Handling

Processed solids leave the kiln while exhaust gas moves to the specified collection and treatment system.

 

 

Product Advantages

 

 

Why Choose Us?

 

Controlled Material Movement

Shell speed, inclination, internals, and fill level are coordinated with the required residence time.

Flexible Gas Flow

Co-current or counter-current flow is selected according to feed sensitivity and the required thermal profile.

Purpose-Matched Refractory

Lining materials are selected for temperature, abrasion, chemical attack, and thermal cycling.

Integrated Process Control

Feed rate, burner operation, draft, temperature, and discharge conditions are managed as one system.

FAQ

 

 

What is the difference between direct-fired and indirect-fired rotary furnaces?

+

-

A direct-fired furnace brings solids into contact with combustion gases. An indirect-fired unit transfers heat through the shell and separates the material from the heating gases.

Can one furnace process different materials?

+

-

A kiln may handle a defined feed range, but changes in chemistry, moisture, particle size, or reaction behavior can require different settings or mechanical configurations.

Should the kiln use co-current or counter-current flow?

+

-

The choice depends on feed sensitivity, temperature profile, off-gas conditions, and the required product discharge temperature.

How is furnace capacity determined?

+

-

Capacity follows from material test data, bulk density, reaction kinetics, residence time, fill level, shell geometry, temperature profile, and gas-flow conditions.
