With the PFR kiln, Maerz has developed the lime kiln with the highest thermal efficiency. But power consumption can also be optimised.
Every combustion process needs oxygen and every lime kiln needs cooling air. In lime kilns that work with overpressure (such as the Maerz PFR and HPS kilns), the air was usually compressed using entire batteries of rotary piston blowers. By using high-pressure radial fans instead of roots blowers, you can achieve a remarkable increase in energy efficiency.
High-pressure fans can deliver the required air volumes and pressures for combustion and cooling air with an efficiency of up to 86 %. Various customer applications have confirmed this.
