In the large dry process cement rotary kiln industry, traditional lining materials have long been a headache for many cement producers. These materials often suffer from poor performance limitations, such as low thermal stability and weak resistance to chemical corrosion. For example, under high - temperature conditions, traditional lining materials may experience significant deformation, which can lead to uneven heating in the kiln and affect the quality of cement production. Moreover, the high maintenance costs associated with these materials cannot be ignored. On average, cement production enterprises may spend up to 15% of their annual production cost on the maintenance and replacement of traditional lining materials.
Magnesium - iron spinel bricks and synthetic magnesium - iron - aluminum spinel bricks are produced using advanced manufacturing processes. These processes involve precise control of raw material ratios and high - temperature sintering techniques. By carefully selecting high - quality raw materials and optimizing the production process, these new types of bricks can achieve better physical and chemical properties. For instance, the use of high - purity magnesium oxide and iron oxide as raw materials can enhance the density and strength of the bricks.
These new products exhibit several excellent properties. First, they have good flexibility, which allows them to adapt to the thermal expansion and contraction of the kiln wall during operation. Second, their temperature stability is remarkable. Tests have shown that these bricks can maintain their structural integrity even at temperatures up to 1600°C. Third, they have excellent bonding performance with the kiln wall, which can prevent the detachment of the lining and ensure the long - term stability of the kiln operation. Fourth, their corrosion resistance is significantly better than traditional materials. In a corrosive environment with high - alkali substances, the corrosion rate of these new bricks is only about 30% of that of traditional bricks.
When compared with traditional high - quality magnesium chromium bricks, the new products have obvious advantages. In terms of thermal shock resistance, the new bricks can withstand up to 20 thermal shock cycles without significant damage, while traditional magnesium chromium bricks can only withstand about 10 cycles. In addition, the new products do not contain harmful chromium elements, which is more environmentally friendly. The following table shows a detailed comparison:
Properties | New Products | Traditional Magnesium Chromium Bricks |
---|---|---|
Thermal Shock Resistance (cycles) | 20 | 10 |
Corrosion Resistance (corrosion rate) | 30% of traditional | Higher |
Environmental Friendliness | Chromium - free | Contains chromium |
The new products bring significant actual value to cement production enterprises. They can improve production efficiency by reducing the downtime caused by lining maintenance and replacement. For example, a cement plant in Europe replaced its traditional lining materials with magnesium - iron spinel bricks and saw a 10% increase in annual production. At the same time, the maintenance cost was reduced by about 20%. This shows that these new products can effectively improve the economic benefits of enterprises.
The new products represent the future development trend of the cement kiln lining material industry. With the increasing emphasis on environmental protection and production efficiency in the industry, the demand for high - performance, environmentally friendly lining materials is growing. These new products, with their innovative technology and excellent performance, are well - positioned to meet this demand and lead the industry forward.
