Some plants normally don't change their Kiln burner or auxiliaries,even after switching to alternate fuel or plant enhancement. So they face operational problems like ring formation, burning zone brick spalling, ball formation and quality fluctuations.

If you also face the same problems or want to know more about your burner, fill details in gray cell so that I can calculate your kiln burner specification according to your present plant condition. email your details to vikprocem@gmail.com. Once I calculate then we will discuss / share your problem with other expert also.
