New kiln line at Burglengenfeld plant online

After two years of intense work, first clinker was received on schedule at HeidelbergCement’s Burglengenfeld cement works in Germany in April 2018.

IKN was awarded a contract for engineering, supply and installation to upgrade the pyroprocessing line to 4000tpd – from raw meal feeding to clinker discharge. The contract included integration engineering, supply and installation of add-on components for the raw meal grinding plant. The upgraded kiln line features state-of-the-art technology in order to reach the targeted production level and to comply with future emission limits. The new production line comprises a two-string, five-stage preheater tower with inline calciner and Fire Bed Combustor for coarse RDF. IKN’s most modern preheater and calciner design ensures minimum pressure drop at maximum performance and high efficiency. The kiln line has been designed for maximum use of a broad range of alternative fuels.

With the upgrading of one of Europe’s most modern clinker lines, IKN is proud to have been selected as trusted partner for this enormously challenging project on EPC basis.
