Unitherm-Cemcon supplies MAS burners to South Korean plant

Unitherm-Cemcon has commissioned a MAS burner for a South Korean cement producer in May 2019. The start-up took just four days.

The Austrian burner company won a contract to supply three MAS kiln burners at a South Korean plant in late 2018. The first burner was delivered in February 2019 and the remaining two in March 2019.

The scope of supply included two MAS/4/KO.SO burners for coal and heavy oil with 43MW and one MAS/7/KO.SO.X rotary burner for coal, heavy oil and solid fuels with 87MW.

Unitherm-Cemcon has already successfully commissioned a MAS/7/KO.SO.X burner on another line, firing 5-6tph of coal and approximately 10tph of solid fuels.

For ease of maintenance, all three burners have been fitted with a divisible burner jacket tube.
