Re: Preheater fan coating farmation

The reason for fan impellor coating are connected with the process, i.e. the temperatures, amount of dust leaving the preheater, composition of that dust. There are various ways of coping with this problem from design of the fan and impellor to avoid coating, cleaning while operating or automatically balancing the fan to allow operations to continue despite the coating.

Dear YRK;

We are facing this problem from time to time and we know that the reason of this coating has close relation with the kiln outlet gas which passes through the Conditioning Tower (C.T). If you keep the setpoint of the C.T outlet gas temperature low more water from water spray nozzels will flow and you can count this as a reason of the coating. I beleive that you have problem in the C.T Water spary unit or in the outlet gas temperature.

best regard
