Lime and Gypsum Production

Filtration and process air handling equipment solutions suited to fine dust loads in kiln, mill, hydration, packing, and silo-top applications. Dust load, operating temperature, maintenance access, and emission target at each process point determine product selection.

Filter, fan, filter bag, filter cage and auxiliary equipment selection by process

In lime and gypsum production, the kiln, cooling, milling, hydration, silo, and packaging points differ in terms of temperature and moisture. Filters, fans, bags/cages, rotary valves, screw conveyors, and air slide equipment are selected based on the product's reactive and fine-particle nature.

Process filtration, fans, and equipment scope for Lime & Gypsum Production

Process-based system approach

The filter housing, fan, ductwork, filter element, pulse-jet system and discharge/conveying equipment are not independent of one another; they are evaluated as components of the same operating point.

Information clarified before quoting

  • Temperature/moisture: Kiln, dryer, and hydrator conditions
  • Product reactivity: CaO, hydrated lime, gypsum phase
  • Airflow: Mill/separator and local suction data
  • Fineness: Product particle size distribution and emission target
  • Conveying: Air slide/screw conveyor/elevator capacity

How do we determine capacity and technical specifications?

Exact capacity is not set by a catalog name; it is determined by process flow rate, system pressure, temperature, material/dust behavior and discharge continuity.

Site risks

Issues we specifically check during quoting and site surveys

These are not success percentages; they are risks that must be verified on site to select the right filter, fan and auxiliary equipment.

01

Caking in the hydrator

02

High ΔP at the mill filter

03

Dust leakage during silo filling

04

Condensation/corrosion in kiln gas
