NWCF converted high-level radioactive liquid waste from the Idaho Nuclear Technology and Engineering Center tanks until May 2000 in a process called calcining. The infrastructure from that former operation — such as waste transfer lines and holding tanks — remains, and will be used for IWTU waste treatment.

The first recorded use of rotary kilns for calcining aluminium hydroxide dates to 1935. Rotary kilns have been used for calcination of hydrate to Floury type SGA (mostly in Europe and Asia) or Sandy type SGA (mostly the Americas). ... a basic understanding of the elements of the thermal energy balance for stationary calciners and the ...

A 2D axisymmetric computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model, coupled to a 1D bed model, has been developed to capture the key processes that occur within rotary lime kilns. The model simulates the calcination reaction using a shrinking core model, and predicts the start of calcination and the degree of calcination at the end of the kiln. The …
