Quick Kiln Retrofits for TRS Improvement, 1990 TAPPI Conference Proceedings
A laboratory scale kiln was studied to determine the best position in a production unit rotary lime kiln to place a Turbushield gas mixer for reduction of TRS emissions. An actual lime kiln was used to verify the predicted placement of the Turbushield which was approximately at the kilns mid point. This reduced TRS emissions by 55.6%. The patented Turbushields have been installed in 30 kilns around the world.
