Abstract
In order to improve the hydration resistance of lime in the air at room temperature, carbonation and hydration experiments have been conducted. Carbonation of the surface of lime by about 6 wt% was needed to suppress the hydration of lime used in steel-making. The effect of recirculation of rotary kiln exhaust gas for the carbonation of lime on the combustion temperature and NOx concentration was analyzed by thermodynamics. From the thermodynamic calculation results, it was frond that the equi-librium combustion temperature and NOx concentration decreased with increasing volume percentage of exhaust gas.
