Rotary kiln burner has been developed continuously to improve process efficiency and exhaust emission. In this study, the characteristics of the flame and exhaust emission were numerically analyzed according to the diameter of primary air nozzle, equivalent ratio of burner, and equivalent ratio at center and side nozzle for development of multi-nozzle burner in the COG(Coke Oven Gas) rotary kiln for sintering iron ore. The results indicated that the flame length and $NO_x$ emission increase, as the diameter of primary air nozzle and equivalent ratio of burner increase. And according to the change of equivalent ratio at the center and the side of the nozzle, the flame length and average temperature in the kiln show very little change but the $NO_x$ emission shows obvious difference. In conclusion, the best design conditions which have satisfying flame length, average temperature and $NO_x$ emission are as follows: $D_2/D_1$ is 1.33, equivalent ratio of burner is 1.25 and center nozzle conditions are Rich.

Oxygen enriched incineration can increase the incineration capacity for wastes and dramatically reduce air pollutant emissions such as CO and dioxine by the allowing complete combustion of wastes in incinerator. Furthermore, this technology is proven to have many benefits including an energy-saving, cost-effective, and versatile application for diverse wastes compared with the conventional air incineration technology. The reduced pollutant emissions in flue gas and higher incineration efficiency are also available when the oxygen enriched air is used for the high temperature incineration systems. On the basis of the experimental results the oxygen enrichment system is successfully applied to the rotary kiln incinerator for industrial wastes. The oxygen enriched incineration system could be allowed more compact design of incinerator and flue gas treatment system due to both increasing incineration capacity and reducing flue gas volume. Therefore, oxygen enriched incineration technology is becoming highlighted in the waste incinerator which strongly require more stable efficiency and environmentally friendly and safe operationPut Abstract text here.

This paper presents the numerical analysis of process of sludge drying to know the characteristics of design parameters and develop the new process plant. Finite volume method and $k-{\varepsilon}$ turbulence model were used to analogy the sludge drying furnace. It has been attempted to perform the disposal of sewage sludge such as simple reclaiming and dumping in sea and incineration. Currently, these methods are restricted by national or international government regulations. The drying process is adopted as an effective method for sewage sludge treatment. However sewage sludge makes it difficult to treat with a large volume at the real drying process plant because of its own complicated physical, chemical, and thermal properties. The final design value of moisture content with 10% of the dried sludge can be obtained through the simulated outputs in this study.

Using the CFD method, we investigated the combustion characteristics of grate-rotary kiln incinerator through the residence time, path line of flow and distributions of temperature and CO mass fraction according to the shape of mixing chamber and the existence and nonexistence of baffle at the exit of bypass duct. The results show that the now mixing and residence time could be variable according to the shape of mixing chamber and baffle, and we could know the temperature in the mixing chamber could increase too high if the combustion process on the grate retarded.

Rotary kiln reactors are frequently equipped with an axial burner with which solid burden material is directly heated. Lifters are commonly used along the length of the system to lift particulate solids and increase the heat transfer between the solid bed and the combustion gas. The material cascading from the lifters undergoes drying and reacting through direct contact with the gas stream. In this study, volume distribution of materials held within lifters was modeled according to the different lifter configuration and appropriate configuration was used for the design purpose. This was applied to the one-dimensional heat balance model of a counter-current flow reactor, which contributes to the increase of the effective contact surface, and thereby enhances the heat transfer.

As the secondary battery market expands, the process of producing laterite ore using the rotary kiln and electric furnace method is expanding worldwide. As ESG management expands, the management of air pollutants such as nitrogen oxides in exhaust gases is strengthened. The rotary kiln, one of the main facilities of the pyrometallurgy process, is a facility for drying and preliminary reduction of ore, and it generate nitrogen oxides, thus prediction of nitrogen oxide is important. In this study, LSTM for regression prediction and LightGBM for classification prediction were used to predict and then model optimization was performed using AutoML. When applying LSTM, the predicted value after 5 minutes was 0.86, MAE 5.13ppm, and after 40 minutes, the predicted value was 0.38 and MAE 10.84ppm. As a result of applying LightGBM for classification prediction, the test accuracy rose from 0.75 after 5 minutes to 0.61 after 40 minutes, to a level that can be used for actual operation, and as a result of model optimization through AutoML, the accuracy of the prediction after 5 minutes improved from 0.75 to 0.80 and from 0.61 to 0.70. Through this study, nitrogen oxide prediction values can be applied to actual operations to contribute to compliance with air pollutant emission regulations and ESG management.

Commercially operating EAF dust recycling processes were investigated by means of unit process analysis. Over 80 % of EAF recycling processes are Waelz kiln process adapted a rotary kiln as a main reactor. There are differences among these pyrometallurgical processes by plant location and timely important things such as environmental regulations. In this paper, the characteristics of each plants are analysed with the point of unit process.
