In kraft pulp mills, rotary lime kilns are used to calcine lime mud (CaCO 3) into lime (CaO) for reuse in the causticizing plant. As the lime mud enters the kiln from the feed end and moves slowly toward the front end, it is heated, dried, calcined and discharged from the kiln as lime. One of the persistent problems in lime kiln operation is ...

lime recovery kilns. The energy content of these "fuels" varies considerably, but each makes a contribution to overall heat input. These materials contain some sulfur that can derate the kiln capacity, and all of them lower the heat rate of the kiln. Tall oil has been used to fire lime kilns where its value as a mill product is low.
