Abstract
Highly expensive energy carriers require revision of the existing engineering approaches in heating of industrial furnaces. The paper presents the results of research into the performance of a shaft kiln for lime-stone burning, which was fired with mixtures of natural gas and a fuel gas of a low calorific value. On the basis of studying various schemes of fuel distribution between the burners, the optimal operation mode of the kiln with reduced consumption of natural gas by 30% was identified. The lime quality indicators increase when the blast furnace gas is supplied to the central burner and improve when supplied to the peripheral burners. The joint supply of blast furnace gas in the calorific value section of the natural blast furnace mixture 9.4 ÷ 35 MJ/m3 allows keeping the performance of the furnace unchanged. At the same time, the coefficient of replacing natural gas with blast furnace gas is close to unity The proposed mode of heating the furnace with a capacity of 200 t/day with a natural blast furnace mixture provides 30% natural gas savings
