Abstract

A multlfaceted experimental and theoretical program directed toward the understanding of rotary kiln performance is underway. University, Industry and government participation is involved. This paper, the first In a series, presents a general discussion of the overall programmatic goals, followed by a brief description of the sub-programs Including: in-situ measurements from an industrial-scale rotary kiln located at the Louisiana Division of Dow Chemical USA in Plaquemine, Louisiana; laboratory-scale desorption characterization and klln-slmulator studies; and incinerator modeling efforts. Water-cooled probes have been used to obtain gas samples from the kiln and the afterburner of an Industrial-scale facility. The samples were analyzed using GC and GC/MS techniques. We include in this communication a report on these preliminary measurements.
