Model Based Temperature Control of Lime Kiln Process
Abstract
The operational objective of a kiln is to produce good quality lime. Secondary objectives include minimization of the energy utilization and maintaining the front end and back end temperature i.e. temperature of the hot lime within specified bounds. By controlling fuel flow rate at the front end and id fan opening % at back end of kiln the temperature at both ends will be controlled.
