To treat organic sludge while keeping facility costs, cement production efficiency, and a reduction in clinker production amount to a minimum. An organic sludge treatment device includes: a fractionation device 7 that fractionates a preheated raw material R2 from a preheater cyclone 4C excluding a bottommost cyclone of a cement burning device 1; a mixing device 8 that mixes an organic sludge S with the fractionated preheated raw material, and that dries the organic sludge using sensible heat of the preheated raw material; and a supply device (mixture chute 12, double-flap damper 13, shut damper 14) that supplies a mixture M from the mixing device to a calciner furnace 5 of the cement burning device or to a duct disposed between a kiln inlet portion of a cement kiln 2 and the calciner furnace. The treatment device may be provided with an introduction device for introducing an exhaust gas G2 including dust, odor and water vapor from the mixing device to a gas outlet of a bottommost cyclone 4A of the cement burning device.

A rotary furnace comprises a roller (2), a feeding end of the roller (2) being higher than a discharge end of the roller (2), and also comprises: a feeding device (1), communicated with the feeding end of the roller (2) in a way of rotary seal; a discharge device (6), communicated with the discharge end of the roller (2) in a way of rotary seal; a driving device, arranged outside the roller (2) and used for driving the roller (2) to make reciprocating oscillation around the rotating axis thereof; a support device, arranged outside the roller (2) and used for rotating and supporting the roller (2); a control device, connected to the driving device by a lead and used for controlling the radian of the reciprocating oscillation of the roller (2). A roller (2) only oscillates at a certain radian and does not rotate along the single direction, such that a device or a pipeline used for fabrication processing can be arranged on the outer wall of the roller (2); and furthermore, the oscillation of the roller (2) is not limited, which is beneficial to the treatment such as heating, cooling and reacting for materials.

Processes and plants for producing cement clinker, in which an oxygen-containing gas having a proportion of 15% by volume or less of nitrogen and a proportion of 50% by volume or more of oxygen is conveyed from a first section of the cooler directly adjoining the top of the furnace into the rotary furnace and is optionally additionally conveyed to the calciner, and where the total gas streams fed in to the combustion processes consist to an extent of more than 50% by volume (preferably more than 85% by volume) of oxygen.

A raw meal delivery device for delivering raw meal into a gas line or a reactor of a system for producing cement clinker, having a connection line for connecting a raw meal line to the gas line or the reactor, an oblique raw meal chute arranged inside the connection line and via which raw meal passes from the raw meal line into the gas line or to the reactor, a baffle slide arranged at the foot of the raw meal chute and protruding into the path of the raw meal flowing via the raw meal chute and deflecting the incoming raw meal. A substantially convex displacement body is arranged on the baffle slide and lies in the path of the incoming raw meal and disperses the flow of raw meal. The displacement body disperses the raw meal on entry into the calciner with the effect of quicker calcination.

A method for the thermal treatment of dispersible raw material may involve introducing raw material into a riser tube that is perfused by hot gases and thermally treating the raw material with the hot gases. Furthermore, the method may involve feeding a fuel to the riser tube. The fuel may initially dwell in a fuel-conditioning region on a bearing face, where the fuel comes into contact with a part of the hot gas that is mixed with the raw material. Consequently, the fuel is dried and/or at least partially de-gassed and/or at least partially reacted and subsequently transferred into the riser tube.

A process for calcining a feed material can include passing a solid particulate material through a burner or adjacent a burner for being pass through a flame formed by the burner to facilitate calcination of the material. The material can be emitted from the flame of the burner within a calciner for passing through a body of the calciner to an outlet for further calcination of the material so the material has a pre-selected residence time as it is passed through the flame and calciner to an outlet. The residence time can be 20 seconds to 30 seconds, 1-3 minutes, less than 5 minutes in some embodiments. Some embodiments can facilitate calcination of a CaCO.sub.3 material so the calcined solid material output from a calciner is comprised of Ca(OH).sub.2 (e.g. is mostly Ca(OH).sub.2, is over 90 weight percent Ca(OH).sub.2, etc.).

A coal deactivation processing device includes: a rotary kiln body provided rotatably into which coal and a processing gas are supplied; and a feed pipe provided so as to be able to rotate along with the rotary kiln body, extending along a lengthwise direction of the rotary kiln body, and having a coolant flowing therein. A pair of blades is provided on an outer circumferential section of the feed pipe and protrudes in a radial direction. The feed pipe and the pair of blades are arranged so as to pass through an accumulated coal layer of the coal within the rotary kiln body upon rotation of the rotary kiln body, and such that an angle formed by a tangent of a path along which the central axis of the feed pipe passes and the bisector of the pair of blades is from 0 to 40 degrees.
