How Much Crushing Particle Size Do Cement Kilns Need to Incinerate Tires?

Using waste tires as alternative fuels for cement kilns has significant economic and environmental benefits. However, there are also difficulties that need to be overcome. The crushing and transportation costs of waste tires are relatively high, and the large particle size after crushing is easy to cause blockage to the kiln conveying equipment. So how much crushed material should be crushed to incinerate waste tires in cement kilns? Based on the comprehensive consideration of relevant application experience, it is more appropriate to determine the tire crushing particle size as 95% less than 50mm.

Which tire crushing equipment is suitable for cement kiln incineration?

The particle size of waste tires after crushing determines whether they can be fully burned in the decomposition furnace. For tire crushing equipment, when the output particle size decreases, the processing difficulty gradually increases. Considering the investment and operating costs of tire crushing equipment, we should choose the equipment Be cautious, improper selection may affect the operating efficiency of the entire set of equipment.

Here I recommend GDT twin-shaft shearing tire crusher to crush waste tires burned in cement kilns. The outside of the equipment is surrounded by a circular drum screen, and the tire rubber blocks cut into small pieces fall on the drum screen. The rubber blocks smaller than the aperture of the screen are fed to the output device for the next step of the process, and the rubber blocks larger than the aperture of the screen are returned to the crushing bin for secondary crushing. Such a design can well ensure that 95% of the waste tires are crushed to a particle size less than 50mm, which provides a guarantee for the full combustion of the tires in the calciner.

Why choose GDT tire crusher to crush tires for cement kiln incineration?

GDT double-shaft shearing tire crusher has been widely used in the field of cement kiln incineration of tires in recent years. The particle size of the crushed material can meet the requirements of incineration. This equipment has many other advantages. Let us have a look why do you choose this device?

1. The equipment adopts GI intelligent monitoring system, which can keep abreast of the operating status of the equipment.
2. The integral knife box is adopted, which is convenient for maintenance and effectively reduces maintenance costs.
3. Each fixed knife can be disassembled separately, which reduces the amount of labor and improves production efficiency. 
4. Imported bearings and multiple combined seals are used to prevent dust, water and dirt, ensuring the continuous and stable operation of the machine.
5. All key parts of the equipment are made of imported high-quality alloy forgings, and the service life is increased by 3-5 times.

The more stable the feeding of tire scraps is incinerated in cement kilns, the smaller the adjustment space for tailing coal feeding can be.
