the calciner by tire-derived-fuel, about 29 percent reduction was<br />

The concept of secondary firing may also be used in<br />

conventional long kilns by injecting solid fuel at an<br />

intermediate point in the rotating kiln using a specially<br />

designed feed injection mechanism.18 Such a scheme would allow<br />

burning part of the fuel at a material calcination temperature of<br />

870 to 980 EC (1600 to 1800 EF) which is much lower than the<br />

clinker burning temperature. Due to the rotation of the kiln,<br />

fuel can be conveniently injected into the kiln only once, <strong>from</strong><br />

the top, during its revolution as shown in Figure 5-3.19<br />
