CEMENT KILNS

We are one of the most experienced suppliers of refractory linings

for the cement manufacturing lines.

Thanks to many years of experience gained in the construction of new cement kilns and their annual repairs,
we can say that there has been a relatively large increase in the demand for quality and durability of the refractory
linings. The main reason is the increasing use of alternative fuels, which are associated with formation
of chemical compounds on the basis of Cl, F and SO2, which adversely affect the service life of the conventional
refractory lining and the steel fasteners. At present the cement plants in which we operate, burn about 30 -70%
7
alternative fuels (TAP or bone meal), which has a negative impact on the life of the refractory linings.
4
In cooperation with the manufacturers of firebricks and refractory concrete we responsibly recommend the
most suitable type of material for the process conditions of a given cement manufacturing line. We do not
prefer refractory concrete or fireclay material, so we can really choose the best quality and mutually combine 8
materials from different manufacturers so that the result truly meets the purpose and use of the various parts
of the cement line.

Teplotechna DIS, s.r.o. performs either complete or partial replacement of magnesite and refractory lining
and also lining repairs by gunning (gunned concrete) a layer of a suitable refractory concrete.

Condition of the lining greatly affects the way of operation of the lime plant and dispensing the mixture of coke
and limestone. Due to improper stratification of coke in the mixture there occurs local overburning of lining.

BOILERS

When designing linings of boilers we build upon the experience of our engineers,
who have been designing them during the period of massive construction
of power and heating boilers since 1960s.

Repairs of linings are greatly facilitated by the original documents to the boilers, of which a substantial
part has been preserved.

We have experience with these types of boilers:

4. BIOMASS-FIRED GRATE BOILERS

With the growing popularity of alternative fuels there is increasing demand for biomass-fired boilers.

Over the last 10 years we have developed projects and delivered linings for 40 pieces of these boilers with
an output of 1 to 20 MW.

Lining is selected according to the type of boiler and can be made of fireclay shaped bricks or refractory
concrete. Material of the working layer must be resistant to alkalis, abrasion and thermal shock. The
insulating layer is made of lightweight insulating bricks and calcium silicate boards. The temperature on
the housing exceeds about 50°C above the ambient temperature. If technically possible, in most cases
we prefer fireclay material to refractory concrete. Refractory concrete is proposed for places around the
burners, air jets and transient and complex shaped parts of the boiler. Lining on ceilings and sloping walls
shall be from suspended fireclay shaped pieces. We also have experience with realization of lining for
straw-fired boilers. In these boilers, because of the frequent formation of the build-ups on the lining we
recommend to use lining as little as possible.
In the petrochemical and the chemical industry it is very difficult to select proper refractory
material for heat-resistant lining, especially due to various possible chemical effects.

We gradually forged and improved the system of

design, calculation and installation of linings so that
now we have the optimal situation where over the last
decade we have successfully put into operation five
pairs of these apparatuses. One pair is in a chemical
plant in Ostrava and four pairs were exported to the

ANNEALING FURNACES AND TROLLEY KILNS

Lining of annealing furnaces is nowadays usually realized as a fibrous lining (see below - section fibrous lining).

Kiln trolley and the lock around the trolley are made from refractory concrete and fireclay shaped bricks.
In some ovens, instead of fibrous lining, there are used lining made of lightweight insulating bricks for
temperatures up to 1250°C or 1430°C.

MALT ROASTER

Malt roaster is a sophisticated device that forms the basis of a technological roasting line. It starts with
the preparation and feeding of green malt into the roaster and ends with cooling and output of roasted
malt. At the bottom of the roaster, in an insulated shaft, there are positioned special natural gas burners
with a “soft flame”.
In total, we have designed and supplied refractory lining to about 15 malt roasters, which are located
in the Czech Republic, Poland, Lithuania, France, New Zealand, Russia and Belarus.

FIBROUS LINING
DRYING OF LININGS AND TEMPERING
Fibrous lining is mostly used in afterburner devices and annealing and heating furnaces. It is characterized
by superior resistance to thermal shock, low heat and high insulation capacity. The lining is made of mats
from ceramic fiber resistant to temperatures up to 1250°C, 1400°C or 1600°C. Drying of the refractory lining in a heat unit removes the loosely bound water used
in the refractory linings, so it achieves the required physical and mechanical properties.
The design and installation uses either pre-prepared blocks (modules), or we glue and anchor the lamellas
with stainless steel anchors. In some devices can be used the wallpaper installation method, where the
lining may be covered with stainless steel sheets.
Drying usually takes place by means of hot flue gas from an external burner along a drying curve to
temperatures of 350°C to 500°C.
