Dusty clinker leaving a kiln usually indicates

  • A.an excess of gypsum having been put in the raw mix
  • B.that the kiln shell is rotating a good deal too slowly
  • C.insufficient liquid phase to nodulise the material
  • D.that the clinker cooler is working unusually well

Answer: C

Correct answer: insufficient liquid phase to nodulise the material

About a quarter of the charge melts in the burning zone, and it is that liquid which draws the particles together into nodules. Too little of it - from a low alumina or iron content, or from underburning - leaves the material as dust, which is difficult to handle, cools too fast and carries free lime.
