State whether the following is true or false.
Air heated in the clinker cooler is used as combustion air in the kiln.

  • A.True
  • B.False
  • C.True only at large scales
  • D.False only at small scales

Answer: A

Correct answer: True

The air heated in the cooler is drawn straight into the kiln as secondary combustion air, and into the calciner as tertiary air. Recovering that heat is a large part of why a modern plant burns around 3,000 kilojoules per kilogram of clinker rather than the 6,000 a wet process needed.
