TECHNOLOGICAL NOTES
M.X. kilns (Mix fire) are single shaft kilns, with round cross section and exhaust gases circulation in counter current.
The fuel (pet-coke or fossil coal) is weighted and distributed in size into the shaft mixed with the limestone.
WINNING FACTORS
- Great ease of management
- Low maintenance cost
- Use of fuel in size
- Very high CO2 concentration at the stack
- Low investment cost
