ROTARY DRUM FURNACES

It can be used to thermally treat a wide range of products e.g. ■■ Catalysts and chemical powders such as metal oxides ■■ Carbon for batteries ■■ Carbon nanotubes (CNT) ■■ Recycling FIELDS OF APPLICATION It can be used to thermally treat a wide range of products e.g. ■■ Catalysts and chemical powders such as metal oxides ■■ Carbon for batteries ■■ Carbon nanotubes (CNT) ■■ Recycling PROCESSES ■■ Calcination ■■ Carbonisation ■■ Pyrolysis ■■ Reduction and oxidation ■■ Separation from gas phase (CVD) THE BENEFIT FOR YOU ■■ Single or multi-chamber sealing system ■■ Technically gas- and dust-tight ■■ Efficient maintenance and cleaning concept ■■ The temperature can be measured on the product directly ■■ Variable process gas discharge and feed in the furnace interior possible ■■ Can be operated with flammable and non-flammable gases ■■ With or without downstream cooling tube ■■ Metal-free products can be handled in the furnace and periphery on request Technical data for rotary drum furnaces* Rotary drum material Stainless steel, Inconel, centrifugal casting, CFC, fused quartz Rotary drum diameter 300 – 1,400 mm Heated rotary drum length up to 11,000 mm Operating temperature up to approx. 2,000 °C (depending on the rotary drum material) Potential furnace atmospheres Nitrogen, hydrogen, air, other gas mixtures Heating type indirect, heated by gas or electricity Process management continuous and batch Operation possible Other gas tight and dust tight, cooling drum directly downstream
