Solid-phase reactions during the heat treatment of extremely coarse raw meal in the kiln

The reactivity of extremely coarse feed mixture consisting of clay with a low content of clay minerals (30%) and high content of quartz and feldspar (65-70%) with grain size mostly under 500 μm (sometimes greater) and the maximum grain si...

Thermodynamic analysis of ettringite formation reactions using the Born-Haber cycle

The thermodynamic analysis of the reaction of ettringite synthesis of differently composed aluminate phases allowed to rank them by the activity of interaction with calcium sulphate: C3A > S4AH19 > S3AH6 ~ S3AŜH12 > S2AH8. These data make it possible to explain...

Intensification and modeling of material grinding in ball-and-tube mills for industrial purposes

The authors, using the ratio of the grinding media weight to the weight of the ground material, studied the processes of grinding materials in a ball-and-tube mill in the laboratory. As a result, it was found that it was possible to intensify grinding using the maximum ...
