Alumina Gas Suspension Calciner
Lower CAPEX and OPEX
Reduced power and fuel consumption
Better control and productivity
Longer lifecycle
As new technologies emerge within refineries and aluminium smelters, the drivers for change are consistently tied to economy of scale, energy efficiency and particle breakdown. Our engineers analysed each step within the alumina calcination process and made numerous enhancements to improve performance while reducing costs.
Maximising productivity, cost efficiency, alumina quality
As the creators of the most advanced alumina calciner systems in the industry, we value staying at the forefront of research and development. Our experts analysed every aspect of our Gas Suspension Calciner (GSC) system and discovered opportunities to address energy efficiency, economy of scale, and particle breakdown. Minor design changes on our end mean major productivity increases on yours. Our recent developments are a direct result of our customers’ desire to maximise throughput, cost efficiency and alumina quality.
Our new dust transport mode eliminates the dense-phase conveying system, resulting in:
No compressed air requirement
Reduced particle breakdown
Reduced wear
Reduced power consumption
Lower CAPEX
An improved cyclone design reduces the cylindrical height and changes the inlet, leading to:
Lower pressure drop
Higher separation efficiency
Reduced power consumption
Improved vortex finder life
Reduced particle breakdown for improved product quality
A more efficient holding vessel (HV) design now delivers:
More reliable fluidisation
Less risk of dead zones in the HV
Reduced possibility of over-calcination
