Abstract
The complex nature of the lime calcining process with its long time delays, variable feed characteristics, changing operating conditions and nonlinear chemical and thermal reaction rates makes the rotary lime kiln difficult to operate. A lime kiln automation system that combines an expert system with adaptive loop controllers to automate kiln operation and provide significant kiln performance improvements is described.<>
