Maximum protection and reduced operating costs for preheaters

Alternative fuels are gaining popularity in cement plants worldwide. As a result, issues with chemical build-up and alkali attacks have become more common. This threatens the entire structure of the preheater tower, and reduces production efficiency. Skamol offers a back-up insulating brick that is specifically designed to withstand these hazards and enables the use of modern and alternative fuel types.

Insulation system designed for modern fuel utilization in preheaters in your plant

The insulation system, SkamoCeramic offers the following benefits:

• Protect the lining and steel shell against acid attacks
• Reduce surface temperature, minimizing the development of hot spots
• Enable the use of both standard and alternative fuels

The light-weight insulating system, allows for low-weight refractory lining constructions with excellent thermal efficiency, minimizing the refractory load and making it possible to withstand and maintain the temperatures needed for hard-to-burn alternative fuels.

Non-fibrous composition boards with excellent protection and efficiency for the cement industry 

For productions using fuels such as coal, natural gas and oil, Skamol also offers the multiple products within the SkamoCeramic system. These products are constructed from a non-fibrous composition, granting them great thermal insulating properties, providing you with:

• An outstanding protection throughout the temperature range
• A considerable reduction of the energy consumption
• A fast and simple mounting, reducing production down-time
• An excellent protection against alkali attacks
