Description

A kiln is a thermally insulated chamber, a type of oven, that produces temperatures sufficient to complete some process, such as hardening, drying, or chemical changes.

Uses include:

• To dry green lumber so it can be used immediately
• Drying wood for use as firewood
• Heating wood to the point of pyrolysis to produce charcoal
• For annealing, fusing and deforming glass, or fusing metallic oxide paints to the surface of glass
• For cremation (at high temperature)
• Drying of tobacco leaves
• Drying malted barley for brewing and other fermentations
• Drying hops for brewing (known as a hop kiln or oast house)
• Drying corn (grain) before grinding or storage, sometimes called a corn kiln, corn drying kiln.
• Smelting ore to extract metal
• Heating limestone with clay in the manufacture of Portland cement
• Heating limestone to make quicklime or calcium oxide
• Heating gypsum to make plaster of Paris

This pellet burner kiln has mounted a pellet burner of 1MW thermal power.

The project includes 3D drawings in Autodesk Inventor 2014 and is made exclusively from the mechanical part.
