Abstract: A fuel being primarily a liquid fuel is ejected through a fuel ejection pipe having an annular ejection opening; primary air is ejected through primary air-ejecting openings arranged on outer and inner sides of the fuel ejection opening, to form outer and inner primary air-ejection straight stream openings between which the fuel ejection stream is interposed, and to burn the fuel ejection stream. The fuel-spraying openings are arranged on the same circumference. The outer and inner primary air-ejecting openings, respectively, are each arranged on a respective concentric circumference having a center point identical to the center of the circumference on which the fuel-spraying openings are arranged. When a power fuel is used, optionally a liquid fuel is further ejected and mixed with the primary air stream, and the liquid and power fuels are burnt together.

Abstract: A fuel selected from powder fuels and liquid fuel is ejected through a fuel ejection pipe having an annular ejection opening; primary air is ejected through primary air-ejecting openings arranged on outer and inner sides of the fuel ejection, to form outer and inner primary air-ejection straight streams between which the fuel ejection stream is interposed, and to burn the fuel ejection stream. When a powder fuel is used, optionally, a liquid fuel is further ejected and mixed with the above-mentioned primary air streams, and the liquid and powder fuels are burnt together.

Abstract: A method of operating a basic industrial plant complex efficiently utilizing energy, products, byproducts, and waste materials between the basic industrial plants as a whole to totally improve energy efficiency and contribute to energy saving. The basic industrial plant complex comprises basic industrial plants including an oil refining plant, an oil-fired power plant, a cement plant, a steelmaking plant constructed so as to be in close proximity to or adjacent to each other. The basic industrial plants are combined through a transporter for partially or completely supplying product, byproduct or waste material from a plant in the complex as a fuel, power source, and/or raw material to products for another plant in the complex.

Abstract: An apparatus for sintering a cement clinker in which preheated powdered raw materials are granulated and sintered in a single fluidized bed granulating and sintering furnace. The apparatus includes a first classifying station having a discharging grooved portion extending from the fluidized bed furnace to an opening in a radial direction and communicating with a gas distributor. The space above the discharging grooved portion diverges from the opening to a fluidized bed upstream of the gas distributor so that the total velocity of air blown through the opening and from nozzles in the discharging groove is constant. A second classifying station is in communication with the opening for blowing back small particles to the fluidized bed. In a third classifying station, a discharge chute is connected to a fluidized bed cooling unit for quenching granulated and sintered clinker while small particles are blown back to the granulating and sintering furnace.
