[0031] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the small rotary kiln used for laboratory roasting in this embodiment includes a cylinder 5, and a kiln head hood 3 and a kiln tail hood 12 are respectively provided at both ends of the cylinder 5. The kiln tail hood 12 is provided with an air outlet 13, and the kiln head hood 3 is provided with an air inlet. The air outlet 13 is connected with the air inlet through a smoke return pipe 20 to form a smoke return passage. In this embodiment, by setting a smoke return passage, the high-temperature tail gas can be recycled in the kiln drying stage and the roasting stage. On the one hand, the high-temperature tail gas is circulated into the cylinder, and the waste heat of the high-temperature tail gas can be used to heat the cylinder and the material, thereby improving the energy utilization rate of the entire rotary kiln system, and the thermal effect of the equipment is more efficient. On the other hand, by recycling the high-temperature tail gas, the smoke can be diverted, the smoke treatment amount can be reduced, which is conducive to reducing the difficulty of tail gas treatment. Further, it can also reduce the treatment pressure of the cooling part of the tail gas at the tail gas treatment end of the rotary kiln system, which is conducive to the stable operation of the smoke system.
[0032] In this embodiment, a flue gas outlet 18 is provided on the flue gas return pipe 20, and the flue gas outlet 18 is connected to a dust removal component, a desulfurization component and a denitration component through a flue gas diversion pipe 19. In the utility model, the dust removal component, the desulfurization component and the denitration component are provided to process the flue gas discharged to the outside, so that the emission of these tail gases can meet the relevant standards.
[0033] In this embodiment, a fan 16 is provided on the smoke return pipe 20, and the fan 16 is located between the smoke exhaust port 18 and the air outlet 13. A metal expansion joint 17 is provided between the fan 16 and the smoke exhaust port 18, and the surface of the smoke return pipe 20 is covered with thermal insulation material.
[0034] In this embodiment, the cylinder 5 is made of low-alloy high-strength structural steel that is rolled and then welded. A refractory material layer 6 and a lifting plate 7 are provided on the inner surface of the cylinder 5. The refractory material layer 6 is formed by stacking refractory bricks. One end of the lifting plate 7 is detachably fixed to the inner wall of the cylinder 5, and the other end extends from the refractory material layer 6, so that the height of the lifting plate 7 is greater than the thickness of the refractory material layer 6. Specifically, the height of the lifting plate 7 can be set according to the type of roasting material and the diameter of the cylinder; in this embodiment, there are eight lifting plates 7, which are all parallel to the axial direction of the cylinder 5 and are evenly arranged inside the cylinder; the length of the lifting plate 7 is the same as the length of the cylinder 5. In this embodiment, by arranging a lifting plate in the cylinder, the material in the cylinder can be caused to flip / turn over during the rotation of the cylinder, so that the material gradually falls downward at a temperature close to the angle of repose. During the falling process, on the one hand, the mixing uniformity of the material inside the rotary kiln cylinder can be increased, and the material can be prevented from agglomerating inside the cylinder, thereby avoiding uneven roasting, thereby effectively avoiding overburning or underburning. On the other hand, the contact time and contact area between the material and the flame can be increased, which can efficiently utilize energy while allowing the material to burn more fully, thereby ensuring uniform combustion of the material in the cylinder.
[0035] In this embodiment, a discharge port 4 is also provided on the kiln head hood 3. The discharge port 4 is rectangular. A material blocking door is provided on the outer side of the discharge port 4.

The temperature gauge is used to measure the temperature of the kiln head cover, specifically an infrared thermometer. The combustion assembly is connected to the outside of the kiln head cover 3, specifically, the burner of the burner 1 passes through the kiln head cover 3 and enters the cylinder 5, the burner is located on the central axis of the cylinder 5, and is fixed to the kiln head cover by welding. In this embodiment, the combustion assembly used includes a burner and a variety of detection equipment, mainly to ensure the continuous supply of natural gas, to prevent the natural gas from being suddenly cut off during the roasting process and causing the roasting failure, and also for safety considerations, the kiln head temperature and natural gas are detected to prevent excessive temperature and natural gas leakage. In addition, natural gas and combustion air are controlled by independent opening valves. By controlling the opening of the natural gas and combustion air valves, the air-fuel ratio can be adjusted. At the same time, controlling the opening of the natural gas valve can control the combustion temperature, making it easier to control the temperature inside the rotary kiln.
[0037] In this embodiment, the sealing method between the kiln tail hood 12 and the cylinder 5 is fish scale sealing; the kiln tail hood 12 is provided with a feed port 15, and the feed port 15 is connected to the cylinder 5 through a feeding funnel 14; a sealing blind plate is provided at the inlet of the feeding funnel 14.
[0038] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, a driving assembly is also included, wherein the driving assembly includes a gear ring 8, a stopper wheel 9, a driving motor 10 and a reducer 22; the gear ring 8 is fixed on the outer surface of the cylinder 5 and is located in the middle of the cylinder 5, and the stopper wheel 9 is located at both ends of the cylinder 5; the output end of the driving motor 10 is connected to the reducer 22, and the output end of the reducer 22 is meshedly connected with the gear ring 8.

[0040] In this embodiment, the method for using a small rotary kiln for laboratory roasting includes the following steps:
[0041] (1) Open the sealing blind plate and feed the roasting material into the cylinder of the rotary kiln through the feed port and the feed funnel. Compared with the traditional continuous feeding method, the one-time feeding method adopted by the utility model has the following advantages: the laboratory experiment scale is small, the demand for roasting raw materials is small, even a small amount of roasting raw materials can be roasted in this way, which is more suitable for small-scale roasting in the laboratory.
[0042] (2) After the feeding is completed, the sealing blind plate is closed to form a fully enclosed space, the fan is turned on, and then the drive motor can be turned on to drive the rotary kiln cylinder to rotate, and the burner is turned on to heat the rotary kiln cylinder and the materials in the cylinder. While the rotary kiln is being dried, the materials are also roasted.
[0043] (3) During the kiln drying and roasting process, the fan is used to drive the high-temperature exhaust gas to flow back into the cylinder through the flue gas return pipe, and the high-temperature exhaust gas is recycled until the roasting is completed and the operation is stopped.
[0044] Compared with conventional small rotary kilns, the utility model has the following advantages: (1) By setting up a flue gas recirculation path, the high-temperature exhaust gas can be recycled in both the kiln baking stage and the roasting stage. On the one hand, the high-temperature exhaust gas is circulated into the cylinder, and the waste heat of the high-temperature exhaust gas can be used to heat the cylinder and the material, thereby improving the energy utilization rate of the entire rotary kiln system and making the thermal effect of the equipment more efficient. On the other hand, by recycling the high-temperature exhaust gas, the flue gas can be diverted and the flue gas treatment volume can be reduced, which is beneficial to reducing the difficulty of exhaust gas treatment. Furthermore, it can also reduce the treatment pressure of the cooling part of the exhaust gas at the exhaust gas treatment end of the rotary kiln system, which is beneficial to the stable operation of the flue gas system. (2) By arranging a lifting plate in the cylinder, the material in the cylinder can be caused to flip / turn over during the rotation of the cylinder, so that the material gradually falls downward at a repose angle close to that of the repose angle. During the falling process, on the one hand, the mixing uniformity of the material inside the rotary kiln cylinder can be increased, and the material can be prevented from agglomerating inside the cylinder, thereby avoiding uneven roasting, thereby effectively avoiding overburning or underburning. On the other hand, the contact time and contact area between the material in the cylinder and the flame can be increased, which can make the material burn more fully while efficiently utilizing energy, thereby ensuring uniform combustion of the material in the cylinder.
