The utility model discloses a
tunnel kiln for producing
sodium zirconate, which solves the problems of intermittent production, low
automation degree, high labor intensity and the like of a
kiln in the prior art, and is characterized in that a liquid caustic soda feeding device is arranged in a preheating zone, and
smoke exhaust ports are arranged at the lower parts of
kiln walls on two sides. The heating zone is provided with a
kiln bottom straight
flame burner, the kiln top of the high-temperature zone is provided with a
zircon sand feeding device, the kiln walls on the two sides are provided with side wall straight
flame burners and observation holes, and the heating zone and the kiln top of the high-temperature zone are provided with reaction gas waste
discharge pipelines. Cooling devices are arranged on the kiln walls on the two sides of the cooling zone and used for cooling the charging bucket and the
sodium zirconate product contained in the charging bucket. A kiln car track is arranged on the upper portion of the kiln wall, wheels arranged at the bottom of the kiln car are placed on the kiln car track, and the charging bucket is hung in a round hole formed in the middle of a kiln car frame. The device has the advantages of yield increase,
energy consumption reduction,
automatic control, convenience in loading and unloading, no
pollution discharge, low labor intensity and the like, and can be widely applied to industries needing liquid
calcination and heating.
