Indirect Rotary Kilns for Iron III Phosphate Calcination

Calcination of iron phosphate can also be called the preparation of lithium iron phosphate (LFP). Iron phosphate, as a battery precursor material, is calcined in a rotary kiln by indirect heating with a lithium source (such as lithium carbonate or lithium hydroxide) to undergo a chemical reaction, improve the crystal structure and conductivity of the material, and form lithium iron phosphate with good electrochemical performance. The final positive electrode material with the required properties and performance is formed, namely lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO₄). We have calcination solutions, flash drying + rotary kiln calcinator + cooling and conveying solutions, and spray drying + rotary kiln calcinator + cooling and conveying solutions.

indirect rotary kiln for calcining iron phosphate

Calcining kiln used for the high-temperature batch heating treatment of powdery or filter cake-like materials. Also known as a roasting furnace, it can be categorized based on the type of energy used into coal-fired kilns, gas-fired kilns, oil-fired kilns, and electric heating kilns. Calcining kilns are primarily used for processes such as activation, crystal transformation, oxidation, pyrolysis, reduction, halogenation, and sulfidation. They are widely applied in the production processes of special materials in industries such as petrochemicals, inorganic chemicals, metallurgy, and construction.

calcining iron phosphate Solution

Flash Dryer + Rotary Calciner + Cooler

This iron III phosphate calcining system include the drying system, the rotary kiln system, and the cooling and conveying system. The drying system consists primarily of a heater, feeder, dryer, dust collector, fan, and control system. Due to the special properties of some specific materials, the feeder in the system is specially designed and can be selected according to the material characteristics. The heater has a new structure with higher thermal efficiency and increased safety. The dust collector is designed according to the material characteristics. The rotary kiln system mainly consists of a transitional silo (optional), a rotary kiln, and a heating system (electric or natural gas). The transitional silo can be optionally equipped with a weighing system. The rotary kiln is designed according to the material characteristics, with considerations for materials and corrosion resistance tailored to the specific material. The heating system can use either electric heating or natural gas heating. The cooling and conveying system can use a cooling screw or airflow cooling conveying device, or a combination of both.

Features:

  • The automatic control system can quickly respond and adjust according to user requirements or changes in external conditions. This is mainly reflected in the automatic adjustment control of the inlet air temperature, the interlock control of the outlet air temperature and feed rate (to ensure consistent product quality), and the system pressure adjustment (automatic or manual) to ensure system stability. The roasting kiln has high control precision, with zoned control. Each zone’s heating temperature and heat source are interlocked, and the material temperature in each zone can be displayed in real-time on the control cabinet through a special temperature measurement method, allowing users to easily adjust controls when the process changes.
  • The system can effectively control the introduction of metallic magnetic foreign objects, keeping their introduction to an extremely low level.
  • The system flow is simplified and optimized, improving material quality.
  • The rotary kiln cylinder is processed as a whole to ensure cylinder precision.
  • During roasting, inert gases or other carrier gases can be introduced according to material requirements.
  • The system can be equipped with a waste heat recovery device, which can save 20-30% of energy.
