Applications of the classic LOMA heaters
In the past decades, this hot gas generator has been supplied by the Loesche GmbH
to the most diverse branches of industry and is being operated with great
success. |

 |
 |
Dry-grinding processes are one of the main applications, primarily
in connection with modern LOESCHE roller grinding mills for the drying
and grinding of |
 |
| |
 |
 |
 |
cement raw meal materials, |
 |
coal, |
 |
limestone, |
 |
dolomite, |
 |
slag and |
 |
copper ore. |

Drying of sensitive materials such as fertilizers and other products
from the chemical industry |

The use of LOMA heaters is primarily based on the advantage provided
by their very low weight compared with combustion chambers lined
completely with refractory material. The fact that the hot gas
generator can be immediately started and shut down also allows
great flexibility however and enables such drying plants to be
optimized in terms of energy management. |

 |
Drying of feedstuffs: For several years, the state authorities have,
for the purpose of minimizing CO emissions, promoting the use of drying
techniques which emit lower levels of CO. |

LOMA heater, model LF18, mounted vertically in front of a drying drum for
the environmentally-friendly reprocessing of bituminous road topping
in a German asphalt mixing works. |
The very even temperature profile at the outlet of the hot gas generator prevents
the material from overheating as a result of hot flue gas flows and thus also
avoids increased CO formation. |
