A slag milling plant uses a slag dryer prior to milling. The slag is used as an extender to produce blended cement. The slag dryer is a rotary dryer approximately 2,4m in diameter and 20m long.
The customer was planning to replace the dryer shell due to excessive wear resulting in very thin wall thickness. This was a regular occurrence resulting in shell replacement every 2 years.
The customer approached Pro-Op Industries to propose a wear lining for the new shell. Pro-Op Industries recommended to the customer not to replace the shell and use Densit Wearflex 2000 HT that would also mechanically reinforce the worn shell.
