Common Problems Rotary Kiln Manufacturers See From Customers Producing Lime 1. Underfiring. This is the most common issue seen when producing lime, and there are a few potential reasons for it: The limestone particles are too large. The calcination process requires the limestone particles to be heated uniformly.

The decomposition products react with lime to form intermediate compounds which in turn form other compounds as clinkering proceeds. Water evaporation In wet-process kilns, and their derivatives, water must first be driven off. In a wet-process kiln, calcining takes place after the water has been driven off, about a third of the way down the kiln.
