Kopar - Rotary Drum Cooler
Kopar cooling drum is an ideal solution when high amount of material needs to be cooled effectively. It is very applicable for cooling of hot and abrasive materials.
Main requirement for a high cooling rate is the free flowing of the material. However, the cooling rate is independent of particle size. Cooling from 900 °C to even 100 °C is possible in one unit, depending on application and capacity.
The cooling capacity of one drum is typically 10-50 t/h and the cooling power 1-5 MW.
Cooling is based on the constant movement of the material inside water-cooled sections, thus efficiently combining heat conduction and, due to proper mixing, heat convection.
Cooling drums can be retrofitted to the existing plant and its auxiliary equipment arrangements.
On the other hand an entire system can be designed completely from scratch to meet the requirements of the new plant.
The drums are designed so that the complete system can be tested at our factory before shipping. This ensures smooth installation and speeds up the commissioning phase of the equipment.
Suitable usage cases for cooling drums
Metallurgical Industry:
Cooling of metallurgical calcine, i.e. zinc calcine or copper calcine after a roasting process
Energy & Power Industry:
Cooling of bottom ash
