ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT: The study aims to solve the problems faced by JK Lakshmi Cement, Kalol. The plant is using wet chemical gypsum as one of the raw materials. The material, being sticky in nature, causes numerous problems in transportation and also overflows the hoppers. The suggested solution of this problem is drying with Inclined Drum Dryer (IDD). The design of IDD is done by generating mathematical model by making heat and mass balance. Two models are generated, One for sizing and one for rating. Both models are converted in to computer codes. Plant requirements are considered as reference and with trial and error method final design is suggested.
