Rotary kiln in chemical engineering. This review stresses the importance of rotary kilns in industry. After a brief account of design considerations, the following processes are treated: particle and product motion, longitudinal and transverse transfer of solids, mass‐ and heat transfer, as well as chemical reactions. Common models used for rotary kilns are discussed. Typical industrial processes employing rotary kilns are presented. The present status of control and automation of these plants are discussed.
