Implemented unit
Calcination rotary kiln
Rotary kiln unit for solids flowsheets with thermal treatment or calcination steps.
Drying Unit - Implemented in DyssolPro
Model calcination rotary kilns as part of a larger solids process. Connect feed preparation, drying, separation, and downstream handling in one dynamic flowsheet.
The DyssolPro unit library lists calcination rotary kiln, and the zeolite-production example uses rotary-kiln calcination in an end-to-end Dyssol flowsheet.
A kiln page for process-level studies, not isolated equipment sizing.
Use rotary-kiln models where calcination affects downstream product properties and the kiln must be evaluated together with upstream units.
Implemented unit
Rotary kiln unit for solids flowsheets with thermal treatment or calcination steps.
Application context
Dyssol examples connect synthesis, decanter washing, spray drying, and two-stage rotary-kiln calcination.
Evaluate calcination with the surrounding process rather than as a disconnected block.
Bring in the material state produced by synthesis, drying, classification, or storage units.
Keep particle-centered properties available across the flowsheet for downstream analysis.
Use Model Maker or DyssolTEC services for project-specific kiln correlations and reaction logic.
| Study | What Dyssol connects | Typical result |
|---|---|---|
| Calcination train | Synthesis, decanter, spray dryer, rotary kiln, and product handling. | Process-level effect of upstream changes on kiln feed. |
| Thermal treatment | Kiln operation with particle properties and material composition. | Dynamic product-property trends through the kiln step. |
| Custom kiln logic | Built-in flowsheet framework plus Model Maker extensions. | Company-specific calcination model in the same simulation environment. |
Time-dependent simulation for startup, shutdown, batch, semi-batch, and continuous operating scenarios.
Particle-centered modeling with interdependent properties such as size, composition, and moisture across connected units.
PSD tracking and transformation-matrix workflows for process studies where particle size distribution matters.
Model Maker supports implementation, testing, and validation of company-specific unit models.
Compare parameter sets inside the connected process instead of studying one isolated apparatus.
Use the integrated sensitivity analysis tool for implemented process units in DyssolPro.
Evaluate process settings against target product properties or process-performance metrics.
Extend the model library when a project needs proprietary correlations, geometry, or company-specific logic.
Existing application example
End-to-end catalyst process with synthesis, decanter washing/concentration, spray drying, and two-stage rotary-kiln calcination. Dyssol connected surrogate synthesis models with dynamic downstream units in one flowsheet.
