This document discusses the utilization of lime fines generated during limestone calcination at a lime kiln. It is estimated that 3-4 tons of lime fines are generated daily during lime transfers totaling 600 tons per day. The lime fines will be collected, crushed to less than 2mm, and supplied to the SP-III plant, which requires 300 tons per day of crushed lime fines. Transferring 100 tons per month of accumulated lime fines from transfer points to be crushed could save the plant Rs. 740,000 per month based on the cost differences between lime and crushed lime fines.

PRESENT STATUS THE LIME FINES ARE GENERATED DURING CALCINATION OF LIMESTONE IN LIME KILNS. FINES GENARATION DEPENDS ON DECRIPITATION INDEX OF LIMESTONE. DURING TRANSFER OF LIME, ACCUMULATION OF LIME FINES AT DIFFERENT TRANSFER POINTS ARE AROUND 0.5% OF TOTAL TRANSFERRED LIME QUANTITY. ACTIVITY TIME FRAME TOTAL LIME TRANSFERRED TO SMS-II- DAILY 600T/DAY. .
LIME FINES GENERATION-3-4T/DAY DAILY
THE LIME FINES WILL BE COLLECTED DAILY BY PAY LOADERS(OWN) AND WILL BE CRUSHED TO -2MM AT LIME SIZING UNIT OF CP-II AND WILL BE SUPPLIED TO SP-III. EXPECTED SAVING REQUIREMENT OF SP-III- 300T/DAY(-2MM SIZE LIME FINES) AT FULL CAPACITY. NOW WE ARE CRUSHING AROUND 50T/DAY OF LIME FINES. COST OF LIME-Rs 10000/T SELLING PRICE OF LIME FINES-Rs 2600/T PRICE CREDITED BY SP-II-Rs 2100/T SAVING IS AROUND Rs 7400/T AT PRESENT OUR NEW KILNS HAVE NOT YET BEEN COMMISIONED AND WE ARE CRUSHING AROUND 50T/DAY AND SUPPLYING TO SP-III .BY TRANSFERRING LIME FINES (AROUND100T/MONTH) FROM DIFFERENT TRANSFER POINTS TO LIME SIZING UNITS,SAVING WILL INCREASE BY RS 7400*100=Rs740000/MONTH
