Abstract
In the coming years, numerous cement plants in USA could be forced to comply with tightening air emission regulations especially with regard to nitrogen oxides (NOx). The United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) is currently considering low NO x rotary kiln burners as a cost effective and efficient choice for NOx reduction in cement kilns. This paper discusses the principles behind the design of low NOx kiln burner and presents data gathered from research on an industrially scaled cement kiln. Finally, the results in NOx emission reduction by means of a low NOx burner application on a rotary cement kiln in Europe are presented
