Abstract:
In methods of and/or plants for manufacturing cement clinker, the amount of chloride bypass exhaust gas  79  can be substantially decreased, when using previously cooled chloride bypass exhaust gas  81  and/or cooled kiln exhaust gas as coolant for the chloride bypass exhaust gas  39  prior to deducting the chloride bypass exhaust gas  39.

Claim (Index 11):
A cement clinker manufacturing plant, comprising at least:\n a preheater for preheating raw meal, a kiln for converting raw meal into cement clinker, wherein the kiln and the preheater are operably connected to provide exhaust gas from the kiln to the preheater and to provide raw meal from the preheater to the kiln, at least one chloride bypass intake positioned between the kiln and the preheater for drawing of a fraction of the exhaust gas produced by the kiln to thereby provide a chloride bypass gas flow, at least one mixing chamber with at least two intakes and at least one outlet, wherein a first one of the intakes is operably connected to the chloride bypass intake for providing the chloride bypass gas flow to the mixing chamber, at least one dust removal means with at least one intake and at least one outlet, wherein the intake is operably connected to receive a mixed chloride bypass gas flow from the outlet of the mixing chamber, at least one heat exchanger for cooling mixed-and-deducted chloride bypass gas provided from the outlet of the dust removal means and in turn heating a heat carrier fluid, the at least one heat exchanger having a warm inlet operably connected to receive the mixed-and-dedusted chloride bypass gas from the outlet of the dust removal means, a cold outlet for cooled mixed-and-deducted chloride bypass exhaust gas, a cold heat carrier fluid inlet and a warm heat carrier fluid outlet, a conduit operably connecting the cold outlet of the heat exchanger with the second intake of the mixing chamber to provide at least a part of the cooled mixed-and-deducted chloride bypass exhaust gas exiting the cold outlet of the heat exchanger to the second intake of the mixing chamber.
