Cement enterprises in desulfurization, denitrification and particulate matter treatment, operation and maintenance problems are very prominent. Taking ammonia escape as an example, although the target is required to be controlled at 8 mg/standard cubic meter, it is difficult for more than 400 cement enterprises that have completed denitrification to solve this problem. The escape of a large amount of ammonia not only affects the environmental protection, but also corrodes the kiln inlet system and increases the resistance of the bag filter at the kiln inlet. In recent years, there are 5000 t/d production line kiln tail bag dust removal equipment in China, the resistance is too high to run soon, which not only increases energy consumption, but also affects production, and causes carbon emissions.
