CERALIN
CERALIN a total solution
against WEAR
In steam generating units {Boilers} and
associated pulverisers and other auxiliaries,
high alumina ceramic material can be used
for protection of components against wear
due to abrasion and erosion.
Range of Applications
Its superior wear resistance, chemically
inert and high thermal stability
characteristics make CERALIN suitable for
a wide range of applications:
Power Sector
: Wear prone
components of
Bowl / Tube Mill,
Fuel Piping.
Steel Sector
: Sinter Plants,
Rotary Kiln, Coke
Oven
Cement Sector
: Cement & Raw

Mills chutes & Air
Separators
Coal Sector
: Slurry Pipes,
Chutes & Launders
Protection Why?
Coal is one of the main source of fuel used in
power generation. Coal fired boilers adopt
the method of pulverising raw coal in
pulverisers or mills, conveying the
pulverised coal-air mixture from the
pulverisers to the boiler burner for producing
and utilising steam to generate power. Fine
coal particles at high velocities cause failure
in many components in the pulverisers and
the coal piping system of the boiler. Ceramic
lining is provided to the components to
extend the life thereby reducing downtime.

CERALIN
Protective Lining - What?
To combat the various wear prone areas in
Coal fired Thermal Power Stations, Coal
Sector, Steel Industry, Cement Industry and
others similar applications, BHEL has
indigenously developed High Alumina
Ceramic Wear Resistant materials in its R&D.
Components fitted with CERALIN are used
all over India with a proven performance.

The Ceramic tiles are designed with due consideration to the area of application and the type of
fixing required. Curved, flat or weld-on type tiles are designed and engineered to suit the
component configuration and the end requirement.
Operating Conditions
In coal fired steam generating units the normal operating conditions are:
Flow medium
: Pulverised coal mixture
Particle size
: 70% less than 75 microns

15% 75 to 90 microns
15% 90 to 150 microns.
Coal concentration
: 0.935 to 1.545 kg/Nm
Ash content
: 50% Maximum
Flow velocity
: 30 mtr / Sec. Maximum
Pressure
: 0.5 kg / cm
Temperature
: 300 C Max
The components are designed to meet the operating parameters and life expectancy considerations.

High Temperature Kiln
Ceralin is manufactured using Calcined Alumina

as a raw material. Spray dried powder is then
compacted in Hydraulic Presses to form tiles.
These tiles are then fired in a high temperature
kilns at around 1560-1600oC to get required wear
resistant characteristics. Ceralin tiles assembly to
the casing is done by using Mortar, Silicone
adhesives or Weld-on tiles.
