A PFR (Parallel Flow Regenerative) kiln has two vertical shafts with a connecting crossover-channel. Both shafts work together: one calcines the product, the other preheats the kiln feed. This process works in cycles, switching the functionality of the shafts from "burning shaft" to "regenerative shaft" every 10-15 minutes.

Shaft kilns can burn stone from a minimum of 20mm diameter up to 175mm. Some shaft kilns can be operated on natural gas, liquid and solid fuels. This type of kiln tends to produce medium reactivity quicklime, which can then be used in a number of industrial processes including the manufacture of iron and steel and aerated concrete blocks.

Even in modern energy-saving kilns such as the Maerz-PFR kilns, approx. 1 t of CO 2 emissions are produced per ton of lime produced. About 20 % of this CO 2 comes from the combustion of the fuel and 80 % from the calcination process itself, in which calcium carbonate (CaCO 3 ) is broken down into its components quicklime (CaO) and CO 2 .
This IHA provides an introduction to pre-industrial lime kilns. A lime kiln was a structure used to manufacture lime (calcium oxide) by burning calcium carbonate at temperatures above 900°C. The calcium carbonate burned (or 'calcined') was commonly limestone or chalk, but occasionally other materials such as oyster or egg shells were used.

In burning mode, a shaft is characterised by the parallel flow of combustion gases and raw stone, whereas, in non-burning mode a shaft is character-ised by the counter-current flow of off-gases and raw stone. The combustion gases exit the burning shaft through a crossover channel into the non-bur-ning shaft. The alternating burning / non-burning
The kiln is basically rectangular in cross-section, but is stepped into a number (4 to 6) of combustion chambers through the burning zone, which allows a degree of control of combustion conditions to suit the burning …

Cross section of simple shaft kiln Shaft kilns. The theoretical heat (the standard enthalpy) of reaction required to make high-calcium lime is around 3.15 MJ per kg of lime, so the batch kilns were only around 20% efficient.The key to development in efficiency was the invention of continuous kilns, avoiding the wasteful heat-up and cool-down cycles of the batch kilns.
— Oxygen enrichment process enhances burning zone control and improves kiln stability in the industrial furnace or rotary kiln (Eriksson et al. 2014). We get more consistent kiln operation, better clinker quality, and increased production or alternative fuel substitution rate among all possible positive results (Liu et al. 2015).
2.1.2 Shaft kilns for lime production. Nearly 40% of lime producers use shaft kilns rather than rotary kilns [22]. When a shaft kiln is used, the limestone is preheated in a vertical preheater before entering the kiln. The lime enters the shaft kiln at the top and moves downwards through it.
