The world has recognized the severity of global warming, leading to the establishment of various international agreements to address this issue. The European Commission announced the European Green Deal, and Korea declared the "2050 Carbon Neutral Vision (Net-Zero)". In line with these policies, the cement industry is working towards carbon neutrality by replacing fuels used in the production process with circular resources, to increase fuel substitution to 65% by 2030. However, waste polymeric compounds such as waste plastics, waste tires, and waste synthetic resins contain low-melting trace components such as chlorine. These components exhibit the behavior of volatilization and condensation in kilns and areas where hot gases pass through, causing coatings on the inner walls of the equipment. Chlorine, in particular, can be unnecessarily present in the cement produced, and high chlorine content can oxidize rebar and leach heavy metals, causing environmental pollution. Therefore, it is essential to install a chlorine bypass (CBP) system to rapidly cool and remove high concentrations of volatile chlorine in particulate form. To do this, it is important to understand the behavior of the volatile chlorine circulating within the system along with the flow in the rising ducts and identify where it stagnates at high concentrations. This study utilized Ansys Fluent 2024 R1, a computational fluid dynamics (CFD)-based analysis program, to analyze the flow in the rising duct.
