dc.description.abstract	A 20 kg Rotary Furnace was designed and fabricated for application at the cottage industry level. The capacity which is considerably smaller than the industrial type (100 kg and above) fucilitated economic application by the small-scale inventor. The components of the furnace such as the lining and the metallic bought out parts were locally developed and the performance compared very well the imported materials . Although higher capacity imported furnace with imported lining gave higher performance of higher refractoriness and life span. The present prototype still gave satisfactory performance and provides a ready source of relining.	en_US
