Abstract

Various clayey materials containing different clay minerals were calcined using muffle furnace and pilot scale flash calciner. While pure clay minerals can be easily calcined using soak calcination, mixed systems, especially Ca/Mg-rich materials, benefit from flash calcination. High process temperatures enable a complete calcination while the short retention time suppresses the formation of inert high-temperature phases.
