A method for the thermal treatment of mineral raw materials such as limestone or dolomite is shown and described, which includes at least the following steps of a. providing a mineral bulk material and a conductive material and b. placing the mineral bulk material and the conductive material into a kiln, generating an electromagnetic field inside the kiln, thermally treating the mineral bulk material in the kiln by means of electromagnetic excitation of the conductive material in the electromagnetic field, and removing the thermally treated mineral bulk material and the conductive material from the kiln. Using the method described, even large quantities of mineral bulk material can be efficiently converted.
A method for the thermal treatment of mineral raw materials, comprising at least the steps of:
A kiln comprising a kiln interior, a kiln wall, and a device for generating an electromagnetic field, wherein the device for generating an electromagnetic field is mounted outside the kiln interior and wherein the kiln has a wall thickness of a maximum of 50 cm.
A use of an electromagnetically excited conductive material for the thermal treatment of a mineral raw material.
