Reactions in the cement kiln

In a wet-process or preheater system without a pre-calciner, most of the calcination takes place in the rotary kiln within a moving mass of feed. This situation is not ideal for calcination because heat transfer has to take place through a large mass of material and CO 2 has to escape outwards as heat moves inwards.
