Answer:
Calcination:-
- Calcination is defined as the process of converting an ore into an oxide by heating it strongly.
- The ore is heated below its melting point either in absence of air or in a limited supply.
- This method is commonly used for converting carbonates and hydroxides to their respective oxides.
- During calcination, moisture and volatile impurities are also removed. Calcination can also be described as a thermal process that is used to convert ores and other solid materials by bringing about thermal decomposition.
- In calcination, reaction most of the time occurs at or above the thermal decomposition temperature.
