Which of the following is used for calcination of limestone and dolomite in industrial practice?
Correct answer: C. Moving bed reactor
- A. Fluidised bed reactor
- B. Fixed bed reactor
- C. Moving bed reactor
- D. None of these
Explanation
Industrial calcination of limestone and dolomite is commonly performed in moving or rotary kilns, where solids progress through the heated zone while undergoing decomposition. This corresponds to a moving-bed reactor.
