Abstract

A continuous calciner, particularly advantageous in converting gypsum to plaster, with two coaxial cylindrical walls, provides for heating air within the inner cylinder and then directing the air, for conveying and heating fine particles, along a spiral path, between the walls of the two coaxial cylinders, extending from one end of the calciner to an exit at the second end.
