Keynote: Improved Material Performance Using Rotating, Continuous Furnaces in Pilot and Production Scale

Thursday, 30 April 2026

The presentation will look at the difference between batch processing and continuous processing, using rotating tube furnaces, of materials for calcination, sintering and reduction. We will use case studies to explore the drivers for the shift to this technology including energy usage, reduced material handling and part consistency as well as where the technology can be applied.  

Discussion Points:  

Understanding the technology 

Understanding the processes suited to the technology  

Limitations of the technology and scale up
