A pulverized coal and warm nuclear fusion combined glowing flame burner is provided, and relates to the field of cement production. The burner includes: a metal elbow; and a warm nuclear fusion excitation assembly, which includes a metal outer shell, a metal electrode, an insulation connector, and an electrode tip. The metal outer shell located inside the metal elbow is partially provided with an opening. The metal electrode is arranged inside the metal outer shell and is connected to the metal outer shell through the insulation connector. The metal outer shell is provided with a conveying pipe communicated to an inner cavity of the metal outer shell. A conveying channel is arranged in the metal electrode, and one end of the conveying channel penetrates through an outer side wall of a first end of the metal electrode to form an air outlet.

Disclosed is a calcination vessel for manufacturing electrode active materials, the calcination vessel including a base portion forming a bottom surface of the calcination vessel, side wall portions extending upward from outer peripheries of the base portion to form a raw material receiving space, and at least one stack support portion extending upward from a part of an upper end of each side wall portion that is not a corner region where adjacent side wall portions abut each other.

A thermal energy storage system and related methods of storing thermal energy in the form of sensible heat, the thermal energy converted from an input energy source, such as s renewable energy source, to thermal energy stored in a sensible heat storage medium that includes calcium oxide that can optionally be produced from a source of calcium carbonate, such as limestone from a local quarry, whereby the thermal energy charged within the sensible heat storage medium can be stored until a desired time whereby discharging of the thermal energy can be conducted to transfer the thermal energy to an output energy source, such as using a working fluid.

A device for thermal treatment comprises at least a preheater, a calciner, and a materials cooler, wherein a solids stream is guided into the preheater, from the preheater into the calciner, from the calciner into the materials cooler, and out of the materials cooler, wherein a gas stream is guided into the materials cooler, from the materials cooler into the calciner, from the calciner into the preheater, and out of the preheater, wherein the device comprises a combustion chamber, wherein the gas stream from the materials cooler is guided at least partially through the combustion chamber into the calciner, wherein a residence time device is arranged between the combustion chamber and the calciner.

A particle sorting method may more quickly and more reliably obtain image data in which particles suitable for evaluation has been imaged. The particle sorting method includes: a process (a) of collecting, as a particle sample, some of particles contained in a pulverized clinker or a cement particle group, and mixing the particle sample with a predetermined solvent to prepare a suspension; a process (b) of pouring the suspension into a flow path that has been predetermined, and imaging the suspension flowing through the flow path to obtain sorting image data; and a process (c) of applying the sorting image data to a first learned model, and sorting the sorting image data according to a type of an imaged particle, the first learned model being generated by performing machine learning based on first training input data is associated with a feature parameter serving as a reference.
