To provide a method of forming a positive electrode active material with high productivity. To provide a manufacturing apparatus capable of forming a positive electrode active material with high productivity. Provided is a method of forming a positive electrode active material including lithium, a transition metal, oxygen, and fluorine. An adhesion preventing step is performed during heating of an object. Examples of the adhesion preventing step include stirring by rotating a furnace during the heating, stirring by vibrating a container containing an object during the heating, and crushing performed between the plurality of heating steps. By these manufacturing methods, a positive electrode active material having favorable distribution of an additive at the surface portion can be formed.

To treat organic sludge while keeping facility costs, cement production efficiency, and a reduction in clinker production amount to a minimum. An organic sludge treatment device includes: a fractionation device 7 that fractionates a preheated raw material R2 from a preheater cyclone 4C excluding a bottommost cyclone of a cement burning device 1; a mixing device 8 that mixes an organic sludge S with the fractionated preheated raw material, and that dries the organic sludge using sensible heat of the preheated raw material; and a supply device (mixture chute 12, double-flap damper 13, shut damper 14) that supplies a mixture M from the mixing device to a calciner furnace 5 of the cement burning device or to a duct disposed between a kiln inlet portion of a cement kiln 2 and the calciner furnace. The treatment device may be provided with an introduction device for introducing an exhaust gas G2 including dust, odor and water vapor from the mixing device to a gas outlet of a bottommost cyclone 4A of the cement burning device.

A rotary kiln includes a stationary fuel nozzle and a perforated flame holder positioned within an inclined rotating shell. The flame holder includes a plurality of perforations that collectively confine a combustion reaction of the burner to the flame holder to shift most heat transfer from the combustion reaction from radiation heat transfer to convective heat transfer.

An installation for thermal treatment of free-floating raw material, in particular cement raw meal and/or mineral products, may include a riser line through which hot gases can flow. The riser line has at least one fuel inlet for introducing fuel into the riser line. The riser line has at least one raw meal inlet for introducing raw meal into the riser line, which raw meal inlet is arranged upstream of the fuel inlet in a flow direction of gas inside the riser line. Further, a method for thermal treatment of free-floating raw material may involve introducing fuel via a fuel inlet into a riser line for guiding hot gases and introducing raw meal into the riser line. The raw meal is introduced into the riser line upstream of the fuel inlet in the flow direction.

A method for the thermal treatment of dispersible raw material may inovlve introducing raw material into a riser tube that is perfused by hot gases and thermally treating the raw material with the hot gases. Furthermore, the method may inovle feeding a fuel to the riser tube. The fuel may initially dwell in a fuel-conditioning region on a bearing face, where the fuel comes into contact with a part of the hot gas that is mixed with the raw material. Consequently, the fuel is dried and/or at least partially de-gassed and/or at least partially reacted and subsequently transferred into the riser tube.

A horizontal pyrolysis furnace has a kiln and two barrels. The two barrels are respectively a processing barrel rotatably disposed in the kiln and a takeover barrel detachably connected with the processing barrel. Each one of the two barrels has a gate assembly and at least one spiral guiding plate. The gate assembly of the processing barrel is mounted on an end of the processing barrel, and extends out from the kiln. The two gate assemblies of the two barrels are detachably connected such that the two barrels are able to rotate synchronously. The at least one spiral guiding plate is fixed on an inner surface of one of the two barrels, and the spiral guiding plates of both barrels have an identical helical direction.
