Zusammenfassung:There is provided herein a process for producing metal oxide in a flash calciner, the process comprising:a. pre-heating a metal carbonate particulate stream, prior to the particulate stream being fed into the flash calciner; and,b. calcining the particulate stream in a flash calciner to produce a raw stream comprising metal oxide and a flue gas comprising CO2,wherein at least a portion of the flue gas comprising CO2 produced in step (b) is used to pre-heat the metal carbonate particulate in step (a).
