In the calcination of mouldings used as reacting mixture components in electro-thermal carbide furnaces and obtained by granulating or briquetting of moist calcium hydroxide, by (a) transporting the mouldings through a heating zone on a belt, high temps. being produced by burning gases above the belt and waste gases being drawn away below the belt, (b) covering the calcium hydroxide mouldings present on the belt with a covering layer and transporting them directly through the heating zone without pre-drying, generally as disclosed in DT 2407506, the improvement whereby the covering material is applied to the calcium hydroxide mouldings in such a way that the surface of the covering layer has a corrugated profile. Solves the problem of non-uniform metering of the covering material particularly limestone chips, which can lead to the suction belt being damaged by exposure to excessively high temperatures. A calcined product of improved quality is obtained with an increase in throughput.
