What is known as clinker?
Clinker is the backbone of cement production. It is essentially a mix of limestone and minerals that have been heated in a kiln and have been transformed by this heat. When limestone is converted to clinker, CO2 is released (also known as process emissions).
What is a clinker in a coal stove?
Clinkers, also known as slag, and in coal fired boilers consist of the noncombustible elements and minerals found in coal that melt and fuse together as lumpy ashes from coal combustion. Clinkers resemble volcanic ash and lava. They occur in the high-temperature furnace area of the boiler.
