Abstract
Disclosed herein is a method for processing diatomaceous earth ore comprising roasting a diatomite feed at a temperature ranging from about 850 to about 1600° F. Also disclosed herein is a method for processing a diatomite feed comprising at least one impurity to produce a diatomite product having at least one of reduced loss-on-ignition, reduced impurity content, reduced beer soluble iron content, and improved brightness as compared to the feed composition. Further disclosed herein is a system for processing a diatomite feed comprising a first heating zone for roasting the diatomite at a temperature ranging from about 850 to about 1600° F., a second zone for calcining the diatomite at a temperature of at least about 1600° F., and a counter-current flow of gas from the second heating zone to the first heating zone.
