Ciments alumineux ou fondus. Dans ces ciments, l'élément de durcissement est l'aluminate de chaux au lieu du silicate de chaux. La matière première est constituée par des bauxites riches en argile et pauvres en acide silicique et chaux. [...] La fabrication s’effectue soit au four électrique(France), d’où l'appellation de «ciment fondu»(couleur brun vert foncé), soit au four circulaire et au haut fourneau(couleur gris clair). Ces ciments, contenant peu de chaux, résistent mieux que le ciment Portland à l'attaque des eaux agressives et de l'acide carbonique [...]. Le ciment alumineux est à prise lente, mais à durcissement rapide. 6, record 2, French, - ciment%20alumineux

Procédés industriels. Certains procédés d’incinération utilisés dans l’industrie pour détruire les déchets dangereux, par exemple les incinérateurs à plateaux, les fours à ciment ou à la chaux et les chaudières industrielles, présentent des applications limitées pour la dépollution des sols du fait qu’il s’agit d’installations fixes, qui ne sont en général pas conçues pour manipuler et traiter ce type de déchets. 1, record 3, French, - four%20%C3%A0%20ciment
