Microwave Heating of Granular Minerals and Evaluation of its Effectiveness

摘要

The microwave heating of granular materials depends predominantly on their complex electric permittivity. A reflection method if its determination is described. The evalaution of effectiveness of microwave heating of minerals should also take into consideration the character of interactions and the depth of penetration of microwaves into the mineral. Parameters corresponding to this requirement are presented. They serve as a basis for evaluation of the effectiveness of microwave heating of selected minerals.
