The principal reaction of this stage is as follows: Ca2SiO4 + CaO → Ca3SiO5. The liquid formed both acts as a solvent of ion exchange between the solid phases and draws the reactant particles together by surface tension. The powdery or granular mixture quickly solidifies into spherical nodules of clinker.

The power requirement of cement plants varies in accordance with the heat treatment process used viz., dry process or wet process. While the wet process requires almost 1,300-1,600 kcal/kg of clinker and 110-115 kwh of power to manufacture 1 tonne of cement, the dry process requires 720-990 kcal/kg of clinker and 95-110 kwh of power.
