A process of manufacturing cement clinker is provided in which a clean supply of COgas may be captured. The process also involves using an open loop conversion of CaO/MgO from a calciner to capture COfrom combustion flue gases thereby forming CaCO/CaMg(CO). The CaCO/CaMg(CO)is then returned to the calciner where COgas is evolved. The evolved COgas, along with other evolved COgases from the calciner are removed from the calciner. The reactants (CaO/MgO) are feed to a high temperature calciner for control of the clinker production composition.

Disclosed is an elongated, tubular, compact high pressure sprayer apparatus for insertion into an access port of vessels having contaminated interior areas that require cleaning by high pressure water spray. The invention includes a spray nozzle and a camera adjacent thereto with means for rotating and raising and lowering the nozzle so that areas identified through the camera may be cleaned with a minimum production of waste water to be removed.
