Heat treatment apparatus for manufacturing active material for secondary battery

Abstract

A heat treatment apparatus includes a furnace body, a roller inside the furnace body, a heater inside the furnace body, an upper and lower discharge pipes on the furnace body, and a lower supply pipe on the lower part of the furnace body. The furnace body includes areas having the upper and lower discharge pipes, the areas including a first area to an Nth area disposed sequentially along a second direction being a transport direction of each of the materials, a length of the first area in the second direction is shorter than lengths of the second area to the Nth area in the second direction, and in each of the first area to the Nth area, the upper discharge pipe and the lower supply pipe are not arranged in a straight line in a third direction being a height direction to be misaligned from each other.
