English term or phrase: nonburned lime
Some negative effects of placing coke close to the kiln body: - from the central part of the kiln the *nonburned lime* leaves the kiln.

Romanian translation:var nestins / oxid de calciu
Explanation:
http://hallo.ro/search.do?d=en&l=ro&type=both&query=lime
Oxidul de calciu (varul nestins, varul ars) se prezintă sub formă de pulbere de culoare albă, care cu apa reacționează energic, efervescent cu degajare de căldură formându-se hidroxid de calciu (varul stins).

Reference

Reference information:
lime = var

hydrated l. = var stins

lump l. = var bulgari

quick-l. = var nestins

slacked l. = var stins

unslacked l. = var nestins

lime-spar = calcit

limestone = calcar

Calcium oxide (CaO), commonly known as quicklime or burnt lime, is a widely used chemical compound. It is a white, caustic and alkaline crystalline solid at room temperature...

Calcium oxide is usually made by the thermal decomposition of materials such as limestone, that contain calcium carbonate (CaCO3; mineral calcite) in a lime kiln. This is accomplished by heating the material to above 825 °C,[1] a process called calcination or lime-burning,

Varul necalcinat (calcar, piatră de var) este ceea ce se introduce în cuptorul de calcinare, în timp ce varul nestins este produsul procesului de calcinare ( se scoate din cuptor şi se stinge cu apă). Eu aşa înteleg tehnologia asta:)
