Best Answer

A calciner is a person or object which calcines - which heats something without melting it, in order to drive off water - especially in the case of heating up limestone to form quicklime.

A calcinate is the product of calcination - heating a substance to a high temperature, but below its melting point, in order to bring about thermal decomposition.
