General description

Calcium carbonate is a calcium salt commonly found in shells and skeleton of marine animals. It is an inexpensive, non-toxic and easily available reagent with a wide range of applications.

Application

Calcium carbonate may be used:

As a pore generating agent to prepare porous ceramics.
As chelometric standard for the standardization of EDTA solution.
To extract aluminium by microwave induced thermal activation of coal fly ash (CFA).
