— The recycled dihydrate gypsum was much easier to grind than the natural gypsum ores, resulting in larger SSA and VF of the recycled hemihydrate powders. (2) The remarkable increase in the WR of the recycled hemihydrate powders were mainly ascribed to the deteriorated PSD, the large SSA and VF, the poor sphericity of particles. ...

Pedreño-Rojas, M.A.; Fořt, J.; Černý, R.; Rubio-de-Hita, P. Life cycle assessment of natural and recycled gypsum production in …
Calcium phosphate is known as a major component of biological hard tissues. This study aimed to produce calcium phosphate by recycling kneaded surplus gypsum. β-dihydrate gypsum was derived from commercial dental β-hemihydrate gypsum, which was mechanically powdered and mixed with the liquid component of a commercial zinc …
— 7 Even though six different gypsum phases are reported, only anhydrous gypsum (CaSO 4 ), hemihydrate gypsum (CaSO 4 ·0.5H 2 O) and dihydrate gypsum (CaSO 4 ·2H 2 O) are commonly found in the ...
Treating Your Pond with Gypsum. Gypsum (CaSO4) is a water soluble mineral found in fertilizers, drywall, and plaster. Recycled gypsum is available in a variety of particle sizes for easy application. Since gypsum is pH neutral, it will not affect the water pH when added to your pond the way some aluminum sulfate treatments can.
— Chemical adsorption was formed between O of KAP, Ca²⁺ and O of dihydrate gypsum (0 2 0) surface (OKAP- Ca²⁺-Osurf) in the presence of Ca²⁺, thus KAP can be stably adsorbed on the ...
— Plaster is primarily used as a building material obtained by the calcination of gypsum. Its rapid setting time (time for the mixture to solidify) and the low quality of labor generate a large amount of nonused material. Due to its solubility in water, wasted gypsum cannot be disposed of in the environment, and its recycling process is encouraged. In …
— The Japanese wallboard producer Chiyoda Ute Co., Ltd. and its partners have developed a patented gypsum recycling process that allows the production of wallboard with up to recycled content, bringing the prospect of true resource circularity to the global gypsum sector. ... Above: Table 1 - Japanese gypsum dihydrate …
We are a consortium of the leading natural gypsum producers in the Sultanate of Oman. The member companies have created a synergy between them to cater to the global …
— Dihydrate gypsum was provided by China National Pharmaceutical Industry Corporation ltd. The chemical compositions of CAC, β-hemihydrate, and dihydrate are listed in Table 1 ; their specific surface areas were calculated to be …
— recycled gypsum dihydrate is almost the same as that (2.326 g/cm. 3) of the reagent gypsum dihydrate, and the. density (2.660, 2.662 g/cm. 3) of the recycled gypsum.
— The effects of salt solution recycling on the transition of α-HH from FGD gypsum were investigated by a comparison with that in laboratory scale, focusing on the dehydration rate of FGD gypsum, the crystal morphology, chemical composition and mechanical strength of the products. α-HH could be transformed from FGD gypsum in …
— Phosphogypsum (PG), a waste product of the phosphate fertilizer industry, is a source of environmental pollution. PG can be calcined to form the hemihydrate gypsum (β-CaSO 4 •0.5H 2 O, HPG), making it a potential substitute to natural gypsum. However, PG contains large amounts of soluble phosphorus(P) impurities, which pose a serious …
— Herein, the feasibility of recycling use of electrolyte solution (CaCl 2 solution in this study) in α-HH preparation from PG was studied in laboratory and pilot scale tests. The properties (CaCl 2 concentration, pH value and impurity concentration) of the CaCl 2 solution in each recycle were analysed. The characteristics (crystal morphology, …
— Chandara et al. performed thermogravimetric tests to quantify the compounds present in two gypsum samples in the form of dihydrate—one natural and one wasted from ceramic molds—and XRD tests for phase identification. They found 91.28% of dihydrate, …
