BRUCE, K. R., B. K. GULLETT, AND L. O. BEACH. COMPARATIVE SO2 REACTIVITY OF CAO DERIVED FROM CACO3 AND CA(OH)2 . AMERICAN INSTITUTE OF CHEMICAL ENGINEERS JOURNAL. John Wiley & Sons Incorporated, New York, NY, 35(1):37-41, (1989).

Description:

Experimental data on sulfation rates of CaO particles derived from CaCO3 are compared to those derived from Ca(OH)2 using a product layer diffusion control model differing only in the shape of the CaO grain. Both the model and the experimental data indicate slightly higher reactivity for the Ca(OH)2-derived oxide due to the observed difference in grain shape. This effect is considered as a contributor to the greater performance of Ca(OH)2 in pilot-scale SO2 removal studies.
