A Combined Process for Char Activation and Calcium Oxide Formation from Calcium Carbonate

In this study, the pattern of carbon dioxide generation from calcination of calcium carbonate are studied at different temperatures 600, 700 and 800oC. Besides, the morphology of activated char from the combination process of pyrolysis and calcination of calcium carbonate are investigated as the par...
