General description

Calcium carbonate is a calcium salt commonly found in shells and skeleton of marine animals.[4] It is an inexpensive, non-toxic and easily available reagent with a wide range of applications such as uptake of CO₂ and extraction of heavy metals and arsenic from ground water.[5][6] Its crystals exist as 3 different polymorphs namely, calcite, aragonite, and vaterite.[6] The kinetics of pyrolysis of calcium carbonate under non-isothermal conditions have been investigated.[7]
