- Calcium carbonate is
a chemical compound, with chemical formula CaCO3. It is commonly used
medicinally as a calcium supplement or as an antacid. Calcium carbonate
is the active ingredient in agricultural lime.
- The vast majority of
calcium carbonate used in industry is extracted by mining or quarrying.
Pure calcium carbonate (e.g. for food or pharmaceutical use), can be
produced from a pure quarried source (usually marble) or it can be
prepared by passing carbon dioxide into a solution of calcium
hydroxide.
- The major raw
material required for the manufacture of Precipitated Calcium carbonate
is Limestone. Limestone is abundantly available. Best quality limestone
is available with Binny Limited, Mines at Rayalacheruvu.
- Production Process
includes: The calcination process, milk of lime/calcium hydroxide,
carbonation, drying.
- Technologies used to
produce calcium carbonate are technology based on crystal morphology and
Acid Tolerant Technology.
- Calcium carbonate
finds applications in Plastics, Paints and surface coatings, Paper ,
Food and Pharmaceuticals, Putty, Caulks and Sealants , Rubber industry,
Cosmetic industry, Explosive and Pyrotechnic industry.
- In developed
countries, the paper industry is the largest consumer of Calcium
carbonate, as a filler and in coatings. In developed countries, next to
paper industry, paint industry is second in consumption of Calcium
carbonate. They are widely used both in alkyd and latex flat wall
paints.
- Calcium carbonate
are approved by the Foods and Drug Administration of USA, primarily for
Calcium enrichment for chewing gum based and for cherry
brining.
- Calcium carbonate is
known as whiting in ceramics/ glazing applications, where it is used as
a common ingredient for many glazes in its white powdered form. When a
glaze containing this material is fired in a kiln, the whiting acts as a
flux material in the glaze.
- Calcium Carbonate
industry is of particular relevance to Indian conditions, in view of the
adequate availability of raw material namely Lime Stone in the country
and also the fact that the economic capacity of Calcium Carbonate and
the project cost would not be high.
- Considering the fact
that the consumers of Calcium Carbonate like toothpaste would opt for
good quality of the product even without consideration for marginal
increase in price, ensuring adequate quality would significantly help
the project in the competitive market.
- The use of
Precipitated Calcium Carbonate in paper is forecast to rise by an
average of 5% a year
- The use of
Precipitated Calcium Carbonate in other applications is also rising,
with significant growth expected in plastics. Consumption of
Precipitated Calcium Carbonate in plastics is closely linked to demand
for PVC, which is in turn closely related to activity in the
construction industry. Growth of around 2% per year is forecast, with
the majority of the increase in Asian countries, especially China and
India. World consumption of Precipitated Calcium Carbonate in plastics
is expected to rise from from year to year substantially
- The global
ground and precipitated calcium carbonate market is expected to
reach an estimated $23.5 billion by 2022 with a CAGR of 4.6%
from 2017 to 2022. The major growth drivers for this market are
increasing per capita paper consumption and growth in plastic
demand in the building and construction industries.
