Abstract:High consumption of mollusk shells generates many waste mollusk shells. To reduce and utilize these wastes, they can be cleaned and milled to produce calcium carbonate (CaCO3) powders, which can be further used as raw material for producing valuable products. This research presents a simple, cheap, and environmentally friendly preparation of calcium phosphates by using waste mollusk shells as a renewable source. All synthesized calcium phosphate samples were characterized and confirmed by X-ray fluorescence, X… Show more
Today, it is vitally important to develop an environmentally sound source for the manufacturing of phosphate fertilizers, as the availability of mineral rock phosphate is diminishing day by day. The...
