“…The main objective of this work is to characterize calcium carbonate aggregates of nanoparticles obtained in a controlled multiphase system by use of the reactor with rotating discs (RDR) [24,25]. The multiphase formation of CaCO 3 is important not only from the theoretical point of view, but also from that of fundamental applicative implications in the field of cultural heritage conservation.…”

“…[28][29][30]), the aim of the current study was to find solutions concerning possibilities in the production of ultrafine, well-defined (depending on the process conditions) calcite powder aggregates, in the rotating disc reactor without any additives. From our previous studies [24,25], we know that the nanostructured CaCO 3 powder is very pure, thermodynamically stable and has welldeveloped specific surface area [24]. In this study, we intended to check whether the aggregation process of nanoparticle can be controlled by mixing conditions in the rotating disc precipitation reactor and the initial calcium hydroxide suspension content.…”

“…To better explain the mechanism of nanoparticles agglomeration in the reactor, we extended our previous precipitation reaction model [25] and applied it for the simulation of aggregates' formation during the reaction in the rotating disc precipitation reactor. The model has taken into account not only kinetics of the multiphase reaction and crystal growth rate but also nanoparticles' agglomeration.…”

In the present experiments, the carbonation process in multiphase system was carried out using the reactor with rotating discs. Calcite was produced by controlled fast precipitation through gaseous CO 2 adsorption in Ca(OH) 2 slurry. Furthermore, the reaction kinetics' were controlled by disc's revolution speed in the range from 80 rpm through 120 to 160 rpm. Initial concentration of the slurry ranged between 54 and 110 mM L -1 . The aggregates of crystals precipitated in the aqueous solution were of sub-micrometric size. Dynamic light scattering method showed that mean aggregate diameter decreased with the higher mixing rate as long as the mixing condition was homogenous (up to 160 rpm). Thermogravimetric analysis revealed that the surface of calcite was polluted by unwanted, different compounds amount of which depends on the initial concentration of the slurry. Therefore, in order to obtain chemically pure calcite, CaCO 3 powder was heated up in the laboratory oven. In order to explain the mechanism of calcite particles' aggregation, the simulation of the aggregates formation has been performed based on the new model taking into account kinetics of the multiphase reaction, crystal growth and their agglomeration. The obtained data on crystal morphology during the precipitation process have been compared with the model simulation results. The internally consistent model very well describes both the formation and the aggregation of the calcite nanoparticles, and the same can be used and recommended for accurate calculations of the particle and aggregates' sizes as well as their distribution in the reactor.

In this paper, a spinning disk reactor (SDR) was applied and tested successfully for precipitated calcium particle synthesis. The proposed SDR reactor consists of a spinning disk rotating at 4,000-16,000 rpm. The proposed SDR resulted in high local supersaturation due to the intense energy dissipation produced by a high-speed spinning disk. The higher rotational speed of SDR results in the production of calcium carbonate nanoparticles with smaller mean particle sizes and higher aragonite content. At the rotating speed of 15,000 rpm, precipitated calcium carbonate nanoparticles with a size of around 975 nm were produced. In addition, aragonite content increased from 10 wt% to 95 wt% by increasing disk speed from 4,000 rpm to 15,000 rpm.
