Abstract
Analysis of Optimum Temperature and Calcination Time in the Production of CaO Using Seashells Waste as CaCO<sub>3</sub> Source
Highlights
Seashells waste is considered to be abundant in coastal area, especially in the location where most of the population works in fisheries (Kurniawan and Imron, 2019a; Morris et al, 2019)
Another research mentions that seashells consist of 98% calcium carbonate, and when calcined above 700oC, it turns into calcium oxide (CaO) (Sirisomboonchai et al, 2015)
Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis of calcined seashells with variations in time (2–4 hours) and temperature (800–1000°C) produced a similar spectrum (2513.25 cm-1) which belongs to the characteristic of the peaks of the C-H group containing calcium oxide (CaO)
Summary
Seashells waste is considered to be abundant in coastal area, especially in the location where most of the population works in fisheries (Kurniawan and Imron, 2019a; Morris et al, 2019). Seashells waste can be converted into useful and economically viable products (Imron et al, 2020; Kurniawan and Imron, 2019b; Mo et al, 2018). The conversion of seashell waste into new minerals for sustainable cementitious materials is a substitute and additional mineral fillers in cement has been proven to be suitable (Morris et al, 2019; Wang et al, 2019; Wulandari et al, 2021). Seashell waste can become a support material for the photocatalytic synthesis process (Kurniawan et al, 2020; Wang et al, 2020). There is a high Ca content in the seashell waste as a source of CO2 absorption (Huang et al, 2018)
