Book excerpt: This report presents a cost analysis of Precipitated Calcium Carbonate (PCC) production from limestone. In this typical process, limestone is first calcinated. The product reacts with water producing calcium hydroxide, which is further carbonated with carbon dioxide from calcination to produce PCC. This report was developed based essentially on the following reference(s): (1) US Patent 6251356, issued to G. R. International in 2001 (assigned to Pacific Nano Products in 2015) (2) US Patent 3920800, issued to Cyprus Mines Corporation in 1975 Keywords: Calcite, Aragonite, Calcine, Hydrated Lime, Slaked Lime
