1. Introduction of Calcium Carbonate
Calcium carbonate, or CaCO3, is found throughout the world and is one of the most commonly occurring minerals. In its natural form, it appears as chalk, limestone, and marble. Although all three forms are identical in chemical terms, they differ in many other respects, including purity, whiteness, thickness and homogeneity. It is also the main component of animal bones or shells.Calcium carbonate is one of the most useful and versatile materials known to man and wet and dry grinding methods are used in processing it for industrial applications.

2. Applications of Calcium Carbonate
Paper, Plastics, Paints, and Coatings:
Calcium carbonate is the most widely used mineral in the paper, plastics, paints and coatings industries both as filler and as a coating pigment. In the paper industry, it is used as an inexpensive filler and is greatly valued for its high brightness and light scattering characteristics. In the paints industry, it is used widely used an extender and can represent as much as 30% by weight in paints. It is also one of the widest used substances in the production of master batches for the plastic industry. It also is used as a filler in adhesives, and sealants.
Personal Health and Food Production:
Calcium carbonate is used widely as an effective dietary calcium supplement, antacid, phosphate binder, or base material for medicinal tablets. It also is found in many grocery products such as baking powder, toothpaste, dry-mix dessert mixes, dough, and wine. Calcium carbonate is the active ingredient in agricultural lime, and is used in animal feed as well as water and waste treatment.
Building Materials and Construction:
Calcium carbonate is used both as a building material in the form of marble and as an ingredient of cement. It contributes to the making of mortar used in bonding bricks, concrete blocks, stones, roofing shingles, rubber compounds, and tiles. Calcium carbonate decomposes to form carbon dioxide and lime, an important material in making steel, glass, and paper. Because of its antacid properties, calcium carbonate is used in industrial settings to neutralize acidic conditions in both soil and water.
