| Summary: | The physicochemical properties of ‘dolomitic’ sorbents formed through the partial decomposition of dolomite have been discussed in two papers published previously dealing with the influence of temperature and the time of heating. When carried out at 800°C, the newly formed solid consisted of spongelike calcite and finely powdered magnesium oxide which was resistant mechanically and exhibited considerably greater porosity than the raw material. Long-term heating led to a decrease in the porosity and to the partial elimination of pores. The corresponding ‘dolomitic’ sorbents prepared in an inert atmosphere showed even greater porosity and a different internal structure when compared to those formed in the presence of carbon dioxide. However, no changes were observed as far as the chemical composition was concerned. |
