Desulfurisation gypsum is an industrial by-product obtained from the desulfurisation and purification of coal-fired flue gas. It is produced by grinding quicklime or limestone and reacting it with sulphur dioxide in the flue gas to form calcium sulfate dihydrate with fine particles, high water content and a large specific gravity. Its fineness generally ranges from […]
