Flue gas desulfurization chemistry studies: limestone
The grinding results, expressed as a grindability index, ranged in values from 2 to 15. This represents a sevenfold range in the relative difficulties to grind for the limestones tested. From the petrographic analysis results, a strong correlation was found between the grindability and the fraction of macrocrystalline (gt; 5 ..mu..m) carbonate minerals present in the limestone.
