摘要
The main aim of this work is to study the possibility of using different Emirati limestones for the production of quicklime. Representative limestone samples have been collected to represent the Triassic, Jurassic, Cretaceous, Eocene and Oligocene ages. The limestone samples have been characterized for their microstructure, mineral and chemical composition, physico-mechanical characteristics, thermal behavior using polarizing and scanning microscopes together with X-ray micro-tomography, XRD-IR, XRF, Archimedes and Mercury intrusion methods and DTA-TGA, respectively. Post characterization, the samples were fired in electrical muffle furnace for calcination under the firing conditions (800℃ to 1100℃) for (0.25 – 2 h). Then the lime grains have been characterized for their hydration rate, free lime content, pore-distribution and microfabric.
