摘要
The oyster shell is a valuable calcium resource; however, its application is limited by its high NaCl content. Therefore, to establish the use of oyster shells as a viable resource, conditional experiments were conducted to select optimum parameters for NaCl removal. For this purpose, we compared leaching methods with batch and sequential procedures, determined the volume of water used for washing, and evaluated the mixing speed. The batch system removed NaCl when washed for >24 h over a shell to water ratio of 1:5. Results from the batch experiments confirmed that washing twice can completely remove NaCl from the shells on a like-for-like basis. Additionally, the efficiency of washing was sequentially evaluated in terms of the number of washing cycles. Compared to batch experiments, continuous washing could remove NaCl in approximately 10 min at a shell to water ratio of 1:4. We found that regardless of the washing methods, the volume of water used for washing is key for enhancing NaCl removal. Consequently, increasing the volume of water used for washing coupled with a proper sorting of fine particles can help enhance the purity of calcium, which will enable the use of oyster shell as an alternate Ca-resource.
