Thermal decomposition kinetics of limestone with different particle sizes in an air atmosphere
Background
The thermal decomposition kinetics of limestone under air atmosphere, particularly its particle-size-dependent mechanisms, remain poorly understood despite their relevance to emerging fine-particle calcination technologies.
Methods
This study systematically investigated the decomposition behavior of limestone samples with particle sizes below 300 μm in the air using thermogravimetric analysis combined with multiple kinetic modeling methods.
Significant Findings
Results demonstrated significant particle size dependence in decomposition behavior. Compared to particles above 75 μm, smaller than 75 μm decomposed faster but exhibited a 84–136 °C higher decomposition onset temperature. Activation energy analysis revealed consistent values (191–204 kJ/mol) across particle sizes, eliminating energetic factors as the origin of behavioral differences. Kinetic modeling revealed that differences in decomposition arise from distinct mechanisms. Particles below 75 μm mainly underwent surface nucleation and growth, following the Avrami-Erofeev nucleation and growth model (A1.5). In comparison, particles above 75 μm were governed by CO2 diffusion and followed the shrinking sphere model (R3). Therefore, 75 μm was identified as the critical particle size for the transition of kinetic mechanisms under thermogravimetric analysis conditions.
