Flat Glass Manufacturing Process | AGC Inc.

Limestone (calcium carbonate) Limestone, also called calcium carbonate (CaCO3), is another compound added to glass. Pure limestone is a white powder that is poorly soluble in water. Limestone is added to glass because it helps stabilize glass. Thus, it increases the durability of glass to prevent it from breaking down. Waste recycled glass

11.17 Lime Manufacturing

Although limestone deposits are found in every state, only a small portion is pure enough for industrial lime manufacturing. To be classified as limestone, the rock must contain at least 50 percent calcium carbonate. When the rock contains 30 to 45 percent magnesium carbonate, it is referred to as dolomite, or dolomitic limestone. Lime can also be
