Chemical and Morphological Analysis of Calcium Oxide (CaO) Powder from Sea Urchin (Diadema setosum) Shell

Abstract:

Calcium carbonate (CaCO₃) has been taken from sea urchin (Diadema setosum) shell and calcinated at several temperatures to obtain calcium oxide (CaO). X-Ray Fluorescence Spectroscopy (XRF) revealed that the powder from this shell had a high Ca level, which increased at a higher temperature. Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) spectra agreed to an increase in Ca level that showed the presence of CaO at 900 °C and 1100 °C; otherwise, CaCO₃ disappeared. Using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), the powder morphology was more homogeneous at 900 °C and 1100 °C than at lower temperatures. This morphology was encouraged by decreasing particle size, indicating compound decomposition in the powder and Ca leaved. This decomposition was confirmed by an Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDS) analysis that showed increased Ca content with higher mass and atomic level at a higher temperature.
