Carbon Cycle's gypsum purification process cleans up radioactive
The new process takes waste gypsum or chalk and purifies it so that it can be used as high-grade white filler in plasterboard and cement. Firstly, impure gypsum is placed into a solution of ammonium sulfate around 90–100°C, together they form a complex. This complex sinks into the solution, releasing any impurities in the gypsum.
