‘Tarate the filtrate with N/10 FIC using Bromoeresol green indicator
1 Blue colour turns to yellow.
Calculation
% Bree Lime (CaO F) = TV x 0.373
where TV = Titrate Value
RAW MEAL RESIDUE ON 90 MICRON SIEVE BY
WET SIEVING
Take a known quantity of sample and sieve through 90 micron
Rinse the residue in the sieve with tap water unt the material stops
passing through the sieve
Dry the residue and weigh it
Caleutation
Weight of residue’ 100
Percentage Residue = Weight of sample taken
SIEVE ANALYSIS OF CRUSHED LIME STONE
Take a known quantity of erushed Lime Stone sample from the
Vibrating Screen discharge point and
Sieve through 25 mm sieve,
Caleulation
Weight of passing material x 100
Percentage passing = Weight of sample taken
FLUORSPAR TESTING PROCEDURE, ( Ca >)
‘Take | gm of dry sample, add about 20 ml, of 25% Glacial Acetic
acid and boil for approx. $ minutes
Filter though No. 40 filer paper wash the residve weigh and ignite
in platinum erucible at 800°C
Record the weight afer ignition and calculate CaCO, by subtracting
the weight difference From 100,
‘Add 10 to 15 drops of HF acid to the erucible, dry and ignite at 800°
C and record the weight
Determine the weight difference before and after HE acd treatment
Calculate SiO, by multiplying the weight difference with 100,
Ad approx. 10 ml, of 1:1 HCL into the ervcible to dissolve, transfor

Dry the contents and ald 50 ml of 1:1 HaS0y ard again dyTake 100ml, ofthis solution in a 250 mil, beaker ard boil ,add approx. | gm, of NH
‘of Methyl red indicator and NHyOH drop by drop to the boiling
solution tll the colour changes,
Cool the solution and filter thought No-4 filter paper, wash, place
the Filter pape withthe residue ina ercibe, weigh, roord the
sreght and then ignite at 800°C for 30 o 40 minutes
Weigh the erucible and record the weight
Calculate % 0, by multiplying the weight difference with 250.
