INFLUENCE OF PURIFICATION PROCESS ON THE CHARACTERISTICS OF ROMANIAN CALCIUM BENTONITE
A calcium bentonite from Orasu Nou deposit (Romania) was used as raw material. The natural bentonite provided by S.C. Bentonita S.A., Satu Mare has the following mineralogical composition: 57 % montmorillonite, 40 % cristobalite, and 3 % quartz. Due to the relatively high percentage of impurities i...
