Abstract

See full text

The process for preparing calcium sulfate anhydrite II by heating a flowable powder of flue gas gypsum moistened with less than 20% by weight, and preferably with from 7 to 17% by weight, of diluted sulfuric acid, wherein the sulfuric acid content is from 0.5 to 7% by weight, and preferably 1 to 3% by weight of sulfuric acid, based on the total mixture, is carried out by that the total mixture is direct-fired or is rapidly heated with indirect heat exchangers having relatively high wall temperatures whereby it is heated at temperatures of from 80.degree. C. to 190.degree. C. and releases the water adherent from the diluted sulfuric acid as well as two moles of water of crystallization, and then the virtually anhydrous product is annealed at temperatures of from 80.degree. C. to 190.degree. C. for 0.3 to 24 hours.
