  2. Calcium supplement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcium_supplement

    Calcium lactate has similar absorption as calcium carbonate, [42] but is more expensive. [41] [26] Unlike calcium carbonate, calcium lactate can be absorbed at various pHs, thus it does not need to be taken with food. [26] Calcium lactate is a less concentrated forms of calcium than calcium carbonate. [41] Calcium lactate contains 13% elemental ...

  3. Marine biogenic calcification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marine_biogenic_calcification

    The formation of biogenic calcium carbonate by marine calcifiers is one way to add ballast to sinking particles and enhance transport of carbon to the deep ocean and seafloor. [46] The calcium carbonate counter pump refers to the biological process of precipitation of carbonate and the sinking of particulate inorganic carbon. [47]

  4. Calcium carbonate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcium_carbonate

    Calcium carbonate is used in the production of calcium oxide as well as toothpaste and has seen a resurgence as a food preservative and color retainer, when used in or with products such as organic apples. [58] Calcium carbonate is used therapeutically as phosphate binder in patients on maintenance haemodialysis. It is the most common form of ...

  5. Microbiologically induced calcite precipitation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microbiologically_induced...

    Microbiologically induced calcium carbonate precipitation (MICP) is a bio-geochemical process that induces calcium carbonate precipitation within the soil matrix. [1] Biomineralization in the form of calcium carbonate precipitation can be traced back to the Precambrian period. [ 2 ]

  6. Carbonatation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbonatation

    The carbonatation process is used in the production of sugar from sugar beets.It involves the introduction of limewater (milk of lime - calcium hydroxide suspension) and carbon dioxide enriched gas into the "raw juice" (the sugar rich liquid prepared from the diffusion stage of the process) to form calcium carbonate and precipitate impurities that are then removed.

  7. Calcium in biology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcium_in_biology

    The most striking use of Ca 2+ ions as a structural element in algae occurs in the marine coccolithophores, which use Ca 2+ to form the calcium carbonate plates, with which they are covered. Calcium is needed to form the pectin in the middle lamella of newly formed cells. Calcium is needed to stabilize the permeability of cell membranes.

  8. Calcium cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcium_cycle

    The calcium cycle is a transfer of calcium between dissolved and solid phases. There is a continuous supply of calcium ions into waterways from rocks, organisms, and soils. [1] [2] Calcium ions are consumed and removed from aqueous environments as they react to form insoluble structures such as calcium carbonate and calcium silicate, [1] [3] which can deposit to form sediments or the ...
