What is synthetic gypsum? While natural gypsum has been mined and manufactured for centuries, the process of manufacturing synthetic gypsum has only been available for the last few decades.
Synthetic gypsum is created as a by-product of industrial processing. It is composed of calcium sulfate dihydrate, has the same characteristics as natural gypsum, and is a high-quality and environmentally friendly product.
Synthetic gypsum is the name used to classify a variety of gypsum by-products. The most common gypsum by-product is FGD gypsum. When referencing synthetic gypsum, most people are likely referring to FGD gypsum.
FGD gypsum is formed when fossil-fueled power plants utilize flue gas desulfurization systems to remove sulfur dioxide from gas pollutants.
Synthetic gypsum is used interchangeably with natural gypsum in a number of applications. Examples of products that utilize synthetic gypsum include:
♦ Cement
♦ Drywall
♦ Glass Manufacturing
♦ Plaster
♦ Soil Amendments
