Based on the XRF analysis shown in the table, the purity of calcium formate is about 99% in case of using precipitated calcium carbonate or paper sludge; the sum of non-calcium oxide residues was ≤ 1%. This is in accordance with the EDX results shown above where only peaks for Ca, C, and O atoms were observed.

Calcium carbonate provides good optical properties to graphic paper and is relatively inexpensive. Therefore, the use of calcium carbonate for the production of paper has steadily increased.
