Chemical of the Week -- Lime
Chemical of the Week
LIME: CALCIUM OXIDE -- CaO
Calcium oxide is a white crystalline solid with a melting point of 2572°C. It is manufactured by heating limestone, coral, sea shells, or chalk, which are mainly CaCO3, to drive off carbon dioxide.
500–600°C
CaCO3(s)
--
CaO(s) + CO2(g)
This reaction is reversible; calcium oxide will react with carbon dioxide to form calcium carbonate. The reaction is driven to the right by flushing carbon dioxide from the mixture as it is released.
The production of calcium oxide from limestone is one of the oldest chemical transformations produced by man. Its use predates recorded history. Most ancient languages have a word for calcium oxide. In Latin it is calx, from which the name of the element calcium is taken. In Old English, its name is lïm, which is the origin of the modern commercial name for calcium oxide, namely lime. The abundance of limestone in the Earth's crust and the ease of its transformation to calcium oxide do not alone explain why the lime is one of the oldest products of chemistry. Lime has many properties that make it quite valuable. It is so useful, that it is today produced industrially on a vast scale; over 20 million metric tons were produced in the U.S. in 2000.
The oldest uses of lime exploit its ability to react with carbon dioxide to regenerate calcium carbonate. When lime is mixed with water and sand, the result is mortar, which is used in construction to secure bricks, blocks, and stones together. Mortar is initially a stiff paste that is laid between the bricks. It gradually hardens, cementing the bricks together. At room temperature, the reaction of lime with carbon dioxide is very slow. It is speeded by mixing lime with water. When lime is mixed with water, it forms calcium hydroxide, called slaked lime.
CaO(s) + H2O(l)
--
Ca(OH)2(s)
The reaction of calcium hydroxide with carbon dioxide is faster, producing a mortar that hardens more quickly.
Ca(OH)2(s) + CO2(g)
--
CaCO3(s) + H2O(l)
Even with the increased reaction speed, mortar requires many years for complete reaction to occur. Other lime&endash;based products used in the construction industry include lime plaster and portland cement.
Perhaps the most commercially important property of lime is its ability to form solutions with silicates. When lime is heated with silica sand (SiO2) and sodium carbonate (Na2CO3), a solution is formed that does not crystallize when it is cooled. Instead it hardens to an amorphous, clear, and nearly colorless solid, namely glass. Because it is a mixture and not a pure compound, glass does not have a distinct melting point; it gradually softens as it is heated. Therefore, it can be molded and blown into many useful shapes. The production of glass from lime is another of the ancient uses of lime.
The most important modern use of lime also relies on its ability to form solutions with silicates. Nearly 45% of lime is used in the steel industry. Steel and iron are produced from ores, which are rocks that contain iron oxides. Many of these ores also contain a large amount of silicates. When lime is mixed with the ore and the mixture melted, these silicates combine with the lime, forming a liquid solution called slag. Slag is immiscible with molten iron, so the silicates can be removed from the iron by draining o the slag. Approximately 80 kg of lime is used in the production of each metric ton (1000 kg) of iron. Lime is also used in the production of other metals. For example, it is used to remove silicates from alumina (Al2O3) before the alumina is reduced to aluminum metal.
Lime is also an important material in the manufacture of chemicals. Its major use here is in the production of calcium carbide, CaC2. Calcium carbide is manufactured by heating lime with coke.
2 CaO(s) + 5 C(s)
--
2 CaC2(s) + CO2(g)
Calcium carbide reacts with water, releasing acetylene, C2H2.
CaC2(s) + 2 H2O(l)
--
C2H2(g) + Ca(OH)2(aq)
Acetylene is an important fuel for welding and is also a starting material for a range of organic compounds, including vinyl chloride, neoprene, and acrylonitrile, all of which are raw materials for polymers.
Pollution control is a rapidly expanding consumer of lime. Lime is used in stack gas scrubbers to reduce sulfur dioxide emissions from power plants. Sulfur dioxide reacts with lime to form solid calcium sulfite.
SO2(g) + CaO(s)
--
CaSO3(s)
Lime is also added to sewage to remove phosphates.
3 CaO(s) + 3 H2O(l) + 2 PO43–(aq)
--
Ca3(PO4)2(s) + 6 OH–(aq)
The pretreatment of water supplies involves the use lime to decrease the acidity, to soften, and to clear drinking water.
A variety of other industrial processes also make extensive use of lime. It is used as an opacifier in plastics. The paper industry uses it in pulping wood; because lime is highly alkaline, it dissolves the lignin that binds the fibers together in wood. In the refining of sugar, lime causes coagulation of plant material, allowing it to be more easily separated from the sugar syrup.
Calcium oxide no longer produces the limelight in theaters. The theatrical use of lime has disappeared, leaving only its name, suggesting the romance of a bygone era. Because lime has a very high melting point, it can be heated to a very high temperature without melting. Substances with such high melting points can be heated to white heat, a temperature so high that the light they emit is white. Before the advent of electric lighting, white stage lighting was produced by heating lime in the flame of a torch, and this light was called limelight.

What is a Key lime?
Key limes are also known as Mexican lime and West Indies lime. Cultivated for thousands of years in the Indo-Malayan region, this variety has long been treasured for its fruit and decorative foliage.
The Key lime made its way to North Africa and the Near East via Arabian traders, and then carried on to Palestine and Mediterranean Europe by the Crusaders. Columbus is credited with bringing the Key lime to Hispaniola (now known as Haiti), where it was carried on by Spanish settlers to Florida.
It flourished in South Florida, particularly the Florida Keys, hence the current common name of Key lime. Due to hurricane-depleted soils, locals switched from pineapple commercial crops to limes in 1906, and business boomed until a hurricane once again reared and wiped out the lime groves, never to be restored. Today, most Key limes come from Mexico.
Key limes are much smaller (ping-pong to golfball-sized) than Persian limes, nearly spherical, thin-skinned, and often contain a few seeds. Green key limes are actually immature fruits, prized for their acidity. As they ripen to a yellow color, the acid content diminishes greatly, resulting in a sweeter fruit.
Fresh Key lime is preferred for flavoring of fish and meats, marinades, making limeade, and garnishing drinks and plates due to its tantalizing bouquet and unique flavor.
The juice is used for syrups, sauces, preserves, and of course, Key Lime Pie. Alas, most commercially available Key lime pies these days are made from the frozen concentrate of the Persian lime, not the Key lime.
The Key lime is more difficult to find outside of Florida and California markets, and may be available only seasonally and/or in gourmet markets. However, many large grocery chains now carry bottled Key lime juice in the canned fruit aisle near bottled lemon juice.

Lime is an important chemical with numerous chemical, industrial, and environmental uses in the United States. It was primarily a construction commodity until the rapid growth of the chemical process industries at the beginning of the 20th century. At the beginning of the 20th century, more than 80% of the lime consumed in the United States went for construction uses, but currently more than 90% is being consumed for chemical and industrial uses.

Bounce Competition - First Place - We Have a Winner
It took us some time to decide on the winners of the Bounce Competition, LIME organized in association with our friends at California Sunbounce. There were so many good entries that it made judging pretty difficult. We think it’s great that so many of you made the effort to go out and make a video about how you bounce. It’s this kind of sharing that makes us all better photographers. Thanks to all those who entered.
And now we will finally reveal the winner … drum rolls …
1st Place - Bounceman by Appleblue
There was no discussion when it came to choosing the winner of the competition. The decision was unanimous. We found this video well made and very funny. But most important is that the humor makes you almost not realize that you are learning valuable lighting techniques while you are laughing. And because you don’t mind watching it again and show it to your friends you will learn more than you would think.
When we started this, we never even dreamed of a winner like this. We’ll get in touch with you about the time you’ll be spending with Mike Larson.
A big thanks to all who entered this competition. Each and every one of you made the world a better place by sharing your knowledge and bringing smiles to faces of thousands of photographers around the world. Thx!

3th Place - The Cloud Bouncer by Steven and his Family
If our 3rd place winner was a team effort, our 2nd place winner is the living proof that good old family businesses are still a great way to do things in the 21st century. This family did it all by themselves: making a light modifier, shooting and editing video, music … we are even pretty sure that Steven made the models himself.
Too be honest, none of us thought much of the Cloud Bouncer when we saw it appear for the first time in the video. But the pictures proved us wrong. We saw some amazing and atypical children portraits.
Congratulations, you won a personal workshop with Pieter and Bert and you get to choose the topic yourself (better pick a subject that we know something about). Just make sure you bring the Cloud Bouncer.

3th Place - LIME Bounce Competition by Guy Van den Eynde & Friends
We saw some inventive use of light and modifiers, we also saw some good pictures (some less good ones too, to be honest) but the main reason this video appealed to all of us is that it’s clearly a team effort. We highly recommend to work together with other photographers and creative people. Do like these guys and gather a group of friends for what seems to be a pretty long day of photography. You can share equipment, knowledge and … fun.
Guy, you’ll have to get your team back together and go out for an other day of shooting, this time with the California Sunbounce Mini.

4th Place - Bouncing Light in NYC by Guy With Camera
This is real life photography. Most of us don’t have tons of equipment, assistants and permits for cool locations. But in this video it becomes clear that all that doesn’t have to stop you from making great pictures. GWC uses his knowledge and the creative use of limited equipment to produce some excellent pictures. The “crotch bounce” sealed the deal.
Congratz Man-With-Camera, you just added a California Sunbounce Micro-Mini to your gear.

Blame It On Me
December 9th, 2010 at 2:59pm
LIME has been dead for ages and it will stay dead but not until I resurrect it for a couple of last blog posts. That’s the least I owe to all you faithful and patient LIME supporters and to Pieter, who’s been the best companion on this incredible journey.
After about a year of doing LIME we found it increasingly harder and harder to keep coming up with new stuff and when we had ideas, we just didn’t have the time and energy to make them work. We might also have put way too much on our plates anyway.
This year started out with a huge change in my personal life. Out of the blue I got hit by the biggest metaphorical truck you’ve ever seen. The people who follow my personal blog know what I’m talking about.
For months I couldn’t get myself to enjoy photography anymore, let alone share my passion for images. The passion is returning faster and faster but at the same time my new situation comes with rearranged priorities. All these changes and responsibilities kept my head spinning out of control. I feel I’m finally regaining control. Still not there but there’s a 580EX at the end of the tunnel.
I’m not looking for excuses, it’s the way things went. I tried … hard … as hard as I could … many times … to keep up with all my obligations. But I just couldn’t get it done. I still feel responsible for letting people down and for not being able to keep my promises. There’s not much I can do about it except for tying up the loose ends and keep doing whatever I can to make others Learn, Motivate, Inspire and Experience through other channels.
Practically this means that from today on we’ll reveal the other winners of the LIME Bounce Competition, one each day. And this time it’s for real, I wrote all the blog posts and scheduled them. And then there’s some stuff that’s still on the dusty LIME shelves that’s as good as ready to publish.
To those who still need to get an answer from me, have a bit more patience. With the help of some friends I’m slowly but steadily getting rid of the backlog.
I’d really like to thank Pieter for doing this together, for pushing me to go on when LIME started to get a bit heavy on my shoulders and for forgetting about LIME when more important things almost crushed my shoulders.
So that’s it for my Mea Culpa. I hope you still had a blast with LIME just like we did? Pieter and I won’t retreat to a hut in the middle of a dessert. We’ll still be sharing stuff alone, with others or together. And maybe we can arrange to do one last podcast …

Guest Post - Better Pictures by Shooting Less (by Konrad Dwojak)
May 9th, 2010 at 6:59pm
LIME is still a two-man-band. Two people can create quite some music together but the amount of performances and their style are limited. To offer a bigger variety of articles, views and techniques we want to start working with guest contributors on LIME. If you have something that might be suited for LIME, please contact is.
We’ll start this series with an article by Konrad Dwojak. Konrad is a young talented and motivated photographer who wrote an article on his way to improve his pictures. Here it is:
Better Pictures by Shooting Less (article by Konrad Dwojak)
I was looking over some of my older photography gear few weeks ago and obviously I ran across my old film cameras and old memory cards from my first digital cameras. I started to recall the times of film photography and compare it with the experience of the digital world.
It took me awhile (being so deep in digital cameras nowadays) to realize that film cameras limited me by certain number of pictures a photographic film roll could contain (not like digital cameras, which can take from few hundred to few thousand RAW pictures, depending on the capacity of a memory card). The limitation of a number of ‘exposures’ (in photographic jargon of course) in film cameras forced me to spend some time and think about a composition of a picture, how to frame a subject, inspect closely foreground, background, double check the lighting and any other details that could improve a picture so that no film would be wasted. This limitation of a film camera was (and for someone who uses a film camera still is) a very important step in the learning process of the art of photography and I personally believe that it still should be a part of the learning process of photography.
I think that digital cameras with their huge memory cards give us the freedom that actually does more harm than good for those who want to learn photography – we don’t take that extra time and effort on checking a composition of a picture like in a film camera because we know that we can re-take a picture countless times and delete easily ‘bad’ pictures without any financial costs (as it wasn’t the case in the photographic film roll era).
I think I have found a solution for those who own only digital cameras and who want to learn composition in a way it was done before. The solution is quite simple: next time you will go for a photo walk, do an assignment for yourself or just take pictures, leave your 8 or 16 GB memory card at home and take with you only one memory card of 1GB or even less (the less capacity, the better; I just checked that 1GB for shooting 12.1 MP RAW will give you about 68 exposures). Depending if you shoot RAW or JPEG and how many megapixels your camera has, you should find a memory card that enables you to take not more than 30 exposures. And remember to leave all other memory cards at home! This way you will limit your gear but you will definitely expand your knowledge and experience in composition!
I strongly encourage you to try it out few times and I guarantee that you will see improvement in your photography soon.
Happy Shooting!!!
——–
At LIME we believe in offering a platform to views and opinion by photographers we respect. It’s even possible that we don’t agree with some of the views of our guest contributors but we do respect every opinion.

Bounce Competition - 5th Place
May 9th, 2010 at 6:16pm
It took us some time to decide on the winners of the Bounce Competition, LIME organized in association with our friends at California Sunbounce. There were so many good entries that it made judging pretty difficult. We think it’s great that so many of you made the effort to go out and make a video about how you bounce. It’s this kind of sharing that makes us all better photographers. Thanks to all those who entered.
5th Place - Using Bounce as your Main Light and Fill Light by Jesus Esquivel
View on YouTube
We like the simple setups that Jesus shows us in his video. It may seem like nothing incredibly spectacular, but often it’s the simple setups that get you the best results. Jesus created some spectacular pictures because he really masters the setups he uses. It’s not enough to “kind of” know what you are doing. The devil is in the detail. Congrats Jesus! we’ll be in touch with you so we can send you the California Sunbounce Sun-Mover you won.
So that’s it then, 5th place of the competition? Not quiet, we had two candidates for this spot. Both had their supporters amongst the judges. In the end we couldn’t decide so we kindly asked the guys at Sunbounce if they would mind giving away TWO Sun-Movers.
the Other 5th Place - How We Bounce by Jay Scott
View on YouTube
To be very honest, we were not too impressed with the pictures Jay and his friend made. Judging by his website, Jay certainly has more in him than he shows in the video. But we still found his entry very inspirational. Being in a wheelchair certainly throws some challenges at Jay but with some creative outside the box thinking, he finds solutions. It’s a lesson for all of us. Lighting on location always comes with some surprises. And a good photographer always can make it work with what he has available. Keep up the good work Jay, we’ll be in touch with you.
Fourth place will be announced in a couple of days, so keep coming back!

And now we will finally reveal the winner … drum rolls …
1st Place - Bounceman by Appleblue
There was no discussion when it came to choosing the winner of the competition. The decision was unanimous. We found this video well made and very funny. But most important is that the humor makes you almost not realize that you are learning valuable lighting techniques while you are laughing. And because you don’t mind watching it again and show it to your friends you will learn more than you would think.
When we started this, we never even dreamed of a winner like this. We’ll get in touch with you about the time you’ll be spending with Mike Larson.
A big thanks to all who entered this competition. Each and every one of you made the world a better place by sharing your knowledge and bringing smiles to faces of thousands of photographers around the world. Thx!

Bounce Competition - 2th Place
December 11th, 2010 at 10:00am
It took us some time to decide on the winners of the Bounce Competition, LIME organized in association with our friends at California Sunbounce. There were so many good entries that it made judging pretty difficult. We think it’s great that so many of you made the effort to go out and make a video about how you bounce. It’s this kind of sharing that makes us all better photographers. Thanks to all those who entered.
3th Place - The Cloud Bouncer by Steven and his Family
If our 3rd place winner was a team effort, our 2nd place winner is the living proof that good old family businesses are still a great way to do things in the 21st century. This family did it all by themselves: making a light modifier, shooting and editing video, music … we are even pretty sure that Steven made the models himself.
Too be honest, none of us thought much of the Cloud Bouncer when we saw it appear for the first time in the video. But the pictures proved us wrong. We saw some amazing and atypical children portraits.
Congratulations, you won a personal workshop with Pieter and Bert and you get to choose the topic yourself (better pick a subject that we know something about). Just make sure you bring the Cloud Bouncer.

3th Place - LIME Bounce Competition by Guy Van den Eynde & Friends
We saw some inventive use of light and modifiers, we also saw some good pictures (some less good ones too, to be honest) but the main reason this video appealed to all of us is that it’s clearly a team effort. We highly recommend to work together with other photographers and creative people. Do like these guys and gather a group of friends for what seems to be a pretty long day of photography. You can share equipment, knowledge and … fun.
Guy, you’ll have to get your team back together and go out for an other day of shooting, this time with the California Sunbounce Mini.

4th Place - Bouncing Light in NYC by Guy With Camera
This is real life photography. Most of us don’t have tons of equipment, assistants and permits for cool locations. But in this video it becomes clear that all that doesn’t have to stop you from making great pictures. GWC uses his knowledge and the creative use of limited equipment to produce some excellent pictures. The “crotch bounce” sealed the deal.
Congratz Man-With-Camera, you just added a California Sunbounce Micro-Mini to your gear.

Blame It On Me
December 9th, 2010 at 2:59pm
LIME has been dead for ages and it will stay dead but not until I resurrect it for a couple of last blog posts. That’s the least I owe to all you faithful and patient LIME supporters and to Pieter, who’s been the best companion on this incredible journey.
After about a year of doing LIME we found it increasingly harder and harder to keep coming up with new stuff and when we had ideas, we just didn’t have the time and energy to make them work. We might also have put way too much on our plates anyway.
This year started out with a huge change in my personal life. Out of the blue I got hit by the biggest metaphorical truck you’ve ever seen. The people who follow my personal blog know what I’m talking about.
For months I couldn’t get myself to enjoy photography anymore, let alone share my passion for images. The passion is returning faster and faster but at the same time my new situation comes with rearranged priorities. All these changes and responsibilities kept my head spinning out of control. I feel I’m finally regaining control. Still not there but there’s a 580EX at the end of the tunnel.
I’m not looking for excuses, it’s the way things went. I tried … hard … as hard as I could … many times … to keep up with all my obligations. But I just couldn’t get it done. I still feel responsible for letting people down and for not being able to keep my promises. There’s not much I can do about it except for tying up the loose ends and keep doing whatever I can to make others Learn, Motivate, Inspire and Experience through other channels.
Practically this means that from today on we’ll reveal the other winners of the LIME Bounce Competition, one each day. And this time it’s for real, I wrote all the blog posts and scheduled them. And then there’s some stuff that’s still on the dusty LIME shelves that’s as good as ready to publish.
To those who still need to get an answer from me, have a bit more patience. With the help of some friends I’m slowly but steadily getting rid of the backlog.
I’d really like to thank Pieter for doing this together, for pushing me to go on when LIME started to get a bit heavy on my shoulders and for forgetting about LIME when more important things almost crushed my shoulders.
So that’s it for my Mea Culpa. I hope you still had a blast with LIME just like we did? Pieter and I won’t retreat to a hut in the middle of a dessert. We’ll still be sharing stuff alone, with others or together. And maybe we can arrange to do one last podcast …

Guest Post - Better Pictures by Shooting Less (by Konrad Dwojak)
May 9th, 2010 at 6:59pm
LIME is still a two-man-band. Two people can create quite some music together but the amount of performances and their style are limited. To offer a bigger variety of articles, views and techniques we want to start working with guest contributors on LIME. If you have something that might be suited for LIME, please contact is.
We’ll start this series with an article by Konrad Dwojak. Konrad is a young talented and motivated photographer who wrote an article on his way to improve his pictures. Here it is:
Better Pictures by Shooting Less (article by Konrad Dwojak)
I was looking over some of my older photography gear few weeks ago and obviously I ran across my old film cameras and old memory cards from my first digital cameras. I started to recall the times of film photography and compare it with the experience of the digital world.
It took me awhile (being so deep in digital cameras nowadays) to realize that film cameras limited me by certain number of pictures a photographic film roll could contain (not like digital cameras, which can take from few hundred to few thousand RAW pictures, depending on the capacity of a memory card). The limitation of a number of ‘exposures’ (in photographic jargon of course) in film cameras forced me to spend some time and think about a composition of a picture, how to frame a subject, inspect closely foreground, background, double check the lighting and any other details that could improve a picture so that no film would be wasted. This limitation of a film camera was (and for someone who uses a film camera still is) a very important step in the learning process of the art of photography and I personally believe that it still should be a part of the learning process of photography.
I think that digital cameras with their huge memory cards give us the freedom that actually does more harm than good for those who want to learn photography – we don’t take that extra time and effort on checking a composition of a picture like in a film camera because we know that we can re-take a picture countless times and delete easily ‘bad’ pictures without any financial costs (as it wasn’t the case in the photographic film roll era).
I think I have found a solution for those who own only digital cameras and who want to learn composition in a way it was done before. The solution is quite simple: next time you will go for a photo walk, do an assignment for yourself or just take pictures, leave your 8 or 16 GB memory card at home and take with you only one memory card of 1GB or even less (the less capacity, the better; I just checked that 1GB for shooting 12.1 MP RAW will give you about 68 exposures). Depending if you shoot RAW or JPEG and how many megapixels your camera has, you should find a memory card that enables you to take not more than 30 exposures. And remember to leave all other memory cards at home! This way you will limit your gear but you will definitely expand your knowledge and experience in composition!
I strongly encourage you to try it out few times and I guarantee that you will see improvement in your photography soon.
Happy Shooting!!!
——–
At LIME we believe in offering a platform to views and opinion by photographers we respect. It’s even possible that we don’t agree with some of the views of our guest contributors but we do respect every opinion.

Bounce Competition - 5th Place
May 9th, 2010 at 6:16pm
It took us some time to decide on the winners of the Bounce Competition, LIME organized in association with our friends at California Sunbounce. There were so many good entries that it made judging pretty difficult. We think it’s great that so many of you made the effort to go out and make a video about how you bounce. It’s this kind of sharing that makes us all better photographers. Thanks to all those who entered.
5th Place - Using Bounce as your Main Light and Fill Light by Jesus Esquivel
View on YouTube
We like the simple setups that Jesus shows us in his video. It may seem like nothing incredibly spectacular, but often it’s the simple setups that get you the best results. Jesus created some spectacular pictures because he really masters the setups he uses. It’s not enough to “kind of” know what you are doing. The devil is in the detail. Congrats Jesus! we’ll be in touch with you so we can send you the California Sunbounce Sun-Mover you won.
So that’s it then, 5th place of the competition? Not quiet, we had two candidates for this spot. Both had their supporters amongst the judges. In the end we couldn’t decide so we kindly asked the guys at Sunbounce if they would mind giving away TWO Sun-Movers.
the Other 5th Place - How We Bounce by Jay Scott
View on YouTube
To be very honest, we were not too impressed with the pictures Jay and his friend made. Judging by his website, Jay certainly has more in him than he shows in the video. But we still found his entry very inspirational. Being in a wheelchair certainly throws some challenges at Jay but with some creative outside the box thinking, he finds solutions. It’s a lesson for all of us. Lighting on location always comes with some surprises. And a good photographer always can make it work with what he has available. Keep up the good work Jay, we’ll be in touch with you.
Fourth place will be announced in a couple of days, so keep coming back!

*Lime Introduction
Lime is a coordination model and middleware based on the ideas found in Linda, a shared tuple space model developed at Yale in the 1980s. Lime has three primary incarnations, each tailored for a specific environment, ranging from mobile ad hoc networks to sensor networks with base stations or with actuators.
LIME
Lime (Linda in a Mobile Environment) is a model and middleware supporting the development of applications that exhibit physical mobility of hosts, logical mobility of agents, or both. Lime adopts a coordination perspective inspired by work on the Linda model. The context for computation, represented in Linda by a globally accessible, persistent tuple space, is refined in Lime to transient sharing of identically-named tuple spaces carried by individual mobile units. Tuple spaces are also extended with a notion of location and programs are given the ability to react to specified states. The resulting model provides a minimalist set of abstractions that facilitate rapid and dependable development of mobile applications.
TinyLIME
TinyLIME is a middleware for wireless sensor networks (WSN) that departs from the traditional WSN setting where sensor data is collected by a central monitoring station, and enables instead multiple mobile monitoring stations to access the sensors in their proximity and share the collected data through wireless links. This intrinsically context-aware setting is demanded by applications where the sensors are sparse and possibly isolated, and where on-site, location-dependent data collection is required. An extension of LIME, TinyLIME makes sensor data available through a tuple space interface, providing the illusion of shared memory between applications and sensors. Data aggregation capabilities and a power-savvy architecture complete the middleware features.
TeenyLIME
TeenyLIME is a tuple space model and middleware supporting applications where sensing and acting devices themselves drive the network behavior. In other words, the application core is not confined to the powerful sinks, rather it is deployed on the devices embedded within the physical world. Tuple space operations are used both for data collection as well as to effect coordination among sensing and acting devices.

Lime (material)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

For other uses, see Lime (disambiguation).
Look up lime in Wiktionary, the free dictionary.
Lime is a general term for calcium-containing inorganic materials, in which carbonates, oxides and hydroxides predominate. Strictly speaking, lime is calcium oxide or calcium hydroxide. It is also the name for a single mineral (native lime) of the CaO composition, occurring very rarely.[citation needed] The word "lime" originates with its earliest use as building mortar and has the sense of "sticking or adhering."[1] Lime can also refer to a sticky substance (birdlime) smeared on branches to catch small birds.
These materials are still used in large quantities as building and engineering materials (including limestone products, concrete and mortar) and as chemical feedstocks, among other uses. Lime industries and the use of many of the resulting products date from prehistoric periods in both the Old World and the New World.
The rocks and minerals from which these materials are derived, typically limestone or chalk, are composed primarily of calcium carbonate. They may be cut, crushed or pulverized and chemically altered. "Burning" (calcination) converts them into the highly caustic material quicklime (calcium oxide, CaO) and, through subsequent addition of water, into the less caustic (but still strongly alkaline) slaked lime or hydrated lime (calcium hydroxide, Ca(OH)2), the process of which is called slaking of lime.
When the term is encountered in an agricultural context, it probably refers to agricultural lime. Otherwise it most commonly means slaked lime, as the more dangerous form is usually described more specifically as quicklime or burnt lime.

* Limestone is extracted from quarries or mines.
* Part of the extracted stone, selected according to its chemical composition and granulometry, is calcinated at about 1000°C in different types of kiln, fired by such fuels as natural gas, coal, fuel oil, lignite, etc.
Quicklime is produced according to the reaction: CaCO3 + heat → CaO + CO2
* Quicklime can be hydrated, i.e., combined with water.
Hydrated lime, known as slaked lime, is produced according to the reaction: CaO + H2O → Ca(OH)2

[edit] Cooking
Zesting a lime
In cooking, lime is valued both for the acidity of its juice and the floral aroma of its zest. It is a very common ingredient in authentic Mexican, Southwestern United States, Vietnamese and Thai dishes. It is also used for its pickling properties in ceviche. The use of dried limes (called black lime or loomi) as a flavouring is typical of Persian cuisine and Iraqi cuisine, as well as in Gulf-style baharat (a spice mixture that is also called kabsa or kebsa). Lime is an essential ingredient of any cuisine from India, and many varieties of pickles are made, e.g. sweetened lime pickle, salted pickle, and lime chutney.[1][2]
Lime leaves are also a herb in South, East, and Southeast Asia.
Lime is frequently used to add flavour to cold and hot drinks, including water, tonic and other cocktails.
[edit] Other uses
To prevent scurvy during the 19th century, British sailors were issued a daily allowance of citrus such as lemon, and later switched to lime,[3] which was not as effective at preventing scurvy but was easier to obtain on Britain's Caribbean colonies. It was later discovered that the greater effectiveness of lemons derived from the 4-fold higher quantities of vitamin C lemon juice contains compared to the West Indian limes used by the British.
Lime extracts and essential oils are frequently used in perfumes, cleaning products, and aromatherapy.
In India, the lime is used in Tantra for removing evil spirits. It is also combined with Indian chilis to make a protective charm to repel the evil eye.[4] Furthermore, it was believed that hanging limes over sick people cured them of the illness by repelling evil spirits lurking inside the body.
[edit] Production trends
India, with about 16% of the world's overall lemon and lime output, tops the production list, followed by Mexico (~14.5%), Argentina (~10%), Brazil (~8%) and Spain (~7%).

Lime and lime-based products
Lime and lime-based products are used in a wide variety of traditional and emerging applications because of their chemical and physical properties. Calcined Lime or Quicklime (or Calcium Oxide or Burnt Lime) is obtained by calcining (controlled heating - time and temperature) limestone at temperatures above 900°C. This highly reactive product is essential in many industrial processes.
We are one of the leading manufacturers & suppliers of high-grade calcined lime (burnt lime / quicklime) which is manufactured from 'gas fired vertical shaft lime kiln' to enable higher and sustained quality of calcined lime for specific uses. This new technology of calcined lime produces a high-grade product, which is devoid of any external impurities (such as carbon, silica, sulphur, etc.) added in case of mix-fuel domestic kilns, where limestone is burnt with coal.
The project is set up near village Khimsar, District Nagaur, Rajasthan on NH 65.
Chemical formula: CaO
Process
The production of high calcium quicklime (calcium oxide) requires a large amount of heat, which is generated in the kiln environment. The quarried and sized high calcium limestone travels through a vertical shaft lime kiln and is subjected to these high temperatures where the calcium carbonate begins to dissociate with the resultant formation of calcium oxide. The minimum temperature for the dissociation of calcium carbonate is 1648°F (898°C). For practical production purposes, however, the kiln temperature range is from an initial temperatures of about 1750°F (954°C) to a final temperature of about 1950°F (1066°C). These temperatures can vary dependent upon the nature of the limestone being calcined.

"These are cubic crystals of table salt or sodium chloride."
You might call these salt crystals, but there are many types of salt, so it would be more precise to call them sodium chloride crystals.
Björn Appel
Chemical or scientific names are used to give an accurate description of a substance's composition. Even so, you rarely ask someone to pass the sodium chloride at the dinner table. It's important to remember that common names are inaccurate and vary from one place and time to another. Therefore, don't assume that you know the chemical composition of a substance based on its common name. This is a list of archaic chemical names and common names for chemicals, with their modern or IUPAC equivalent name. You also may be interested in the list of common chemicals and where to find them.
