CALCINED LIME

Calcined Lime (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 to many industrial processes.

CaO (Calcium Oxide) is the chemical formula of quick lime, which is also called as calcined lime, burnt lime and unslaked lime.These are white and in lumps and powder in form with CaO contents varying from 90% to 80% and it reacts with water and heat is generated.

Process High calcium quicklime readily reacts with water to form hydrated lime. The reaction is highly exothermic and the process is known as "slaking". The reaction is usually carried out in a "slaker" (a specially designed mixer) which, through a process of rigorous mixing, makes certain that all of the quicklime has come into intimate contact with water and no unreacted quicklime remains. From a general viewpoint the hydrated lime produced can be in the form of dry hydrate, putty slurry, or "milk of lime".
