Slaked Lime (Calcium Hydroxide)

is the product calcined by heating high purity limestone at 900 – 1100°C in our parallel flow kilns.

Slaked Lime, or Calcium Hydroxide, is produced by hydrating quicklime (Calcium Oxide) with a controlled amount of water in a process called slaking. This is typically done in a hydrator, where the exact amount of water required for the reaction is added to quicklime, producing a dry, free-flowing powder. This method allows for the control of the chemical's purity and reactivity, which can vary according to the application needs. Slaked lime is used in various industries including construction, water treatment, food preparation, and chemical processes.

Characteristics of Slaked Lime:

  • Moderate Reactivity
  • Alkalinity
  • Water Demand
  • Limestone Derivation
  • Environmental Applications
  • Plasticity
