Hydrated Lime consists of Calcium and Hydration, Ca(OH)2. It is converted from Quicklime into a fine, dry powder by adding water under controlled conditions.
Our Hydrated Lime is processed by using the 10 MT / Hour technology from Italy. With this technology, Compact Energy assures to offer best physical as well as chemical properties for our Hydrated Lime.
Applications of Hydrated Lime
Hydrated lime is produced by adding water to quicklime, which then forms into dry hydrated powder.
The reaction process of Hydrated Lime : CaO + H2O Ca(OH)2
Potable Water Treatment
Hydrated lime is used in water softening where the source of water is hard. It is possible to purify the water against bacteria. During water purification, the coagulated suspended solids in raw water are removed. It serves to maintain the proper pH of potable water.
Air Pollution Abatement
The most important role in air pollution abatement is the removal of SO2 gas generated by the industrial and incineration plants.
Nonferrous Uses
Magnesium is recovered from MgCI2 through electrolytic process. Ca(OH)2 is added to react with MgCI2 followed by reaction with HCI to separate the Magnesium.
Sugar Refining Process
In the refinery of sugar, “sugar syrup” is treated with hydrated lime to remove impurities.
