Products based on calcium hydroxide have a surprisingly wide variety of applications. The fact is that slaked lime has been used since time immemorial and with amazing results. Some of imprtant application as below -
- Waste Water/Water Treatment
- Construction
- Flue Gas Treatment
- Chemical Processes and Chemical Reactions
- Petrochemicals
- Calcium Salts (citrates, phosphates, stearates),
- Acid Neutralization
- Chemical Reactions
- Calcium Enrichment (food, pharmaceutical, neutraceutical).
Calcium hydroxide can be found in the food industry providing calcium and as a pH modifier, as well as in the management of gases, as it has a high effectivity in the capture of acidic pollutants from industrial smoke and vapours. It is also an additive in feeds improving animal nutrition, and is used in animal-pens for its disinfecting power, lowering the number of pathogens and virus. In the sugar-industry it can be used to precipitate out impurities and to obtain purified sucrose.
It also brings benefits in sludge treatment as it is an exceptional aid in the elimination of micro-organisms and bacteria which at the same time neutralizes bad smells.Its properties are especially useful for water treatment, because it acts as a clarifier, a coagulant, a neutralizer and for the precipitation of dissolved pollutants.
