Detailed Project Report on quicklime

QUICK LIME
[CODE NO.3202]  


It is also known as caustic lime. It is obtained by calcination (i.e. heating to redness) of comparatively pure lime stone. It is amorphous in nature, highly caustic and possesses great affinity to moisture.

Quicklime is also known as burnt lime.
 
Quicklime (calcium oxide) is a white solid having a crystalline structure. Quicklime is highly reactive with water, generating considerable heat in the hydration process. It can be bought at masonry supply stores.

Quicklime is the compound which is used commonly for whitewashing houses. The chemical name of quick lime or lime is calcium oxide. The chemical formula of quicklime is CaO.

It is available in three forms:

    High calcium quicklime -- derived from limestone containing 0 to 5 percent magnesium carbonate.

    Magnesian quicklime -- derived from limestone containing 5 to 35 percent magnesium carbonate.

    Dolomitic quicklime -- derived from limestone containing 35 to 46 percent magnesium carbonate.
