Hydrated Lime is a dry powder mainly composed of calcium hydroxide Ca(OH)2. It is a colorless or white powder, which is obtained by hydrating Quicklime (Calcium Oxide) using specific equipment called hydrator in a process called hydration. The process converts CaO to Ca(OH)2. Actually, hydration is a chemical process in which water molecules combine with Quicklime. CaO + H2O â?? Ca(OH)2 + Heat Hydrated Lime has other common names like Slaked Lime, Caustic Lime, Builderâ??s Lime, and Slack Lime. Applications for Hydrated Lime: Water treatment Waste treatment Acid neutralization Building Fertilizer Soil stabilization Asphalt filler Food additive
This sedimentary rock which is composed primarily of Calcium Carbonate is integrally a multi-functional mineral used in industries for centuries. Limestone as one of the oldest minerals due to its very enduring geological evolution possesses different forms in nature and exhibits different colors. Its properties such as hardness, compactness, imperviousness, and durability have a significant role to play when it comes to its uses which are vast and versatile. This oldest component of ancient landmarks in the world is still practically an inseparable part of industries today. Middle East is amongst the top commodity traders of this mineral. And Arij is honored for having supplied the highest quality of Limestone and specifically the highest purity of 99% at a cost-effective price to different countries.

calcium oxide (CaO), or commonly referred to as quicklime, is a high calcium content derivative of our 98.5% pure calcium carbonate (limestone). Calcium oxide is produced by heating calcium carbonate to 2000 degrees F where carbon dioxide disassociates as a gas from the calcium carbonate: {CaCO3} + Heat = {CaO} + {CO2} Calcium oxide can be utilized in a variety of applications because of its physical and chemical qualities. Arij Global Trading quicklime is used in flue gas desulfurization, water and waste water treatment, steel, paper, chemical and environmental applications.
