Lime Slaking Temperature: The Key Factor for Superior Quality and Productivity

Slaked lime, chemical name calcium hydroxide, chemical formula Ca (OH)₂. It is obtained by adding water to quicklime (calcium oxide CaO) and undergoing a slaking reaction. This process is also called lime digestion, and heat is released during the reaction.

Cronus calcium hydroxide production line

Cronus deeply explores the development direction of lime deep processing and lime kiln deep processing, and carefully develops a new type of calcium hydroxide production line equipment to help the slaked lime project create value.

The production line mainly includes digesters, homogenization silos, grinding hosts, powder selectors and other components. Among them, the digestion system is an intelligent water distribution system. Slag discharge can be carried out after digestion is completed, which can improve the purity of calcium hydroxide.

The entire system occupies a small area and has a long effective length, which can be fully digested. The use of fully automatic control can enhance quality control capabilities. It has good wear resistance, impact resistance and comprehensive wear resistance. It is a special mill that improves grinding efficiency and improves powder whiteness and purity. The energy-saving effect of the powder selector is significant, which can greatly increase the output of the mill system.

Lime slaking temperature

During the lime slaking (digestion) process, lime slaking temperature plays a key role in its reaction rate and effect. Generally speaking, the higher the temperature, the faster the reaction will proceed.

At room temperature, that is, in the range of 20°C to 30°C, the lime slaking reaction is relatively slow. This makes the entire reaction process easier to control.

When the lime slaking temperature rises to more than 50°C, the reaction is significantly accelerated. However, it is important to pay attention to safety issues. Excessive temperature may cause dangerous conditions due to overheating.

Increased lime slaking temperature speeds up molecular movement. Accelerated molecular movement, in turn, increases the reaction rate.

The quality of the product is also affected by lime slaking temperature. Appropriate high temperatures can help produce finer slaked lime. However, excessive temperatures may cause local overheating of the lime, negatively affecting the quality of the slaked lime.

Cronus calcium hydroxide production line technical features

Raw materials/finished products/waste residues do not fall to the ground in the production line, and each storage and equipment is transported by pulse negative pressure throughout the process

The production process can be customized according to the content of different raw materials, purity of finished powder, fineness and application field of powder;

The conversion rate of calcium oxide into calcium hydroxide powder is high, with less waste residue, and it can form high, medium and low quality finished powders to improve competitive advantages;

The production line is intelligent, centrally controlled, and requires less labor. It can be started with one button and in different areas. It will automatically stop and prompt maintenance when a fault occurs.

Welcome to the slaked lime production equipment manufacturing base at any time to learn about the equipment details. Cronus uses its rich experience in equipment manufacturing and solution making to provide excellent production line design solutions for calcium hydroxide projects.
