ASTRA LIME / QUICK – High-Quality Calcium Oxide for Industrial Applications from Astra Mining
ASTRA LIME / QUICK is a high-quality calcium oxide (CaO) made through a process called calcination. This method involves heating limestone (CaCO₃) in vertical kilns at temperatures between 950°C and 1,100°C. As a result, the limestone breaks down into calcium oxide and releases carbon dioxide. This transformation makes ASTRA LIME/ QUICK highly reactive and ideal for various industries. Its purity and efficiency make it a preferred choice for many applications.
Main Uses of ASTRA LIME / QUICK
ASTRA LIME/ QUICK is widely used across different industries. Its chemical properties make it valuable in manufacturing, construction, and agriculture. Some of its key applications include:
- Steel Industry: Quicklime helps remove impurities such as phosphorus and sulfur during steel production. This improves the strength and durability of the final product.
- Chemical Industry: It plays a key role in the production of calcium hydroxide (hydrated lime), an ingredient in many industrial products.
- Paint Industry: Quicklime is used to enhance paint quality, improving adhesion and durability.
