Multiple Grade Options
Customised Supply & Packaging
Controlled Manufacturing Process
Our production facility features modern vertical shaft kilns with precise temperature control and uniform burning. This results in consistently reactive CaO quicklime with minimal unburnt material and reliable quality.
Wide Industry Applications
Performance Benefits of Our CaO Quicklime Across Industries
- High SO₂ neutralisation efficiency
- Lower reagent usage per unit output
- Reduced scaling in scrubbers
- Stable long-term performance
- Faster slag formation in BOF & EAF furnaces
- Effective sulfur and phosphorus removal
- Reduced flux consumption
- Improved molten metal purity
The hydroxide ions (OH⁻) increase the pH of acidic wastewater, making lime an effective industrial pH correction chemical.
- Maintains stable pH in gold cyanidation
- Controls acid mine drainage
- Improves metal recovery rates
- Enhances tailings management
- Improves soil bearing capacity
- Reduces moisture content
- Minimises swelling in clay soils
- Enhances durability of roads and foundations
