High-Quality Quick Lime Powder from Shri Jodhpur Lime
Quick Lime Powder, chemically known as calcium oxide (CaO), is a crucial industrial chemical used in a variety of manufacturing and processing applications. It is produced by the thermal decomposition (calcination) of limestone at high temperatures, resulting in a fine, dry, white powder with strong alkaline properties.
At Shri Jodhpur Lime, we specialize in manufacturing and supplying premium-quality Quick Lime Powder sourced from high-grade limestone in the Manakpur region. As a reputed quick lime powder supplier in Jodhpur, we provide consistent, high-purity products suitable for diverse industrial applications.
How is Quick Lime Manufactured?
Understanding the manufacturing process is crucial for industrial buyers who prioritize quality, reactivity, and efficiency.
- 95–98% Calcium Carbonate (CaCO₃)
- Low silica and magnesium impurities
- Controlled moisture content
Rajasthan’s mineral-rich deposits give us access to superior limestone, ensuring higher CaO yield and lower waste.
- Crushed into uniform sizes (20–80 mm)
- Screened to eliminate dust and impurities
- Prepared for kiln feeding
Uniform feed size ensures optimal calcination and fuel efficiency.
- Limestone is heated in vertical shaft kilns (VSK) at temperatures between: 900°C to 1200°C
- Chemical Reaction: CaCO3→CaO+CO2CaCO₃ → CaO + CO₂CaCO3→CaO+CO2
Precise temperature control ensures:
- Complete calcination
- High available CaO
- Low residual carbonate
- Reduced overburning
Post-calcination:
- Lime is cooled gradually to preserve reactivity
- Graded into lumps or processed into powder
- Packed in bulk or customized packaging
This systematic manufacturing ensures high purity and consistent industrial performance.
