Research Summary
Quicklime, also known as burnt lime or calcium oxide (CaO), is a chemical compound derived from heating limestone, chalk, or marble at high temperatures, typically above 900 degrees Celsius (1,650 degrees Fahrenheit), in a process known as calcination. This results in the removal of carbon dioxide and other impurities, leaving behind a white, caustic, and crystalline substance. Quicklime is highly reactive and exothermic; upon contact with water, it undergoes a vigorous exothermic reaction to produce slaked lime (calcium hydroxide), releasing heat in the process. Quicklime is utilized in various industrial applications, including the manufacturing of cement, paper, and chemicals, as well as in environmental processes like water treatment and flue gas desulfurization. Due to its caustic nature, proper safety precautions are necessary when handling and using quicklime.
