About Burnt Lime
Burnt Lime, a monoxide of calcium (CaO), is often referred to as Quicklime. This is a chemical compound that is manufactured by heating limestone at a high temperature. It has excellent properties such as corrosion-resistant, high permeability, and temperature resistance, due to which it is extensively deployed in major industries, such as construction, metal, and mining, among others. It is available in different forms such as powder and lumps. Burnt Lime has been used in varied applications ranging from building materials to fertilizer & soil amendment.
