Hydrated Lime Manufacturers Plant Solution
Hydrated lime, also known as calcium hydroxide, hydrated lime manufacturers plant is widely used in the production of hydrated lime in many different industries. AGICO’s hydrated lime manufacturing plant strictly implements the international ISO 9001 quality management system. The purity of hydrated lime is up to more than 90%, the impurity content is very little, the moisture content of the finished product is controlled at less than 1.5%, the particle size of the product is at 325 mesh, and the finished product can also be adjusted to meet the production requirements of different fields. Compared to small-scale lime calcination plant, lime hydration plants are larger in scale.

Highlights of Hydrated Lime Manufacturers Plant
High Product Quality
AGICO’s lime hydration plant equipment selects high-quality raw materials and undergoes rigorous testing to achieve high production efficiency and energy utilization. The final product produced by the lime hydration plant has a pass rate of more than 98%.
Environmental Protection
The kiln used in lime hydration plant is characterized by low energy consumption, low carbon emission, and high heat recovery utilization rate. Advanced dust removal equipment is also cultivated to ensure that the whole production process is green and environmentally friendly.
Large Production Capacity
The lime hydration plant has a large production capacity and is capable of producing hydrated lime in large quantities with high efficiency. The production capacity can also be flexibly adjusted according to the customer’s needs to meet the demands of both domestic and foreign markets.
Low Cost
Since the lime hydration plant is a large-scale production, the unit cost can be effectively reduced. At the same time, the advanced energy recycling technology saves the use of fuel and reduces fuel costs.
Application of Hydrated Lime Manufacturers Plant
——Your trusted lime calcination plant manufacturer, your best choice!
Power Plant: hydrated lime absorbs sulfur dioxide in flue gas.
Sewage Treatment: hydrated lime adjusts the ph value of sewage from acidic to neutral.
Construction Industry: hydrated lime increases the adhesion and anti-cracking properties of mortar and concrete.
Food Factory: hydrated lime is used for peeling and hair removal.
Hydrated Lime Manufacturers Plant Process
- Limestone Pre-processing: Limestone is fed into a jaw stone crusher, hammer stone crusher or cone stone crusher to be crushed to a size suitable for calcination to ensure uniformity of subsequent calcination.
- Calcination: An important step before hydrated lime manufacturers plant make slaked lime is to extract the quicklime by calcination. The decomposition of limestone occurs to produce calcium oxide (CaO) and carbon dioxide (CO₂), the calcium oxide being quicklime.
- Cooling: The temperature of calcined quicklime is very high, it needs to be cooled by a cooler, which can make the activeness of quicklime higher, as well as easy to be transported in packing boxes.
- Digestion of Quicklime: The key step in the transformation of quicklime into hydrated lime is the digestion reaction. Lime is mixed evenly with water in a chemical reaction (generally 1.8 to 2 times the weight of the lime) to produce calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)₂), which is also known as hydrated lime.
- Screening: The digested hydrated lime is usually in powder form, but the granularity is not uniform, so it is necessary to grade the hydrated lime through equipment such as vibrating screen machine to ensure that the granularity is in accordance with the standard required by the customer.
- Drying: Digested hydrated lime may still contain water, which needs to be dried by a specialized dryer. The moisture content of the dried hydrated lime is controlled below 1.5%.
The hydrated lime manufacturer plant is usually larger and requires higher calcination efficiency, so an annular lime kiln, twin shaft lime kiln, and lime rotary kiln are recommended for the calcination stage. The annular lime kiln is a continuous operation kiln, capable of utilizing the heat of the exhaust gases to preheat the limestone, with an efficient heat recovery system. Twin Shaft Lime Kiln also known as pfr kiln, is two parallel kilns for alternate firing and cooling, short of uniformity, product quality is stable. The Lime Rotary Kiln is one of the most common large-scale lime calcination kilns, capable of continuous operation and flexible adjustment of the kiln’s temperature and capacity.
