Lime (CaO), also known as quicklime, is a versatile chemical compound widely used in water treatment, oil well stimulation, cement manufacturing, and petrochemical production. It is produced by heating limestone (CaCO3) and is used in a range of processes where its alkaline properties help neutralize acids and enhance reaction efficiency.
In water treatment, Lime is used to adjust pH, precipitate heavy metals, and soften water, making it an essential agent in the removal of impurities from both drinking and wastewater.
In oil well stimulation, Lime is used in cement slurries for wellbore cementing and as a fluid loss additive in drilling fluids, helping to improve strength and adhesion of wellbore cement, ensuring better stability and sealing.
In cement production, Lime is a key component in the calcination process, where it is used to produce calcium silicates, which form the main binder in cement.
