Notes:
Slaked lime is a suspension of hydrated lime in water that can contain up to 40% ofsolids in suspension. The quality of the suspensions of slaked lime depends on the quality of limeused and on a careful choice of the conditions during the hydration process. A high quality slakedlime is a product with a small quantity of insoluble residues, high specific surface area, highalkaline content and small particle size. Therefore, the objective of this work was to study the bestconditions of temperature and concentration to produce a superior slaked lime. A statistic analysiswas performed using the experimental results in order to optimize the operational conditions of thehydration process. The use of hydration water around 74 °C, of small particles of CaO (0.144 mm)and of a CaO/H2O ratio around 220 g/L contributed to the production a slaked lime suspension offine quality
