Finishing lime

Finishing lime is a refined hydrated lime, milled to make it suitable for plastering, particularly the finish coat. Putty derived from this hydrate possesses unusually high plasticity. 

Today, Low-Btu Gas (LBG) is expected to be preferred in small demand applications for single users located outside of downtown metropolitan areas. Specific industries in which LBG is expected to be most competitive include primary metals, iron ore beneficia-tion, metal finishing, lime brick refractory, and food industries. Another potential market for Low-Btu Gas is in combined cycle power generation. Cleaned Low-Btu Gas may be particularly advantageous when a plant has many separate combustors which, because of the anticipated new environmental standards, would require either multiple scrubbers or a flue gas collection system. Cleaned Low-Btu Gas is also one of the few options available to a user planning a plant expansion in a non-attainment area.

Note The above systems are for application to steel blast-cleaned to a near-while finish (Second Quality of BS 4232 1967) and immediately shop-primed before fabrication. The shop primer must be thoroughly cleaned and degreased at the lime of painting. 

The manufacture of Portland concrete consists of three basic steps—crushing, burning, and finish grinding. As noted earlier, Portland cement contains about 60% lime, 25% silicates, and 5% alumina with the remainder being iron oxides and gypsum. Most cement plants are located near limestone (CaCOs) quarries since this is the major source of lime. Lime may also come from oyster shells, chalk, and a type of clay called marl. The silicates and alumina are derived from clay, silicon sand, shale, and blast-furnace slag. 

A 10-miUion-gallon-per-day wastewater treatment facility in El Paso, Texas, has operated since 1985. A PACT system operates as part of a treatment train that includes screening, the two-stage PACT system, lime treatment, two-stage recarbonization, sand filtration, ozonation, GAC filtration, chlorination, and finished water storage. Treatment costs for the entire system are 1.60 per 1000 gal (D19952E, p. 3).
