Chossing the suitable Quicklime for Sugar refinery

Day 17/08/2023

Quicklime, also known as calcium oxide, plays a crucial role in the sugar refinery process due to its unique chemical properties. It is also used to purify sugar derived from other sources, such as maple or sorghum.

Quicklime in Sugar Refinery

In sugar refineries, quicklime is used in the clarification of sugarcane juice by raising its pH level and precipitating impurities such as waxes, proteins, and other organic compounds. Excess lime is removed by carbonation or by the addition of phosphoric acid. This process may be repeated several times depending on the purity of final product required.

Viet Nam Technology Mineral JSC has ultra high calcium limestone reserves with minimum 98.0% calcium carbonate content, which is the best quality material for making Quicklime. Quicklime also aids in the neutralization of acids present in the sugarcane juice, leading to a more efficient extraction of sucrose. Additionally, quicklime facilitates the coagulation of colloidal particles during filtration, resulting in a cleaner final product. Its high alkalinity and reactivity make quicklime an indispensable tool for enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of sugar refining operations. We also supply Quicklime at high purity for many industries in Africa, such as: Mining gold, Water waste treatment, Building material, Metallurgy, etc.
