Decarbonising the lime industry: State-of-the-art

The thermal treatment of limestone (mainly CaCO 3) to produce lime (CaO) is a major contributor to CO 2 emissions and the literature on decarbonising the lime industry is scarce. Subsequent hydration of lime would lead to the synthesis of slaked/hydrated lime Ca(OH) 2; the production of a tonne of Ca(OH) 2 emits ∼1.2 tonnes of CO 2 arising …

Burning lime is CO2-intensive | Maerz Ofenbau AG

Even in modern energy-saving kilns such as the Maerz-PFR kilns, approx. 1 t of CO 2 emissions are produced per ton of lime produced. About 20 % of this CO 2 comes from the combustion of the fuel and 80 % from the calcination process itself, in which calcium carbonate (CaCO 3 ) is broken down into its components quicklime (CaO) and CO 2 .
