Applications

Uses of Limestone and Dolomite stone

ENVIRONMENTAL

Environmental Environment applications include scrubbing (desulphurisation) of flue gas emissions, treatment of waste water and remediation of polluted soils.

STEEL

Lime acts as a flux to purify steel during the heating process by promoting fusion of the slag and assisting in impurity removal. This lowers the melting point in metallurgical processes and it binds with metals to form slag. Dolomite protects refractories from being errored by liquid steel.

REFINING AND SMELTING

Lime is used in the refining and smelting of several Non-Ferrous metals and is used in the treatment of tailings.

CHEMICAL PROCESS

Lime is used in the refining and smelting of several Non-Ferrous metals and is used in the treatment of tailings.

CONSTRUCTION

The most popular use of lime in construction is soil stabilisation and coagulation (cementing).
