Introduction
Introduction to Calcium Hydroxide for Water Treatment
Calcium hydroxide, chemically represented as Ca(OH)₂, is a highly efficient and versatile material widely used in water treatment processes. With a focus on innovation and sustainability, our company specializes in the research, development, and production of advanced calcium-based solutions. Our high-purity calcium hydroxide is engineered to deliver superior performance in neutralizing acidic water, removing impurities, and improving water quality, making it a preferred choice for municipal, industrial, and agricultural water treatment applications.
Key Features of Calcium Hydroxide for Water Treatment
High Purity: ≥90% Ca(OH)₂ content, ensuring effective and reliable performance.
Enhanced Reactivity: Rapid neutralization of acidic water and efficient removal of contaminants.
Low Moisture Content: <2% wet content, ensuring stability and ease of handling.
Eco-Friendly: Complies with global environmental standards, including REACH certification.
Cost-Effective: Reduces operational costs by optimizing water treatment efficiency.
How Calcium Hydroxide Works in Water Treatment
Our calcium hydroxide is designed to maximize efficiency in water treatment processes. Here’s how it works:
Neutralization of Acidic Water
Calcium hydroxide reacts with acidic compounds in water to raise the pH level, making it safe for consumption and industrial use.
Example Reaction:
Ca(OH)₂ + 2H⁺ → Ca²⁺ + 2H₂O
Removal of Heavy Metals
It precipitates heavy metals such as lead, arsenic, and cadmium, making them easier to filter out.
Example Reaction:
Ca(OH)₂ + Pb²⁺ → Pb(OH)₂ + Ca²⁺
Water Softening
Calcium hydroxide reacts with bicarbonate ions to reduce water hardness, preventing scale formation in pipes and equipment.
Example Reaction:
Ca(OH)₂ + 2HCO₃⁻ → CaCO₃ + CO₃²⁻ + 2H₂O
Advantages of Using Calcium Hydroxide for Water Treatment
High Efficiency: Effectively neutralizes acidic water and removes impurities.
Easy to Handle: Available in powder form with low moisture content (<2%), making it easy to store and transport.
Sustainable: Reduces the environmental impact of water treatment processes.
Cost Savings: Lowers the need for expensive water treatment chemicals and equipment.
Applications in Water Treatment
Municipal Water Treatment: Neutralizes acidic water and removes contaminants for safe drinking water.
Industrial Wastewater Treatment: Treats wastewater from manufacturing processes to meet environmental regulations.
Mining Operations: Removes heavy metals and neutralizes acidic mine drainage.
Agricultural Water Management: Improves water quality for irrigation and livestock.
