10、erTreatment Plant Residuals3. Chemical Composition3.1 The requirements for quicklime, hydrated lime, andlimestone for the selected end uses are as shown in Table 1, andare on the basis of the weight of sample taken at the place ofmanufacture, except as noted in footnote B after the require-ment. In
11、this case, the requirement is on a moisture and carbondioxide-free basis.NOTE 1Rags are cooked for the manufacture of paper in a digesterunder steam pressure with lime or with lime and soda ash. They are thenwashed to eliminate as much of the noncellulose material as possible. Astandard composition
12、without rejection limits is specified for the reasonthat lime of either higher or lower total oxides, available lime, calciumoxide, or calcium hydroxide than the standard, may safely be used undersuitable conditions for the purpose herein specified, depending primarilyupon economic considerations. I
13、n the present state of the art, it is believed1This specification is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee C07 on Limeand is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee C07.03 on Industrial Uses.Current edition approved Nov. 15, 2006.

15、s section appears at the end of this standard.Copyright ASTM International, 100 Barr Harbor Drive, PO Box C700, West Conshohocken, PA 19428-2959, United States.that the more serviceable type of specification for the product hereinspecified is that which defines a reasonable standard rather than one
16、thatfixes actual rejection limits. It is generally recognized that, other thingsbeing equal, lime meeting this standard is preferable to lime that does not,and lime surpassing the standard should be considered of premium quality.NOTE 2Lime is used in the “milk of lime” or “tank” system of sulfitepul
17、p manufacture for making the cooking liquor. The milk of lime is heldin solution or suspension in a series of tanks equipped with suitableagitators. The sulfur dioxide (SO2) is forced or drawn through these tankssuccessively. In some cases, the tanks are built on top of each other in theform of a to
18、wer. The contents of the first tank are drawn off when theliquor has reached a certain strength (3.5 to 6 % total SO2) and thecontents of the second and third tanks progress to the first and secondtanks respectively. The third tank is again charged with fresh milk of lime.There are other systems of
19、absorption that provide for continuous insteadof intermittent operation. The function of the lime is to furnish the base forthe formation of the bisulfites of calcium and magnesium.NOTE 3In the manufacture of silica brick, silica in the form ofmassive quartzite or quartz conglomerate is ground until
20、 the particles areless than14 in. (6 mm) in size. Lime in the form of either slaked orhydrated lime is then added in quantities varying from 1.5 to 3.0 %calcium oxide (CaO), with sufficient water to produce about 5 to 7 %moisture content, and the shapes are molded and dried. They are thenburned in d
21、owndraft or tunnel kilns until most of the quartzite has beenconverted into tridymite or cristobalite.NOTE 4For most water treatment applications, such as color removaland clarification of water for municipal and industrial supplies, high-calcium lime is preferred. However, for applications involvin
22、g silicaremoval from boiler feedwater, dolomitic lime is usually preferred.Drinking water softening and wastewater neutralization are addressed inSpecification C 1529.NOTE 5In manufacture of calcium hypochlorite bleach, lime hydratein water suspension is reacted with chlorine. Lime hydrate suitable
23、for thisapplication should be rapidly reactive, low in sludge-forming impurities,and particularly low in iron oxide, that may catalyze bleach decomposi-tion.4. General Requirements4.1 Quicklime shall be reasonably free of unslakable resi-dues and shall be capable of disintegrating in water to form a
24、suspension of finely divided material.5. Sampling and Inspection5.1 Conduct the sampling, inspection, rejection, retesting,packaging, and marking in accordance with Methods C50.6.
