- Our Trade Process
What is Quicklime (CaO)?
Quicklime, also known as calcium oxide (CaO), is a white, caustic, alkaline substance produced by heating limestone (calcium carbonate, CaCO₃) in a kiln at high temperatures (typically above 900°C) in a process called calcination:
CaCO3 (+ heat) → CaO (quicklime) + CO2
Key Properties:
- White or grayish-white solid
- Highly reactive with water (exothermic reaction)
- Alkaline and corrosive
- Hygroscopic (absorbs moisture from air)
Uses:
- Construction: Quicklime is used to make lime mortar, plaster, and lime concrete. It's also applied in soil stabilization for building roads and foundations.
- Steel and metallurgy: It acts as a fluxing agent, helping to remove impurities like silica, sulfur, and phosphorus from molten metals during steel manufacturing.
- Water treatment: Quicklime is used to adjust pH levels and help remove heavy metals, suspended solids, and other impurities from water and wastewater.
- Environmental protection: It neutralizes acidic industrial waste and is used in flue gas treatment to remove sulfur dioxide and other acidic gases.
- Chemical industry: It serves as a precursor in producing calcium hydroxide and various other chemical compounds.
- Paper and pulp manufacturing: In the kraft process, quicklime is part of the chemical cycle used in making paper from wood pulp.
- Mining: It controls acidity and stabilizes pH during mineral extraction and flotation processes.
- Agriculture: Quicklime is used to correct acidic soil and reduce the presence of pests and pathogens in the soil.
- Petroleum industry: It’s used in oil drilling fluids and muds to manage acidity and react with CO₂ and H₂S gases.
- Food processing (in limited regulated amounts): It’s used in sugar refining to clarify juice by removing impurities.

Our trade process spreads across C&F and FOB depending on the buyer's preference.
Here's what they entail:
1). Cost and Freight (C&F): Here, the seller will handle everything from loading the vessel and shipping the product to wherever the buyer wants it delivered.
2). Freight On Board (FOB): Here, the seller pays for the transportation of the goods to the port of shipment, plus loading costs, while the buyer pays the cost of marine freight transport, insurance, unloading, and transportation from the originating port to the final destination.
