ادامه مطلب1. Introduction. Lime (CaO) is an important product used in different sectors of the industry as well as in agriculture. The production of lime is achieved through the calcination of limestone (mainly CaCO 3) at temperatures between 900 and 1200 °C.This process is highly endothermic and requires the combustion of fuels such as gas oil, coal, …
