Power & Energy
High-grade lime is an essential material in the power and energy industry where efficiency, reliability and environmental compliance are critical. Its versatility and chemical properties make it a key resource for multiple applications in power generation and energy management.
Lime plays a pivotal role in flue gas desulfurisation (FGD) systems which are widely used in thermal power plants. It effectively captures sulfur dioxide from exhaust gases reducing emissions and supporting compliance with environmental regulations for SOx NOx and particulate matter. This not only protects the environment but also improves operational efficiency by maintaining clean equipment and reducing corrosion.
In addition to emission control lime is used in wastewater treatment within power plants. It neutralises acidic components and maintains optimal pH levels allowing treated water to be safely recycled or discharged. Lime also contributes to ash conditioning in coal-fired plants by reducing dust and improving handling characteristics. Its controlled particle size and high purity make it reliable for precise dosing and consistent performance across all processes.
Lime is also utilised in boiler water treatment where it prevents scale formation, enhances heat transfer efficiency and extends the lifespan of equipment. Its use supports operational stability and reduces maintenance requirements.
