  2. Decrepitation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decrepitation

    D2 decrepitation is characterized by a starting heat range of about 300-700°C, the temperature can also increase rapidly for a few hundred degrees, such as in solid inclusions. D3 decrepitation is continuously heated until the rate reaches its maximum out at about 350-450°C, D3 decrepitation can be observed in carbonates and is defined by the ...

  3. Lime kiln - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lime_kiln

    The theoretical heat (the standard enthalpy) of reaction required to make high-calcium lime is around 3.15 MJ per kg of lime, so the batch kilns were only around 20% efficient. The key to development in efficiency was the invention of continuous kilns, avoiding the wasteful heat-up and cool-down cycles of the batch kilns.

  4. Hydraulic lime - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_lime

    Natural hydraulic lime (NHL) is produced by heating (calcining) limestone that naturally contains clay and other impurities: no materials may be added to create the hydraulicity. In the United States NHL may be called 'hydrated hydraulic lime' (HHL) per ASTM C-141 Standard Specification for Hydrated Hydraulic Lime for Structural Purposes.

    As it continues through the kiln, the temperature is reduced until the ware exits the kiln nearly at room temperature. A continuous kiln is energy-efficient, because heat given off during cooling is recycled to pre-heat the incoming ware. In some designs, the ware is left in one place, while the heating zone moves across it.

    The Salt Lake Tribune reports that John Jones remains inside Utah County's Nutty Putty Cave, entombed where he died 15 years ago, but he isn't the only one still ensnared by it.

  7. Lime (material) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lime_(material)

    It is also the name for calcium oxide which is used as an industrial mineral and is made by heating calcium carbonate in a kiln. Calcium oxide can occur as a product of coal-seam fires and in altered limestone xenoliths in volcanic ejecta. [1] The International Mineralogical Association recognizes lime as a mineral with the chemical formula of ...
