Calcium Hydroxide Powder
Calcium Hydroxide Powder
A significant application of calcium hydroxide is as a flocculant in the treatment of water and wastewater. It forms a soft charged solid that helps remove smaller particles from the water, resulting in a lighter product. This application is possible thanks to the low cost and low toxicity of calcium hydroxide. It is also used in the treatment of freshwater to increase the pH of the water so that the pipes do not corrode where the base water is acidic since it is self-regulating and does not increase the pH too much.
