CALCIUM CHLORIDE USING LIME STONE AND HYDROCHLORIC ACID
[EIRI/EDPR/1560] J.C.355
INTRODUCTION
Calcium chloride is widely distributed in nature, but in small concentration, as a constituent of saline matter dissolved in sea, spring, river and lake, waters. Deposits of tachydrite calcium chloride do not occur in India.
Calcium chloride is a compound of calcium and chlorine, widely used in industry as an addition in drinking water, anti-dust treatment of roads, sports ground, tennis courts, tiding trades, public squares, building yard, road stabilization etc.
It can be prepared by the reaction with Hydrochloric acid and lime stone, saline water with lime stone by reaction with hydrated lime and chlorine etc.
Large quantities of calcium chloride are present in the distiller waste of the ammonia soda process for soda and manufacture for every ton of soda ash produced, one ton of calcium chloride is obtained. The composition of the waste liquor varies according to the quality of brine and lime stone used, the volume of feed liquor to be distilled per ton of ash, the percentage decomposition in the towers, and the strength of milk of lime employed. Normally, 10-12 cum of waste liquor containing 85-95 g/litre. of calcium chloride are obtained per ton of soda ash.
As per the physical state of calcium chloride, it is white deliquescent crystals granules, lumps or flakes. Its chemical formula is (a) CaCl2 (anhydrous); (b) CaCl2.H2O; (c) Cacl2.2H2O (d) CaCl2.6H2O.
All forms are soluble in water and alcohol.
