Abstract
A method of manufacturing micro-particulated hydrated lime slurries includes the steps of blending hydrated lime and water to form a mixture, mixing the hydrated lime and water mixture under high shear to form a slurry, transferring the hydrated lime and water slurry to a storage container, and adjusting the percent weight solids of the hydrated lime and water slurry to a predetermined weight solids content. Mixing the hydrated lime and water mixture under high shear can include mixing with a high shear disperser and/or with a high shear rotor/stator mixer. The resultant slurry includes hydrated lime particles with a median particle size of about 6 micrometers or less.
