Abstract
A novel method and composition of high solid content lime slurry composed of a lime material and water that can be used in stabilization applications. The lime slurry compound itself is chemically treated, by means of a cellulosic or other thixotropic agent(s) and sucrose to create a thixotropic flow property controlled system wherein the wetted lime material remains in suspension, does not settle out prior to use even without further mixing and maintains suitable temperatures without excessive heat build. A novel apparatus and method for mixing the novel lime slurry is disclosed to insure the exact proportioning of all ingredients and the proper wetting of the lime material.
