1. Lime kilnA lime kiln is used to produce quicklime through the calcination of limestone. The chemical equation for this reaction is CaCO3 + heat → CaO + CO2 This reaction takes place at 900°C (at which temperature the partial pressure of CO2 is 1 atmosphere), but a temperature around 1000°C (at which temperature the partial pressure of CO2 is 3.8 atmospheres) is usually used to make the reaction proceed quickly. Excessive temperature is avoided because it produces unreactive, "dead-burned" lime.
