Method for the preparation of finely divided calcium hydroxide, where calcium oxide is comminuted in an impact disintegrator into which in addition to the calcium hydroxide a small amount of water is led to wet the particles obtained and to bind the dust. The calcium oxide powder is led to a conveyor being in connection with the impact disintegrator and operating as a pre-quencher, to which conveyer water is added and where the material is subjected to a kneading effect. The material which is a mixture of calcium oxide and calcium hydroxide is led from the conveyor to a cistern operating as post-quencher, to which cistern the remaining portion of the total water amount required for quenching is added. The amount of water added to the impact disintegrator and to the pre-quencher is altogether 20 . . . 50% of the total amount of water required for quenching, preferably about 1/3 of the total amount of water required for quenching, and the amount of water added to the post-quencher is 80 . . . 50% of the total amount of water required for quenching, preferably about 2/3 of the total amount of water required for quenching. |
