PROCESS FOR THE MANUFACTURE OF CHEMICAL ABSORBENTS, AND CHEMICAL ABSORBENT FORMULATIONS

摘要

A soda lime formulation comprises calcium hydroxide in admixture with sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide and water, and further comprises a zeolite such as sodium aluminium silicate. The formulation has improved mechanical strength and may be prepared in granular form by mixing its constituents with water to form a paste and passing the paste between a pair of rollers having hemispherical depressions therein.
