INTRODUCTION

Burnt Lime also called as quick lime or unslaked lime is made out of lime stone deposits which are wide spread throughout the country. The burnt lime is extensively used as a mortar in the construction of building by mixing in with suitable proportion of sand and surkhee of burnt clay as aggregate. It is also used for white washing of houses and building. Iron and steel plants, and foundries use lime as a fluxing agent in considerable quantity. Some drugs and pharmaceuticals, paper industry pesticides formulations and other chemical processing industries are using the unslacked lime.

MARKET POTENTIAL
There is rapid development taking place in the construction of buildings in rural and urban areas housing development program and industrialization activities throughout the country, burnt lime has a good demand. The main application of lime, used as a mortar in the construction of building by mixing it in suitable ratio with sand and surkhee of burnt clay, white washing of house and building, iron and steel industries, fluxing agent in foundries, drugs paper and pharmaceuticals industries, some chemical industries are also using the lime as a chemical processing agent. The demand for this product is also increasing day-by-day. In the view of this, there is a very good scope for setting up some new units.

BASIS AND PRESUMPTIONS
i. The proposed unit will carry out lime calcinations about 30 Tonne/day (30 TPD), on single shifts basis, having 300 working days in a year.
ii. Annual expenses such as salary and wages other contingent expenses have been calculated for 12 months.
iii. It is expected that the unit will achieve its full capacity during the first year of operation itself.
iv. The wages proposed in this profile are per the prevailing wages practice. The staff and labour have been taken on the basis of minimum applicable.
v. Normal rate of interest of about 14% is considered both for recurring and non-recurring investment.
vi. Margin money is generally @10-25% and however it varies according to the location and the project and the rules of financial institutions.
vii. The normal operative period it estimated to be more than 15 years considering the present level Technology. The usual repayment period of loan is about three years.
viii. The term loan varies from one financial institution to another and general minimum gestation period is 6 months and it could be extended upto two years. Maximum period for repayment of loan would be less than four years including gestation period.
ix. The production capacity of the plant and machinery would be 60% in the first year, 70% in the second year and 80% in the third year respectively.
x. The land value and construction cost has been taken on average basis, as it varies from place to place.
xi. The cost of machinery and equipment as proposed in the project profile may vary from place to place consulting the local machinery suppliers and traders and varies from place to place at the time of preparation of this project.

TECHNICAL ASPECTS
Process of Manufacture
The limestone mined from quarry or rivers should be free from all defects and impurities, once washed and cleaned again for removal of dust particles. These stone blocks are crushed manually or by jaw crusher in sizes of 3 to 6 inches. Oil fired vertical shaft kiln (VSK) refractory lining inside portion having about 33 metre conical vertical chimney, is used for the firing or calcinations of lime stone at a temperature of about 900 Degree C. The chimney of VSK is so arranged that the speed of exhaust gases and fumes in the chimney may travel @ 9 to 12 m/sec. The diameter of chimney is so calculated that the lower/bottom portion of chimney is one third of the total stack of chimney. Skip bucket with rope, which is driven by electric motor, is arranged for loading of stone pieces for firing of calcination. These stone pieces are loaded from the top of kiln, this process is done regularly as per the requirement of stone calcinations. A cyclone or dust catcher is also arranged with a scrubber which collect about 50 to 80% dust particles and removed with scrubber. Approx. 4 kg. 6 kg. sludge/hr. is removed by this process which can be discharged to land fill. The firing is done with the help of burner. The firing is initiated from the bottom section of kiln and after a suitable interval the calcined lime is unloaded through the outlets provided at the bottom section of kiln. Property calcined lime is sorted out in different grades like A, B and C grade. Semi burnt lime stones are charged again in the kiln for calcinations. The dust, clinkers ash and other harmful materials are removed from the finished product properly sorted lime is packed and stored for sale.

Quality Control and Standards
The Bureau of Indian Standards has formulated and published the following specifications for the necessary guidance and maintenance for the quantity of different types of lime product.
IS 1861 : 1961 Lime in vertical mixed feed type kilns and its manufacture
IS 712: 1973 Methods of testing for building lime.
IS 1624 : 1974 Fields testing and building lime and mortars.

Production Capacity (per annum)
The production capacity envisaged in this project is about 8,000 MT, valued at Rs. 1,35,38,428 per annum.
Motive Power
Approximate 36000 KWH per annum power will be required.

Pollution Control
The project does not create any noise or water pollution, proper dust collector or cyclones arranged with a dust scrubber system to control 50% to 80% dust. The oil fired vertical shaft kiln having 33 meters heights of removes all types of fuel gases and smokes very easily and does not create any dust/air pollution. However, necessary clearance of NOC is to be obtained from the state pollution Control Board. Eye goggles and hand gloves may be used during the working hours.

Energy Conservation
Properly insulated and refractory lined furnace fuel on account of energy conservation. The oil fired furnace has better combustion control facilities which helps in saving energy from 30% to 40% when compared to conventional coal fired shaft furnaces.
i) Machinery and equipments should be lubricated properly at regular intervals as per the schedule.
ii) All the plugs may be kept off, when the electricity is not required.
iii) The belts on pullies may be tightened properly during the working process.
iv) The layout of the plant should be maintained systematically.
