Quick ash, also known as quicklime, is a chemical compound with the formula CaO (calcium oxide). It is produced by heating limestone (calcium carbonate) in a process called calcination. Quick ash is highly reactive and is often used in various industrial applications, including steelmaking, water treatment, and soil stabilization. When it comes into contact with water, it undergoes an exothermic reaction to form calcium hydroxide, also known as slaked lime.
