Lemma
slaking
The reaction of quicklime with water. During the process, hydroxides of calcium (and magnesium) are formed by the action of water on the oxides of the quicklime. Traditionally, this process was carried out in pits and the slaked lime was left to mature for several months, or even years. Ashurst (1983). [J. Cassar, R. de Angelis]
