Lime, which is a frequently used activating agent of fly ash (FA), has two main states: slaked lime and quick lime. We studied the effects of slaked lime and quick lime on activating FA, and discussed their kinetics. ...Lime, which is a frequently used activating agent of fly ash (FA), has two main states: slaked lime and quick lime. We studied the effects of slaked lime and quick lime on activating FA, and discussed their kinetics. The results show that slaked lime is more beneficial for activating FA than quick lime given the condition of equivalent CaO amount. The use of slaked lime has superiority in technology and economy on activating FA. Theoretical analysis revealed that the kinetic constant of the activation reaction using slaked lime is higher than using quick lime, credited to the better volume stability and fineness, and smaller water demand of slaked lime.展开更多
