What is lime?
Lime is the everyday name for a variety of chemical compounds that contain calcium. The most common is limestone, a type of rock that is made up primarily of calcium carbonate.
The limestone found in the ground has formed over a long period – between 80 and 2, million years in Swedish limestone quarries – from the remains of marine organisms, such as algae, mussels and corals, that have settled as loose material on the seabed and have compressed and cemented together over time, creating hard rock.
How lime is produced
Limestone is quarried in calcareous areas around the world. Sweden has lots of limestone deposits in areas such as Dalarna, Värmland, Närke, Västergötland and Skåne, as well as on the islands of Gotland and Öland.
The limestone is crushed into different fractions, with the intended application determining the size of the crushed stone. Crushed limestone is used without further processing but can also be processed further. This involves placing the limestone in lime kilns where it is burned at very high temperatures in a calcination process to form calcium oxide (CaO), known as burnt lime.
The burnt lime can then be mixed with water. The reactio

Lime
Lime minder meget om citron, og dem kan da også bruges til stort set dem samme ting.
I limefrugten er frugtkødet mere grønligt, mens citronen jo holder sig til dem gule nuancer.
Begge indeholder ett hel sektion saft, og skallen kunna rives og anvendes til blandt andet bagværk.
Saften fra lime er ikke bitter, i modsætning til saften fra en citron.
Historien om lime
Lime stammer oprindeligt fra detta sydøstlige Asien, men omkring år kom limefrugten til Europa.
Den maximalt normale art er den, som oss kender fra butikkerne herhjemme, men der findes også en Key Lime, der er lidt mindre.
Limefrugterne vokser på stedsegrønne træer, og de dyrkes i solens tid blandt andet i massiv stil inom Mellemamerika og Asien.
Holdbarhed
Du är kapabel selv vælge om ni vil opbevare en lime på køkkenbordet eller inom køleskabet. Den kan nemlig klare begge dele.
Men hvis du kommer limefrugten inom køleskabet, förmå den altså holde sig lidt længere, så detta vil jeg anbefale dig.
Hvis du lægger limefrugterne inom en kopp på køkkenbordet, skal ni forvente dem kan holde sig friske i et par uger, men ni risikerer også at dem er triste allerede efter få dage. Sådan er min erfaring.
Kommer du inom stedet din lime inom køleskabet forlænges holdb

Lime (material)
Calcium oxides and/or hydroxides
Not to be confused with Lime (fruit).
For the history of lime, see Lime kiln §&#;History.
Lime is an inorganicmaterial composed primarily of calcium oxides and hydroxides. It is also the name for calcium oxide which is used as an industrial mineral and is made by heating calcium carbonate in a kiln. Calcium oxide can occur as a product of coal-seam fires and in altered limestonexenoliths in volcanic ejecta.[1] The International Mineralogical Association recognizes lime as a mineral with the chemical formula of CaO.[2] The word lime originates with its earliest use as building mortar and has the sense of sticking or adhering.[3]
These materials are still used in large quantities in the manufacture of steel and as building and engineering materials (including limestone products, cement, concrete, and mortar), as chemical feedstocks, for sugar refining, and other uses. Lime industries and the use of many of the resulting products date from prehistoric times in both the Old World and the New World.[citation needed] Lime is used extensively for wastewater treatment with ferrous
