What Is Spent LimeWhat Is Spent Lime
• Calcium Carbonate Limestone Is Heated And Injected Into The Sugar Purification Process
• Captures and Absorbs The Impurities In The Juice
• By-Product Left Behind Is Spent Lime
• American Crystal Sugar Produces 350,000 Dry Tons Of Spent Lime Annually

What’s In Factory LimeWhat’s In Factory Lime• Perhaps Some Impurities In The Juice Will Be
Determined By Where The Sugarbeet Was Grown?• Maybe Variability Among Processing Plants
• Test This Hypothesis:
• Collected Factory Lime From All 7 Processing Plants• Collected 3 Times During The Processing Season
• Nov 18, 2004; Jan 19, 2005; And Mar 17, 2005• Collected 3 Subsamples• Dried Factory Lime • Analyzed For Ca, Mg, K, Na, N, And P
