Investigation on Smoke Suppression Mechanism of Hydrated Lime in Asphalt Combustion by Kai Zhu, Yunhe Wang, Qi Zhou, Daquan Tang, Lingzhu Gu, Ke Wu

“…In addition, hydrated lime is alkaline and can thus neutralize acidic gases such as SO2 and reduce the toxicity of gaseous products. With the addition of 40 wt.% hydrated lime, the total smoke release and the CO release rate both decrease by more than 20% relative to the addition of the same amount of limestone fillers and decrease by more than 10% relative to the addition of the same amount of magnesium hydroxide flame retardant.…”
