Food grade calcium oxide, commonly known as food-grade quicklime, is a high-purity alkaline compound produced via the thermal calcination of purified limestone. Its chemical formula is CaO with CAS No. 1305-78-8.
Strictly avoid direct human consumption due to severe caustic burns. Store in moisture-proof containers to prevent hydration into slaked lime. Personnel must wear full acid-resistant PPE including goggles and respirators during handling.
