)Calcium Propionate:

(A)Manufacturing Process:

Take Process Water in vessel. Add Propionic Acid . Then charge calcium Hydroxide slowly as Lotwise.
Then under stirring heat it for 3 hrs. If reaction completed. Then cool it and unload in Nutch Filter.
Then centrifuge and drying and pulverise. Calcium Propionate packed in bag.ML will be reused in
next batch.

(B)Chemical Reaction:

Ca(OH)2 + 2C2H5 COOH Ca (C 2H5COO)2 + 2 H2O
