Applications of Calcium Chloride

Calcium chloride has numerous applications, such as:

●????Calcium chloride has applications as additives in plastics, wastewater treatment plants and in blast furnaces to improve the process. Calcium chloride is used as a water treatment agent. While it is also used in bottled water, it is mainly used in treating wastewater to remove undesired impurities. Calcium is an important determinant of water hardness and pH stabilizer, giving the water an elevated taste.

?●????In swimming pools and other situations where water is being held in concrete, calcium chloride is commonly used as an additive to soft water as the calcium leaches into the concrete, preventing erosion.

?●????In petroleum, metalworking, laundry, textile, and food processing industries, calcium chloride is used in oily waste streams. This makes oil droplets float to the surface, and in the final stage, it is removed through skimming.

?●????It is used as a de-icer to prevent ice formation on road surfaces. Calcium chloride is also used in concrete mixing because not only does it reduce the effects of moisture on the mix, but it also speeds up the setting of the concrete.

?●????In aquariums, it is used as an introducer of bioavailable calcium for calcium carbonate-shelled animals such as mollusks and cnidarians.

?●????It also has use in canned vegetables and producing a caviar substitute from vegetables or fruit juices. It can depress freezing levels in liquids and semi-solids, making it useful in creating cold foods like ice cream.

●????It is used as an electrolyte in sports drinks and other beverages, helping your body maintain fluid through activities and proper muscle and nerve functioning.?It also helps to prevent muscle spasms and maintain bone health.

●????It has applications as a buffering and anti-moisture agent in the medical industry. It helps lower blood pressure as well as treat acid burns.?

●????Calcium chloride is also used in pickles to add a salty taste. Moreover, it also has use in brewing beer as well as cheesemaking.

●????Calcium chloride also plays a role in plant growth. Studies have shown calcium breaks down easily in water, forming calcium and chloride ions. While calcium helps in plant growth, chloride is a vital plant micronutrient and plays an important role in photosynthesis.?

●????In fire extinguishers, it is used as an additive.?

Precaution: The stainless steel extinguisher shall be destroyed once it expires. It shall not be tested nor replaced as it may pose a threat.?
