Welcome to DANKALK K/S
Lime from a Danish limeworks with over 100 years of experience
For agriculture, industry and the environment both at home and abroad.
Magnesium lime and lime products with operational advice
Do you need lime from a lime plant that is exactly right for your production or plant? Lime affects pH, cleaning, reaction time and material function in plants, where the wrong type of lime can cause fluctuations in production, higher consumption or weaker process control.
At Dankalk K/S, we work closely with the raw material and deliver lime products to companies throughout Denmark, where the requirements for operation and function are concrete and measurable.
We have been quarrying lime in Denmark for over 100 years, and we actively use this experience when we advise on everything from magnesium lime to specially adapted lime-based products. Our deliveries go to power plants, wastewater treatment plants, biogas plants and industry, where even small variations in the properties of the lime can affect the result.
5 benefits of our lime
If you are faced with a task where lime must function stably in operation without ongoing adjustments, the choice of supplier is crucial. At Dankalk K/S, we take as our starting point how lime actually enters your process, so that you avoid making the wrong choice that affects production, purification or output.
- Own production from Danish lime works provides better quality control
- Over 100 years of experience with lime for concrete operational requirements
- Wide range of lime and chalk products
- Advice on lime type, dosage and effect in your process
- Deliveries to industry, environment and agriculture with a focus on operations
When lime is selected based on pH requirements, particle size and reaction time, the dosage becomes more precise and the plant experiences fewer fluctuations in daily operation. With lime from your own lime plant, you get a more uniform particle size, better control of dosage and fewer deviations between deliveries.
We build on experience – and know what works
Over 100 years of working with lime has taught us one thing: quality and knowledge make a difference. We use our experience every day to deliver solutions that work in practice.
We have a large and diverse product range
Whether it's agriculture, industry or the environment, we have products to match your needs. From agricultural lime to specialty products – we have what you need.
We never compromise on quality
Our production is certified according to international standards. This means you can count on us – both when it comes to the quality of the product and the way we work.
Lime as a basis for stable processes
In many plants, lime is used as an active part of the process, not just as a raw material. This applies, among other things, to flue gas cleaning, wastewater treatment and production, where lime products are directly involved in chemical reactions.
At Dankalk K/S, we take into account how the lime is actually used in your operation. For example, magnesium lime may be relevant in situations where the composition must support certain reactions or soil conditions, while other lime-based products are developed for technical processes in industry.
Consistent delivery means you avoid fluctuations in production. This is especially important in plants where even small variations can affect efficiency or emissions.
Lime products for the environment, energy and industry
Many companies use lime in contexts where environmental requirements, material requirements and operations are closely linked. In agriculture , agricultural lime and dolomite lime can be used to regulate pH and support the soil’s nutrient balance, while garden lime is relevant in smaller green areas where soil acidity affects growth and establishment.
In the environmental and energy sector, lime is used, among other things, to neutralize acids and reduce unwanted substances in flue gas and water. In biogas plants and wastewater treatment plants, lime products can be combined with activated carbon, ferric chloride , polymers and solutions against hydrogen sulfide or struvite , where the overall chemistry has an impact on cleaning, flow, odor and operational stability.
Chalk products from our lime works are also used in animal feed chalk and as raw material in industrial solutions such as betocarb and lime filler, where uniform particle size, purity and stable delivery affect the finished product. This provides a broad basis for choosing lime-based products that suit the specific process rather than a standard choice.
Lime selection that affects dosage and process control
Lime should be selected according to pH requirements, particle size, reaction time and the role the product plays in production, purification or material mixing.
In some processes, reaction time and particle size are crucial, while others require magnesium lime or lime-based products with a specific composition. At Dankalk K/S, we advise on dosage, product selection and lime work, so that the lime suits the operation, material requirements and process control.
With our own production from a Danish limeworks, we have control over raw materials, processing and delivery. This provides a better connection between the purity of the lime, particle size and the function the product should have in the plant.
How lime makes a difference in your operation
In some cases, lime is essential to avoid problems. Unstable pH conditions, accumulation of unwanted substances or ineffective cleaning can often be traced back to incorrect selection or application.
Correct use of lime-based products can reduce pH fluctuations, improve reaction time and reduce the need for extra dosing in the plant. This applies to production, environmental engineering and energy, where downtime or deviations can quickly have consequences.
Lime from a lime plant with control over the raw material provides a better basis for meeting requirements for reaction, purity, particle size and dosage.
