Abstract

See full text

A lime pellet for use in asphalt applications is prepared to include lime fines and an asphalt-compatible binder. The pellet is characterized as having a rigid structure with a dimension greater than about 1.5 mm and being compatible with a hot mix asphalt so as to dissolve in liquid asphalt. The pellet is manufactured by mixing the lime fines with the asphalt-compatible binder and forming pellets therefrom. A benefit of the present method is the elimination of steps that cost time and money because limestone can be converted to quicklime, the quicklime is hydrated, and the pellet is formed in a continuous process or in a single system. The pellets are useful for conditioning an end product of hot mix asphalt during the manufacture of such an asphalt.
