<![CDATA[ The continuing demand for power has resulted in an increase in the
burning of fossil fuels. Many such fuels contain sulphur and the resultant emissions
in the atmosphere are the principle cause of acid rain. This can be devastating
killing trees, rendering lakes sterile and generally despoiling the environment.
Lime is used in processes designed to treat waste gas emissions significantly
reducing the effect of damaging pollutants in the atmosphere.
