During this process, sodiunn hydroxide is converted te sediunt carbenate. Caicium oxide, aiso known as duicitiirtie, is then added to convert the sediurtt carbenate back to sodium hyrdroxide in order to use it again. in the process, caicium carbonate ih the term et iime mud is ebtained. Lime rriud is inainiy caicium carbenate mixed virith water tornting a siudge. "the iime med is then oaioined to retrieve caiciurn oxide in a iime recovery cyfcie.
