Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] A question on rebreathers and scrubbers
Have you figured out how to granulate it? The method
I tried was to bake it in a tray and use a spray
bottle
to "spritz" water on the lime. I did this a few times
and stirred the lime each time before I did it. This
created nicely sized granules. I then baked one last
time to drive off the last of the water. Once you have
lime granules you can rebake without the granulating
hassle. Anyhow, the address is:
Warren D. Greenway
Decagon Devices
950 NE Nelson CT
Pullman WA, 99163
Note: Since Anthony has volunteered to run an isotherm
Decagon won't be charging anything for these first
tests.
