Calcium chloride is an inorganic compound, a salt with the chemical formula CaCl2. It is a white coloured crystalline solid at room temperature, and it is highly soluble in water. It can be created by neutralising hydrochloric acid with calcium hydroxide.
Calcium chloride is commonly encountered as a hydrated solid with generic formula CaCl2(H2O)x, where x = 0, 1, 2, 4, and 6. These compounds are mainly used for de-icing and dust control. Because the anhydrous salt is hydroscopic and deliquescent, it is used as a desiccant. Calcium chloride (liquid or dry)—reduces formation damage caused by solids or clay swelling, clay dispersion, or clay and solids migration

APPLICATION
1- Oil Field:
-
Additive to oil well completion fluids ----- Increases density
-
Cementing finished oil wells ----- Accelerates set of cement
-
Drilling mud additive ------- Reduces shale swelling
-
Drying petroleum fractions ------ Absorbs water
2- Automotive & Aluminum
Waste Water Treatment = Removes Fluorides, Phosphates, Heavy Metals and oily wastes
3- Paper manufacture
-
Increases web strength of corrugating media
-
De-Inking
-
Improves dye retention
4- Food
Cheese, brining, beer = Source of Calcium
5- Mining
Dustproofing and freeze-resisting ore and coal = Retains moisture; lowers freezing point of water
6- Drying air and gases
Direct drying compound = Removes moisture by hygroscopicity
