Hydrated Lime (Calcium Hydroxide) – Complete Industrial Guide

Hydrated Lime, also known as Calcium Hydroxide (Ca(OH)₂) or Slaked Lime, is a fine, white, free-flowing inorganic powder widely used across construction, agriculture, water treatment, food processing, and chemical industries. Due to its strong alkaline nature and high purity, hydrated lime plays a critical role in neutralization, stabilization, and purification processes.

What is Hydrated Lime?

Hydrated lime is produced by adding controlled amounts of water to quicklime (calcium oxide) through a process called slaking. This reaction converts quicklime into calcium hydroxide, resulting in a safer, stable, and easy-to-handle powder suitable for industrial applications.


How Hydrated Lime is Manufactured

Hydrated lime is manufactured in advanced hydration plants where quicklime reacts with water under controlled conditions. This ensures uniform particle size, consistent chemical composition, and high reactivity. Shaurya Minerals manufactures hydrated lime in state-of-the-art facilities, delivering consistent quality across all grades.

Key Properties of Hydrated Lime

  • Chemical Formula: Ca(OH)₂

Applications of Hydrated Lime 

  • Building: Incorporated into mortar, plaster, and cement to serve as a cohesive agent.
  • Nature: Applied in water and sewage purification to balance acidity and eliminate contaminants.
  • Farming: Sprayed onto the earth to decrease acid levels and supply plants with calcium.
  • Chemical Production: Used to create different substances like calcium stearate and calcium hypochlorite.
  • Food Sector: Functions as a food additive (E526) to make raw juice from sugarcane or sugar beets clearer during the sugar refining.
