This study analyzes Calcium Hydroxide (Slaked Lime) Production By Hydration Method, covering manufacturing, process flow, operating expenses, and financial considerations.
Last Updated: January, 2025
This report provides an extensive cost evaluation of calcium hydroxide or slaked lime production by hydration method. The production process is initiated by the chemical reaction between calcium oxide or quick lime and water. Initially, grounded powder of calcium oxide is gradually mixed with water resulting in an exothermic reaction producing a dry white powder of calcium hydroxide. It is then refined to obtain calcium hydroxide also known as slaked lime as the end product.
Calcium hydroxide, which is also known as slaked lime, is synthesized by using calcium oxide and water as its primary feedstock. The procurement of calcium hydroxide is determined by several factors. Some of the prime factors include the production cost of calcium hydroxide, which includes its feedstocks (such as calcium oxide and water), stability in its supply chain, market prices, transportation, and logistics, etc. Additionally, other factors such as the demand for calcium hydroxide across different market sectors (including food, chemical, and construction industries), trading activities, economic conditions, and governmental policies prominently influence its procurement in the global market.
