Calcium hydroxide is an inorganic compound that is used in the treatment of drinking water. It is added to water distribution systems to adjust its pH, making it neutral or slightly alkaline range. It reduces the corrosivity of the water, protects pipes and infrastructure from damage, and minimizes the leaching of harmful metals like lead and copper. It also works as a flocculant that causes suspended particles and impurities to aggregate and settle out of the water.
It is utilized in agriculture for soil amendment to neutralize acidic soils and improve nutrient availability and crop yields. It works as a fungicide and bactericide that provides pest and disease control in plants. It is used in root canal treatments, pulp capping, and apexification because of its antibacterial properties and ability to stimulate hard tissue formation. It is employed in the paper industry for pulping wood, in leather processing for removing hair and fats from hides, and in the production of paints, coatings, rubber, and plastics as a filler and pH regulator.

Feedstock for Calcium Hydroxide
The production of calcium hydroxide uses calcium oxide as the major feedstock. The changes in the market dynamics of these raw materials affect its manufacturing.
The procurement of calcium oxide is influenced by factors like raw material availability, production technology, market demand, regulatory and environmental compliance, etc. The availability and quality of limestone (changes in reserves, mining operations, and transportation costs impact its sourcing) can directly affect its pricing and supply stability. Its production costs are also affected by energy prices, labor expenses, and advancements in manufacturing technologies like more efficient calcination processes.
The changes in its demand in construction, metallurgy, pulp and paper, water treatment, agriculture, environmental applications, food industry, chemical industry, petroleum industry, cement production, power production, etc., affect its availability. It is required to meet strict exposure limits, hazard labeling, PPE requirements, and dust control under regulations like OSHA and REACH, with safe handling and environmental protection standards that add to its procurement costs.
Market Drivers for Calcium Hydroxide
The market for calcium hydroxide is driven by its usage in wastewater treatment. Its utilization in water purification, softening, and neutralization processes contributes to its market growth. Its use in the food and beverage industry makes it popular as an additive and processing aid. Its utilization in the pulp and paper sector for chemical recovery and bleaching processes boosts its demand. Also, its usage in the paints, coatings, rubber, and plastics industries further contributes to its demand. Its Asia-Pacific market is fueled by expanding construction activities and investments in water and wastewater treatment. In North America and Europe, the market is driven by mature construction industries, strict environmental regulations, and a focus on water treatment and emission control. Also, established industrial bases and a strong emphasis on sustainability further support its market in these regions.
The CAPEX for the calcium hydroxide production plant involves a quicklime storage silo, screw feeders, rotary valves, and bucket elevators. It also includes the costs of a lime hydrator or hydration reactor, agitators or paddle mixers, a heat recovery system, and a rotary or flash dryer. Pulverizer, hammer mill, ball mill, air classifier or cyclone separator, product silo, bagging machine, along with water pumping system, and PLC or SCADA-based automation controls are also covered under CAPEX. Its OPEX covers recurring costs like costs of raw materials, along with electricity for running mixers, conveyors, pumps, and dryers. It also includes wages for operators, maintenance technicians, and quality control staff and the cost of maintenance that involves parts and servicing for equipment. Packaging materials, warehouse storage, and regular testing for product quality also add to operational costs.
Manufacturing Process
This report comprises a thorough value chain evaluation for Calcium Hydroxide manufacturing and consists of an in-depth production cost analysis revolving around industrial Calcium Hydroxide manufacturing.
- From Calcium Oxide: The feedstock for this process includes calcium oxide.
The manufacturing process of calcium hydroxide starts with mixing finely ground calcium oxide into water. The calcium oxide reacts vigorously, leading to an exothermic reaction that transforms it into calcium hydroxide. Finally, the product is separated and dried to get pure calcium hydroxide as the final product.
Properties of Calcium Hydroxide
Calcium hydroxide has the molecular formula of Ca(OH)2 and a molecular formula of 74.09 g/mol. It is a white, odorless powder or appears as colorless crystals in its pure form. It has a hexagonal crystal structure with a density of about 2.21–2.24 g/cm3. Its melting point is around 580 degree Celsius, and it is slightly soluble in water. It forms a viscous paste known as lime putty when mixed with water. It is highly alkaline, with a pH of around 12.4. It is a strong base and reacts readily with acids to form salts and water. It also reacts with carbon dioxide in the air to form calcium carbonate. It dissociates in solution to release hydroxide ions, which makes the solution strongly alkaline. It can react with certain metals like aluminium and ammonium salts to release ammonia gas. It is stable under normal conditions but must be handled with care, as contact with skin can cause irritation or chemical burns.
