Hydrated lime is a result of a hydration process in which quicklime (calcium oxide) is processed. Also referred to as calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2), this chemical compound has unique chemical properties. It is available in the form of white, odorless, and fine powder that is sparingly soluble in water. In the construction sector, hydrated lime finds application in mortars and plasters, thereby improving their workability, durability, and water retention characteristics. It is utilized within water treatment processes to regulate pH levels and control acidity in wastewater treatment facilities. Hydrated lime is also used in agriculture, chemical, paper, and food industries.
