  • For water treatment. Hydrated lime is used for water treatment either to remove impurities by separating dense media (coagulation, flocculation, precipitation) as well as for pH correction in processes that make the environment acidic, as well as favoring any neutralization process. Another application linked to the same sector is the sanitization of the sludge resulting from the purification process and elimination of its odors.
  • In agriculture and food. In the preservation of fruits and vegetables and dairy facilities. In construction.
  • In the preparation of mortars it provides workability, lightness and breathability. Due to its plasticity, it absorbs certain structural deformations.
