2 U.S. LIME MARKET ANALYSIS
- U.S. Lime Market, By Product Type (Quick Lime,
Hydrated Lime), By Application (Cement
Manufacturing, Metal Manufacturing, Chemical
(Water Treatment, Flue Gas, Others), Fertilizer,
Pulp Paper, Others), and By Region (Northeast,
Midwest, South, Western) - Size, Share, Outlook,
and Opportunity Analysis, 2020 2027
3Lime is a calcium compound in the wastewater
treatment process and is also used on the steel
industry for removing which consists of calcium
oxide and calcium hydroxide. It has a wide range
of application across construction, chemical,
environmental, and metallurgical application. It
is majorly used the impurities. Moreover, it is
also used in the construction industry in the
road, buildings, and dams where it is used to

projected to surpass US 3.7 billion by the end
of 2027, in terms of revenue, growing at CAGR of
3.7 during the forecast period (2020 to 2027).
- Drivers
- Growing demand for lime in the production of
precipitated calcium carbonate is expected to
serve as a major driving factor for the market of
U.S. lime. Precipitated calcium carbonate has a
wide range of application which includes paper,
plastic, paint, rubber, and ink. Moreover,
precipitate calcium carbonate is also used in the
production of calcium-based antacid formulation
and multi-vitamin tablets due to its high content
of calcium. - Growth in the construction industry in the U.S.
is propelling the market growth of lime in the
region. According to the Associated General
Contractors of America, construction industry is
a major contributor to the U.S. economy. The

manufacturer especially among the major players
and this is expected to hinder the market growth
of lime. Lime cannot be stored for a longer time
because lime changes its chemical and physical
characteristics very easily when it comes in
contact with moisture and carbon dioxide which
makes it unsuitable for use. - Limited production of lime due to harsh weather
conditions is expected to hinder the market
growth of the U.S. lime. Limited production of
lime is a major factor expected to restrict the
market growth of lime over the forecast period.

contain harmful chemicals and other product which
are require to be treated before it dispose of in
the environment. Thus, the growing demand for
lime from the wastewater treatment industry is
expected to augment the market growth. - The growing use of precipitated calcium carbonate
(PCC) in the polymer and pulp paper industry is
another major trend expected to foster market
growth. Moreover, manufacturers are focusing on
introducing fine grade lime in order to meet the
rising demand from end-use industries in the
region is expected to accelerate the market
growth of the U.S. lime over the forecast period

market share in terms of revenue, followed by
metal and cement, respectively - Regulations
- The Lime Maximum Achievable Control Technology
(MACT) Rules, 2002 - In the United States, commonly used fuel for the
production of lime is coal, followed by the coke.
Emissions of gases during the combustion of coal
and other fuels make the lime production to come
under the regulatory scrutiny of the Clean Air
Act (CAA). - The governing authorities and the U.S
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has
introduced regulations on the lime manufacturers
to limit the hazardous and harmful air pollutants
from the lime operating plants. These

Control Technology (MACT) rules, are aimed to
target emissions of hydrochloric acid,
particulate matter, and the metallic hazardous
air pollutants. - U.S. lime Market - Impact of Coronavirus
