Hydrated Lime Powder (Calcium Hydroxide)
Achieve precise pH control with our High-Purity Hydrated Lime. An indispensable chemical for Effluent Treatment Plants (ETP), it effectively neutralizes acidic waste, precipitates heavy metals, and aids in flocculation to ensure environmentally safe discharge.
The Foundation of Acidic Waste Treatment
Industrial processes often generate acidic effluent that can damage ETP infrastructure and violate pollution norms. Our Industrial Grade Lime offers a cost-effective solution for large-scale neutralization. Its alkaline properties not only balance pH but also react with dissolved metals to form insoluble hydroxides for easy filtration.
- High Chemical Reactivity for Faster Neutralization
- Assists in Phosphorus and Heavy Metal Removal
- Improves Sludge Dewatering and Stability
- Inhibits Bacterial Odours in Sewage Treatment
- Low Grit Content to Protect Dosing Pumps
- Consistent Particle Size for Uniform Slurry Preparation

Bulk Hydrated Lime for Industrial ETP
Ensure reliable pH stabilization and heavy metal removal. Our lime powder is processed for high reactivity and minimum residue in industrial applications across Baddi.
Tara Enterprises is a prominent supplier of Hydrated Lime in Baddi, serving the chemical, textile, and pharmaceutical manufacturing hubs. In industrial wastewater treatment, lime is the most cost-efficient alkali for neutralizing acids like sulfuric and hydrochloric acid that are common in pickling and synthesis processes.
For sludge management, our Calcium Hydroxide acts as a chemical conditioner, improving the porosity of the sludge and making mechanical dewatering via filter press significantly more effective.
Metals Precipitation
Effectively precipitates lead, copper, and zinc as insoluble hydroxides.
Sludge Stability
Lime treatment reduces biological activity, controlling odors and pathogens.
Equipment Protection
Neutralizing acidic waste prevents corrosion of ETP tanks and piping.
Consistent Purity
Ensures predictable dosing rates and prevents over-consumption of chemicals.
Whether you are performing Acidic Neutralization or Water Softening (Lime-Soda Process), we provide the bulk capacity and consistent quality needed to keep your plant in compliance with Himachal Pradesh Pollution Control Board norms.

What is Hydrated Lime used for in water treatment?
Its primary use is pH adjustment (raising pH of acidic water). It is also used to precipitate dissolved metals, soften hard water, and stabilize sludge for easier disposal.
How is Hydrated Lime different from Quick Lime?
Quick Lime (CaO) is highly reactive and generates significant heat when mixed with water. Hydrated Lime (Ca(OH)2) is Quick Lime that has already been 'slaked' with water, making it a dry powder that is safer and easier to handle for dosing.
Why use Lime instead of Caustic Soda for neutralization?
While Caustic Soda (Sodium Hydroxide) is a stronger base, Lime is significantly more cost-effective for high-volume treatment. Lime also aids in flocculation and metal removal, which Caustic Soda does not do as effectively.
Does Lime Powder have a shelf life?
Lime is stable but will slowly absorb CO2 from the air (carbonation), which reduces its neutralizing power over time. It should be stored in a dry area and used within 6-12 months for best results.
