Global Calcium Oxide Market 2017-2021

Overview of the global calcium oxide market

Market research analysts at Technavio predict that the global calcium oxide market will grow steadily at a CAGR of close to 5% by 2021. The use of calcium oxide for animal waste treatment is cost-effective and helps control odor and maintain pH. Lime calcium oxide prevents pathogens by monitoring the environment mandatory for bacterial growth. Additionally, calcium oxide also increases the temperature of the waste to approximately 158°F which helps in drying the solid waste faster and provides pasteurization. This will result in an increase in the usage of calcium oxide for animal waste treatment, which will be one of the primary factors that will have a positive impact on the growth of the quicklime market.

One of the latest trends that will gain traction in the calcium oxide market in the coming years is the increase in modernization of calcium oxide production plants in Europe. The calcium oxide market in Europe is undergoing modernization of plants in terms of adjusting the fuel mix to lower carbon emissions. The modernization of plants increases the efficiency of engines and other technical progress, thereby reducing carbon emission. For instance, optimized grinding and cooling lead to energy-efficiency gains.

Competitive landscape and key vendors

The calcium oxide market appears to be highly fragmented and the large players in the commercial market are vertically integrated with their limestone assets. Since proximity to customers is one of the key factors that play a significant role in the growth of the vendors, the calcium oxide market is highly localized and regionalized. Product pricing, the consistency of the product, and packaging are some of the other factors that impact vendor growth in the quicklime market.

The leading vendors in the market are -

• Carmeuse
