This statistic was assembled using several editions of the report.
In 2024, the apparent consumption of lime in the United States amounted to an estimated ** million metric tons, the same figure reported one year earlier. Lime is an inorganic material that is mainly comprised of oxides, carbonates, and hydroxides.
