Calcium carbonate is instrumental in water treatment facilities. It corrects the pH of acidic water, making it safe for consumption and preventing pipe corrosion. It also facilitates the removal of lead and other heavy metals from water.

In paper manufacturing, calcium carbonate is used both as a filler inside the paper pulp and as a coating on the surface. Its addition improves the brightness and opacity of the paper, which is essential for printing and writing quality.

Similar to limestone, calcium carbonate is a key component in the construction industry, where it is used as a building material and as an aggregate in concrete. Marble, a metamorphosed form of calcium carbonate, is prized for its use in sculptures, architecture, and as a dimension stone.
