cao is almost nessasary for making soda lime , 
and without soda lime ,m decarboxylation reaction cannot take place ., 
frst of all u need to treat soda lime with sodium acetate , after that the decarboxylation reaction will take place . 
soda lime is nessasary for absorbing the water vapour from the substances . 
HOPE IT CLEARS 
ALL THE BEST ..
