Chlor-Alkalies

Caustic soda is used to maintain or increase pH. Increasing pH with caustic soda precipitates magnesium (Mg2+) and suppresses calcium (Ca2+) in high-hardness waters such as seawater, reduces corrosion, and neutralizes acid gases such as carbon dioxide (CO2) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S).

Soda ash light and soda ash dense, commonly referred to as sodium carbonate, is a white powder that has no odor and is utilized in numerous industrial and domestic applications. Its chemical formula is Na2CO3 and it belongs to the group of inorganic compounds known as alkalis.

Sodium bicarbonate reduces stomach acid. It is used as an antacid to treat heartburn, indigestion, and upset stomach. Sodium bicarbonate is a very quick-acting antacid.People commonly use sodium bicarbonate for indigestion. It is also used for stomach ulcers, athletic performance, kidney damage, dental plaque, tooth discoloration, and many other conditions.

It has universal applications in soaps and detergents, fertilizers, and industrial operations . It is also used in molten salts, dyes, pharmaceuticals, and photographic chemicals. KOH is commonly used in the food industry due to its excellent detergent and strong antimicrobial properties.

Sodium carbonate often called washing soda or soda ash is the most important of all basic heavy chemicals. Its great advantage over sodium hydroxide is that it is no-corrosive and is, therefore, safer to handle.
