Sodium Bicarbonate By Amit International

Sodium Bicarbonate is a white crystalline powder that is commonly used in a wide range of applications. As a technical grade or industrial grade material sodium bicarbonate has a variety of uses in industries such as agriculture, water treatment, gold & platinum plating, leather tanning industry, dyes & intermediaries, detergents, treating wool and silk, fire extinguisher, ceramics, rubber & plastics, plastic moulding, oil well drilling fluids, pest control and paper and pulp industries and in many chemicals manufacturing.

Sodium Bicarbonate is used in a variety of applications, including:

Agriculture: It is used as a buffering agent and to adjust pH levels in soils.
Water and wastewater treatment. It is used to control pH levels in water treatment processes.
Chemical manufacturing: It is used as a reagent in the production of various chemicals.
A. The dry, Chemical-based fire extinguishers used in homes and business contains sodium bicarbonate to battle grease and electric fires.

Leather Tanning.
A. Complex plastic and polymer manufacturing use sodium bicarbonate as a purifier and catalyst.
It is used as a cleaning agent.
As a pest control to kill cockroaches and controlling fungal growth.
A. In a similar fashion of pulling odours from your refrigerator, sodium bicarbonate controls the sulfide odour from wastewater treatment plants. It also counters biological growth and, due to its high pH value, maintains the proper alkalinity in water as it's processed. Chemically, sodium bicarbonate binds with sulfur dioxide to desulphurized flue gas, a process that treats industrial gases before they are released into the atmosphere.

Sodium Bicarbonate is an essential component in various industrial applications. There is no doubt that many of our products today would not be possible without this versatile chemical compound at their core. It is inexpensive and widely available. A must for every home.
