Sodium Bicarbonate Industrial Grade

Introduction

Sodium Bicarbonate industrial (technical) grade is used for purifying, processing, and synthesizing polymers and chemicals. Increasing product consumption in chemical production, owing to its alkaline nature and favorable reactivity properties, is projected to be a significant factor driving the sodium bicarbonate market over the forecast period.

Storage and Precaution

  • Sodium Bicarbonate should be stored in a cool, dry place and far away from any source of heat. It begins to decompose slowly at 50’C, releasing carbon dioxide gas.
  • The bags should not be stacked more than 8 layers in height. A suitable distance from external surfaces should be maintained during rainy seasons.
  • It is liable to lumping if exposed to dampness or subjected to high pressure.
  • The storing place should be free of objectionable odors, as the product is extremely likely to pick up odors.
  • Wash thoroughly after handling. Minimize dust generation and accumulation. Avoid breathing dust, vapor, mist or gas. Avoid breathing vapors from heated material. Avoid contact with skin and eyes.

Application

    Sodium bicarbonate is used throughout industry, sodium bicarbonate buffers neutralize, provide a source of CO2, and act as a catalyst in multiple processes. 

  1. Fire extinguishers use sodium bicarbonate to smother the flames. Dry chemical extinguishers often contain a fine grade of sodium bicarbonate. The sodium bicarbonate decomposes in the high temperatures and releases carbon dioxide. The carbon dioxide, in turn, reduces the oxygen supply available to the fire, eliminating it.
  2. Sodium bicarbonate is a vital part of flue gas treatment processes. Dry gas scrubbers use a fine grade of sodium bicarbonate to react with acidic and sulfur pollutants. Sodium bicarbonate is one of the most efficient dry sorbents for flue gas treatment.
  3. In the drilling industry, sodium bicarbonate is used to chemically treat drilling mud when it becomes contaminated with calcium ions from cement or lime. Sodium bicarbonate reacts with calcium ions to produce an inert calcium precipitate that can be removed from the system.
