Soda ash has diverse industrial applications, most notably in the manufacturing of glass, where it lowers silica’s melting point.
It is also a key component in detergents, water softening, and various chemical production processes, creating compounds like sodium bicarbonate and sodium silicate. Other uses include paper manufacturing, metallurgy, food and beverage production, and environmental applications like flue gas desulfurization and water treatment.
Minerals Marketing supply the following grades of soda ash to clients:
