Packing
Primarily used as a dairy cow feed supplement, the buffering capability of Natural Soda's pure and natural feed grade sodium bicarbonate helps stabilize rumen pH by reducing acidic conditions.
Improves calcium absorption and eggshell quality of laying hens during peak production.
This grade is intended for general applications like chemical synthesis, dyes, leather, fire extinguishers, water treatment, plastic molding, flue gas treatment & in the drilling industry, sodium bicarbonate is used to chemically treat drilling mud when it becomes contaminated with calcium ions from cement or lime.
It is NOT intended for applications, directly or indirectly, related to human consumption.
