Chemtex Sodium Bicarbonate is a high-purity, food-grade sodium bicarbonate powder used in RO water post-treatment to correct low pH and restore alkalinity.
It improves the taste, balance, and stability of RO-treated water, removing flat or slightly acidic characteristics and making the water smoother and more pleasant for drinking.

💧 Key Benefits

  • Raises pH and alkalinity of RO-treated water
  • Improves taste by reducing flat and acidic notes
  • Provides stable buffering action
  • Enhances smooth mouthfeel in low-TDS water
  • Fully water-soluble and easy to dose
  • Safe for drinking water applications

📌 Technical Properties

  • Grade: Food Grade
  • Form: White crystalline powder
  • Solubility: Fully soluble in water
  • Purity Level: High purity (≥ 99.5%)
  • pH Effect: Increases alkalinity of treated water
  • Primary Function: pH & taste balancing
  • Dosing Type: Powder (pre-dissolved before dosing)

🚰 Usage

  • Used in RO post-treatment remineralization systems
  • Typical dosing range: 5–20 ppm, depending on target pH and taste
  • Can be dosed manually or via chemical dosing pumps

🌊 Applications

  • Domestic RO systems
  • Commercial & institutional RO plants
  • Packaged drinking water units
  • RO water pH and taste correction
  • General food-grade water treatment

🛡️ Safety & Handling

  • Store in a cool, dry place away from moisture
  • Keep container tightly sealed to prevent caking
  • Avoid contact with strong acids
  • Use basic PPE such as gloves and dust mask during handling

❓ How To Use

  1. Prepare Solution: Dissolve the required quantity of sodium bicarbonate in clean RO permeate water to make a dosing solution.
  2. Install Dosing System: Use a dosing pump or dosing tank connected to the post-RO line for accurate and controlled addition.
  3. Set Dosage: Typical dosing depends on desired pH and alkalinity, usually adjusted based on water analysis.
  4. Continuous Dosing: Dose continuously during system operation to maintain stable water chemistry.
  5. Monitor Output: Check pH and TDS levels regularly to avoid overdosing.

⚙️ How It Works

  • Dissociation in Water: When added to water, sodium bicarbonate dissolves into sodium (Na⁺) and bicarbonate (HCO₃⁻) ions.
  • pH Neutralization Mechanism: The bicarbonate ions react with free hydrogen ions (H⁺) present in acidic water, reducing acidity and increasing pH.
  • Buffering Action: Bicarbonate acts as a buffer, meaning it resists sudden changes in pH even when water conditions fluctuate.
  • Alkalinity Formation: It increases total alkalinity, which stabilizes water chemistry and prevents aggressive behavior of RO water.
  • System Protection: Stable pH and alkalinity help reduce corrosion in pipelines, storage tanks, and RO components.

😋 What Taste It Adds

  • Gives water a mild alkaline smoothness, reducing any sharp or acidic edge
  • Adds a very light soda-like softness (similar to mildly mineralized water)
  • Makes water feel rounder and more balanced on the tongue
  • At proper dosage, it creates a clean and neutral drinking experience without strong aftertaste
  • Overdosing may introduce a slightly salty/soapy note, so controlled dosing is important
