Increasing Drinking Water pH
Published on by Asanka Jayasinghe, Mr. in Academic
We are planning to use sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) or sodium hydroxide (NaOH) in few drinking water applications to raise the pH:
- Na2CO3 to raise pH from 7. 1 to 8
- NaOH to raise pH from 5 to 7. 5
Do we need to use the food grade sodium carbonate and sodium hydroxide? What are the possible dangers of not using the food grade Na2CO3 and NaOH?
Is there a cheaper method of increasing the drinking water pH if the food grade Na2CO3 and NaOH need to be used?
