Soda Ash
Along with sodium hydroxide, it is one of the two products of Soda Industries. A commercially available product contains more or less 2% of sodium hydrogen carbonate, sodium chloride, and water. The soda ash produced in the kiln is called light ash, which is re-calcined by pouring it into water, and called dense ash.
