Abstract:

Soda Ash also known as Sodium Carbonate(Na2CO3) is an alkali chemical refined from the mineral Trona or naturally occurring Sodium Carbonate- bearing brines, the mineral Nahcolite or manufactured from one of several chemical processes. Soda Ash is mainly produced by Solvay Process also called Ammonia Soda Process. During this production process there are various Emissions and Environmental Impact. Recent technologies and advancements are predominant in reducing this Soda Ash Environment Impact. Current scenario shows that LCA is a very Handy tool which can be used to study and track the current status of Soda Ash Environment Impact. It also helps us in conducting Optimization studies and Reducing the Soda Ash Environment Impact.
