Calcium remover for water-based muds

SODA ASH is used in water-base muds as a source of carbonate ions to precipitate calcium, increase pH or flocculate spud muds. SODA ASH is the common name for sodium carbonate (Na2CO3). It is a weak base which is soluble in water and dissociates into sodium (Na) and carbonate (CO3) ions in solution.

SODA ASH is primarily used to reduce soluble calcium in water-base drilling muds and makeup waters. Other uses include increasing pH and flocculating spud muds.
