Soda ash is an important global commodity with astrong possibility of increasing demand. For this reason,utilization of world sodium carbonate resources into thetwenty-first century will be extremely important. TheFirst International Soda Ash Conference (lSAC) washeldJune 10-12,1997, in RockSprings, Wyoming, the largest city in Sweetwater County, the heart of the U.S .soda ash industry.The conference provided a forum forattendees to discuss, as a group, all facets of the industryand the resources.

Applications
Main applications
In terms of its largest applications, sodium carbonate is used in the manufacture of glass, paper, rayon, soaps, and detergents
Water softening
Sodium carbonate is used to soften water by removing Mg2+ and Ca2+. These ions form insoluble solid precipitates upon treatment with carbonate ions:Sodium carbonate is an inexpensive and water-soluble source of carbonate ions.
Miscellaneous
Sodium carbonate is used by the brick industry as a wetting agent to reduce the amount of water needed to extrude the clay. In casting, it is referred to as "bonding agent" and is used to allow wet alginate to adhere to gelled alginate.Sodium carbonate is used in toothpastes, where it acts as a foaming agent and an abrasive, and to temporarily increase mouth pH.
Soda ash is produced in three principal grades: Dense, natural light andsynthetic light soda ash. When these products are mixed in water they may be known as liquidsoda ash. These grades differ only in physical characteristics such as bulk density and size and shape of particles, which influence flow characteristics and angle of repose. Other physicalproperties, as well as chemical as chemical properties of solutions, are common to each gradeof soda ash.
