Attorney, Agent or FirmInternational ClassC01D 7/00 (20060101)AbstractIn the process for making sodium carbonate from trona, the soluble silicate content of crystallizer mother liquor from which sodium carbonate precursor crystals are obtained by evaporative crystallization is reduced by digesting the mother liquor at elevated temperature in the presence of certain activated insolubles, followed by separating the insolubles from the digested mother liquor. These activated insolubles are obtained by calcining crushed trona, dissolving the calcined trona in an aqueous medium to obtain a solution of sodium carbonate containing insolubles, separating the insolubles and activating them by calcination at elevated temperature.Other References
