Neutralizer is a food grade, powdered alkali (base) designed for the neutralization of acidic solutions while
limiting the generation of harmful vapors or byproducts.

Application
Neutralizer reacts spontaneously with acid solutions, raising the overall pH of the solution. The reaction of
Neutralizer and an acid produces a salt and carbonic acid, which readily decomposes to carbon dioxide and
water as the final reaction products. When the bubbling stops, the reaction is complete and the acid solution can
be disposed of. Keep the area well ventilated during the neutralization process.
1. Dissolve Neutralizer in a holding vessel with water
2. Add the acidic solution slowly into the vessel until the fizzing stops
3. Discharge to an approved outlet
4. If additional neutralization is needed, blend Neutralizer with water and slowly add it into the vessel, limiting
splashing
For spills, neutralize the acid by pouring the raw Neutralizer powder over the spills until the fizzing stops
