Manufacturing Process
1)Solvay process:
Solvay Process centered around a large hollow tower. At the bottom, calcium carbonate (limestone) was heated to release carbon dioxide.
CaCO3 → CaO + CO2
At the top, a concentrated solution of sodium chloride and ammonia entered the tower. As the carbon dioxide bubbled up through it, sodium bicarbonate precipitated:
NaCl + NH3 + CO2 + H2O → NaHCO3 + NH4Cl
The sodium bicarbonate was then converted to sodium carbonate by heating it, releasing water and carbon dioxide:
2NaHCO3 → Na2CO3 + H2O + CO2
Meanwhile, the ammonia was regenerated from the ammonium chloride byproduct by heating it with lime (calcium hydroxide) left over from carbon dioxide generation:
CaO + H2O → Ca(OH)2
Ca(OH)2 + 2NH4Cl → CaCl2 + 2NH3 + 2H2O
2)Combined Production Process (Hou's Process)
It is the same as the Solvay Process in the first few steps. But instead of treating the remaining solution with lime, carbon dioxide and ammonia is pumped into the solution and sodium chloride is added until it is saturated at 40 degree C. Then the solution is cooled down to 10 degree C. Ammonium chloride precipitates and its removed by filtration, the solution is recycled to produce more sodium bicarbonate. Hou's process eliminates the production of calcium chloride and the byproduct ammonium chloride can be used as a fertilizer.

Determination methods:
Determination of sodium carbonate content (GB 210.2-2004)
Reagent:
(1) Hydrochloric acid volumetric solution

(2) Bromocresol green-methyl red (indicator)
