Applications

Major Industrial Applications

Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs) & Bulk Drugs

Crucial reagent for pH adjustment, amination reactions, ester hydrolysis, and precipitation of pharmaceutical bases. Supplied to tier-1 pharma facilities meeting cGMP purity norms.

Steel Pickling & Metal Neutralization

Neutralizes residual acid baths on rolled coils and wires after hydrochloric or sulfuric acid pickling, preventing flash rusting and preparing steel for subsequent galvanizing or drawing.

SNCR Thermal Power & Boiler De-NOx

Injected into flue gas streams of thermal power plants and captive boiler units for Selective Non-Catalytic Reduction (SNCR), breaking down nitrogen oxides into eco-friendly nitrogen gas and steam.

Natural Latex Stabilization & Effluent Treatment (ETP)

Serves as an indispensable anti-coagulant preservative in natural latex processing and an economical, easily dispersible neutralizing alkali in chemical and textile Effluent Treatment Plants (ETP).
