Sodium Bicarbonate is sodium hydrogen carbonate (NaHCO3), used in water-based mud as a source of bicarbonate ions to precipitate calcium. It also will reduce pH. Sodium Bicarbonate is an economical and effective treatment for cement contamination. It precipitates calcium, reduces pH and deflocculates cement-contaminated fluids.

Sodium Bicarbonate is an economical and effective treatment for cement contamination. It precipitates calcium, reduces pH and deflocculates cement-contaminated fluids.
Applications/Functions
• Precipitates soluble calcium in water-base muds
• Treats cement-contaminated muds
Advantages
• Removes soluble calcium
• Lowers pH of the drilling mud
Recommended Treatment
• Mix 2.1 kg/m³ Sodium Bicarbonate for each kg/m³ soluble calcium
• When met severe cement contamination, the treatment with Sodium Bicarbonate may need to be doubled or even tripled
Sodium Bicarbonate is available in 25 kg and 50 kg plastic waterproof sacks, palletized as 40 sacks of 25 kg and 20 sacks of 50 kg per pallet.
