Crystal Quest Acid Neutralizing/pH Enhancing Mix is non-hazardous, environmentally friendly, safe, and a cost-effective treatment for alkalinity addition and pH adjustment of waste streams made up of magnesium oxide and calcite (calcium carbonate). This mix has minimal requirements for safe handling, storage and use make it the smart choice compared to caustic soda or lime. Magnesium oxide buffers to a maximum pH of 9 in most wastewater streams, making biomass damaging pH excursions less likely (lime and caustic soda can easily reach a pH of 12 and 14 respectively). Magnesium oxide offers price stability relative to historical caustic soda price volatility.
