March 12, 2024--Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--Soda ash or sodium carbonate is a key player in many important products and processes found in the industrial sector, including detergents, water softening applications, glass manufacturing and as a food additive. The precursor to soda ash, trona, is mined throughout the U.S., resulting in projects at plants and mines in the U.S. that are leading to billions of dollars in investments. The Green River Basin in Wyoming holds the world's largest known trona deposit, and much of the activity tracked by Industrial Info regarding soda ash and trona is found in this area.
