PLANTS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF SODIUM HYDROXIDE (CAUSTIC SODA) BY ELECTROLYSIS
Chlor-alkali plants for the generation of caustic soda
Caustic soda is an essential component in multiple industries due to its versatility.
Also known as sodium hydroxide, it is a very corrosive compound and due to its properties, it is widely used as a chemical base or raw material for different manufacturing processes. Its chemical formula is NaOH.
Caustic soda is an essential component in multiple industries due to its versatility.
It has the following applications:
- In the manufacture of detergents, disinfectants, soaps and cleaning products. Well known for its use in unclogging drains and pipes.
- In the manufacture of various drugs in the pharmaceutical industry.
- In the food industry for food processing, preserving and curing.
- For the refining of wood for furniture and in paper production and removal of ink from sheets in paper recycling.
- In the removal of heavy metals from water and pH regulation in the water treatment industry.
- In the textile processing to provide consistency and shine to garments in the textile industry.
- In laboratory reagents for pH adjustments.
- In other industrial uses such as in the manufacture of rayon, lycra, explosives, epoxy resins, paints, glass, ceramics, metal processing, etc.

FAQ ABOUT OUR Chlor-alkali plants for the generation of caustic soda
How are we specialised in the production of caustic soda?
At Welysis, our specialisation focuses on the construction of electrolysis plants for the production of caustic soda, also known scientifically as sodium hydroxide or sodium hydroxide. We focus on designing and developing facilities that allow us to obtain caustic soda in concentrated solutions, optimising the processes to achieve maximum efficiency and operational safety.
The concentration we obtain is 32% by default. However, it is possible to install a soda concentrator with a supplement to obtain a concentration of 50%.
How do we guarantee quality and safety in the production of sodium hydroxide?
Quality and safety are paramount in our caustic soda production plants. We implement advanced electrolysis technologies and rigorous quality controls to ensure that production meets the highest standards. In addition, our facilities are designed to minimise the risks associated with handling highly corrosive substances, ensuring a safe environment for operators.
What are the industrial applications of the caustic soda produced in our facilities?
Caustic soda is an essential compound in many industries. Some of its most important applications include:
- In pulp and paper manufacturing, where it is used for bleaching and pulp processing.
- In the chemical industry, as a reagent in the production of various compounds.
- In water treatment, for acid neutralisation and pH adjustment.
- In the textile industry, in the mercerisation process to improve the quality of fabrics.
- For the production of detergents and soaps, thanks to its properties as a cleaning and degreasing agent.
