The Solvay Process is a continuous process using limestone (CaCO3) to produce carbon dioxide (CO2) which reacts with ammonia (NH3) dissolved in brine (concentrated NaCl(aq)) to produce sodium carbonate.
The steps in the Solvay Process are:
i. Brine Purification
ii. Sodium Hydrogen Carbonate Formation
iii. Sodium Carbonate Formation iv. Ammonia Recovery
The solvay process uses salt (NaCl), limestone (CaCO3​), ammonia(NH3​) and coke(C) as the raw materials.
