Introduction:
Caustic soda, also known as sodium hydroxide (NaOH), serves as a cornerstone in various industrial processes, ranging from chemical manufacturing to water treatment. Two primary methods for caustic soda production are membrane cell technology and diaphragm cell technology. While both approaches yield the same end product, they differ significantly in their operational principles, efficiency, environmental impact, and product purity. In this article, we delve into the nuances of these two technologies, exploring their differences and implications for the chemical industry.
