| However with the introducion of carbon dioxide alkalinity levels can be regulated, as it forms a weak carbonic acid. |
| If more alkalinity was needed, then borax, sodium metaborate, sodium carbonate, or even lye were used. |
| The limitation may be woodiness, extreme acidity or alkalinity expressed by a Ph factor, flooding, topography, depth or climate. |
| Loss of carbon dioxide increases alkalinity and causes a slight diminution in the protein content of the egg. |
| Sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide are used when greater alkalinity is required, but care must be taken when handling them as they are quite caustic. |
| Lime was then used to reduce the level of acidity or alkalinity in the waste treatment Iroquois retention basin. |
