THE SOLVAY PROCESS The Solvay process, also known as the ammonia-soda process, is an industrial method for producing sodium carbonate (Na2CO3), commonly called soda ash. It utilizes readily available and inexpensive materials: salt brine (sodium chloride solution) and limestone (calcium carbonate). The process involves several steps, including the use of ammonia to facilitate the reaction between the salt and limestone. DETAILS OF THE PROCESS: 1. Purification of Brine: Salt brine is purified to

The Solvay Conference: 17 Nobel Winners in the Most Iconic Science Photo Ever Maybe one of the smartest groups of people ever photographed. This remarkable image was taken at the 5th Solvay Conference on Quantum Mechanics in 1927, a historic gathering that shaped modern physics. Seventeen of the attendees were Nobel Prize winners.In the center sits Albert Einstein, and just two seats to his left is Marie Curie, the only person in history to win Nobel Prizes in two different scientific discipline
