3. Dealkalization of water - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dealkalization_of_water

   Like water softeners, dealkalizers contain ion-exchange resins that are regenerated with a concentrated salt solution - NaCl. In the case of a water softener, the cation exchange resin is exchanging sodium (the Na + ion of NaCl) for hardness minerals such as calcium and magnesium.

4. Water softening - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_softening

   Water softening is the removal of calcium, magnesium, and certain other metal cations in hard water. The resulting soft water requires less soap for the same cleaning effort, as soap is not wasted bonding with calcium ions. Soft water also extends the lifetime of plumbing by reducing or eliminating scale build-up in pipes

5. Sodium bicarbonate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_bicarbonate

   [38] [39] Its reaction with stomach acid produces salt, water, and carbon dioxide: NaHCO 3 + HCl → NaCl + H 2 O + CO 2 (g) A mixture of sodium bicarbonate and polyethylene glycol such as PegLyte, [ 40 ] dissolved in water and taken orally, is an effective gastrointestinal lavage preparation and laxative prior to gastrointestinal surgery ...

6. Bath salts - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bath_salts

   A bath salt tablet shaped like a seashell. Some bath salts act as water softeners and change the way soap rinses. High concentrations of salts increase the density of the water and increase buoyancy, which makes the body feel lighter in the bath. Very high concentrations of salts in water are used in many isolation tank therapies. Isolation ...
