After injection, intravenous sodium bicarbonate dissociates to provide sodium (Na +) and bicarbonate (HCO 3 −) anions. Bicarbonate anions can consume hydrogen ions (H +) and thereby be converted to carbonic acid (H 2 CO 3), which can subsequently be converted to water (H 2 O) and carbon dioxide (CO 2) which can be excreted by the lungs.

The legality of supervised injection is handled on a state-by state basis. New South Wales trialed a supervised injection site in Sydney in 2001, which was made permanent in 2010. [14] After several years of community activism, Victoria agreed to open a supervised injection site in Melbourne's North Richmond neighbourhood in 2018 on a trial ...
Bicarbonate ions constitute 48% of river water solutes but only 0.14% for seawater. [ 14 ] [ 15 ] Differences like these are due to the varying residence times of seawater solutes; sodium and chloride have very long residence times, while calcium (vital for carbonate formation) tends to precipitate much more quickly.
