Bicar®Z | Sodium bicarbonate

What is Bicar®Z?

Bicar®Z is pure sodium bicarbonate. It is composed of 27% of sodium (Na+) and of 73% of bicarbonate ion (HCO3−). Sodium bicarbonate neutralizes acids and releases CO2. It does not only act as an anti-acid, but it also acts very efficiently, in particular, as a buffer.

To understand and verify the efficacy of Bicar®Z for ruminants, pigs, poultry and in shrimp culture, we have been conducting studies with independent experts for over 40 years.

DESCRIBE

Uses:

– Water treatment, increase the alkalinity of shrimp pond water in the rainy season, the amount of rain water causes the shrimp pond water to decrease pH.

– Stabilize pH in shrimp ponds because Sodium Bicarbonate NaHCO3 increases alkalinity, stabilizes and maintains alkalinity for a long time.

– Maintain water color due to heavy rain makes the pond cloudy, so it is necessary to use Sodium Bicarbonate NaHCO3

– Along with other minerals, Sodium Bicarbonate NaHCO3 enhances electrolytes, adds minerals to help shrimp harden shells.

Dosage:

– To increase alkalinity: 15 – 20 kg/1000 m3.

– Stabilize alkalinity in water: 5-10 kg/1000 m3, 5-7 days/time depending on the age of shrimp.

– Using 10-15 kg/1000 m3 can increase alkalinity to 10 mg/L.

Note:

– Should be handled when it is cool or latetime in the evening, divide and handle several times 1 to 3 hours apart so that the shrimp is not shocked by using a lot of alkali. – Should be combined with Lime or Dolomite to increase the effectiveness of alkalinity in the pond.

– The treatment dose can be increased or decreased depending on the alkalinity in the pond. If it rains a lot, in addition to increasing alkalinity, it is also necessary to increase the salinity of the water.
