I work in the industrial field in the maintenance department. I, and my coworkers have always loved these videos. We always say "The worker places the..." and immediately know it's a "How its made" joke.
my goal in life is to be "a worker" on a "How Its Made" episode
Thank you for all that you do.
Then the worker places his butt in the chair keeping a close watch for the boss......
Me and my dad loves watching how it's made and have been watching it for many years. he used to watch these when he got home working night shift as a respiratory therapist and got up, turned on the tv, and watched how its made on the science channel.
@Jake Braiding-Watson I liked it.
Salute to everyone from 2040s when this video gets recommended again 😎
Feet
😧🤣🇧🇼
Or in a week
I was just in 2047 and this video was recommended to me.
Ah yes, the great baking soda wars
In this episode, baking soda.
Well, we pump water into a natural deposit to dissolve the baking soda. Then we pump the mixture back up and dry it until the water is all evaporated. Then we put the stuff left over from drying into a bag and sell it.
hey, if it works.
Profit
But when added water to underground , it's reacts and SODIUM HYDROXIDE + co2 is formed.
@@Aloewells Sodium Hydroxide, aka NaOH is a much stronger base than Sodium Bicarbonate. You cannot make it by just adding water to the later, this is not how things work
But then the evil genius switch the hot brine with vinegar an ka BLEWY
It's also used by the gallon in medical grade for things like dialysis. The dialyzer tube uses an osmotic membrane separating the patients blood and the bicarbonate and the pressure gradient causes waste products to get sucked into the bicarbonate.
I was wondering what is in that bath as well call it. Literally on dialysis right now watching this video as a am on the machine now. Been doing dialysis for 12 years now from the age of 18.
Wow, sounds safe
@@adolphadillard3220oh my God
Crouch grass, and celery is the best kidney herb.
My uncle just retired from the baking soda mines he worked at Church and Dwight in Green River Wyoming every train that I see on the rails headed to China of Asia comes from this mine. Baking Soda is used in everything from food, livestock feed, soap, mask, polymers, fertilizer, you name it it all begins as baking soda in a mine just like this one.
Ha! That's "Arm & Hammer," right? Neat.
Actually it (sodium bicarbonate) has few industrial uses; if you heat baking soda you get washing soda (sodium carbonate) and that has lots of industrial uses.
Yo dats rill ya'll BALEEDAT forill doh
you forgot toothpaste and crack!
Thanks 👍🇬🇧
It's crazy how much of a process baking soda is and how cheap it is.
Economy of scale I guess.
Actually, for a "refining" process, this is rather simple and has 1 basic step once it enters the factory: remove the water. That's one of the reasons it's so cheap
@@HitomiMudo not true. What is exactly happening is still a mystery to scientist. We call it the scientigo effect.
@@lindzeesouperocd7558 where mystery?
@@lindzeesouperocd7558 scientigo effect isn’t even a real thing. and hitomi is right, baking soda is such a basic compound its extraction and refining is incomparable to even the most basic of polymers.
I now finally know why i would see just long lines of pipes leading to absolutely nowhere whenever i would travel in my home state.
Let me guess, north central Colorado.....
Amazes me what goes into making baking soda. Much respect to the engineers that dreamed up, designed and built this process.
Yep indeed 👍🇬🇧
Yeah, I blows my mind when I realize that everything we see was engineered by someone. Like, where tf do they come up with some of these machines? 🤣
Don’t worry the Chinese will reverse engineer usa technology
@@Matityahu-the-God i missed something, it was brine then they removed all the water through multiple steps then it became pure, what am I missing?
@@Fogaata it's sad that someone would try so hard to downplay human ingenuity.
I use it in bathing and in cleaning. Also as a heartburn treatment. Baking soda is very versatile.
It’s great for heartburn, but tastes awful! I’ve heard it’s good to use for brushing your teeth. But it’s a bit coarse on them. My dad used it when I was a kid. I don’t know I& he still does, but he has all his teeth still. Supposed to help with your breath also. I use it on my shoes. When they start getting a bit rank. I put 3/4 a cup in each shoe coat the whole inside let them sit for a few days, and it draws all the stink out. Works great too!
Helps decrease acidic ph in a coffee if you add a pinch, tasteless
It's great for absorbing odors too, for the kitchen garbage bin and ashtrays and the like
@@archkull add white vinegar and the reaction will make a nice cleaning foam. Perfect for toilets sinks etc
@@klaudii4446 no it won't, baking soda is alkaline and will quickly neutralize anything acidic*. It is a waste.
I miss this guys voice, I grew up watching this tv show.
Did he die?
@@michaelnelson1128 no! Brooks Moore is still alive.
I know this is nostalgic
Sodium bicarbonate has to be one of the most useful compounds ever discovered. It really is amazing everything you can do with it, and it's completely harmless.
Odor remover, teeth cleaner, bread leveaner, antacid...
Cleans veggies
I just discovered it's an amazing meat tenderizer too. Using this with cheap, less desired tough cuts of meat has saved me lots of money on cooking. This stuff really is the ultimate life hack.
I throw half a cup in my daughters bath. I don’t use bath bombs. Idk if it’s been scientifically proven, but it seems like it heals scrapes and cuts faster. Also, mosquito bites go away.
@@McfunfaceBEST antacid ever.
Containers and machines are so clean in the factory because they are always cleaned with baking soda (X
That makes sense as it’s a natural cleaner
@SKULLCRUSHER true
@Astrid YOU WOULD THINK BUT THEY ARE SOME OF THE DANGEOUSCAYSE MIXING IT WRONG OR ANY OTHER MISTAKE MAY CAUSE PEOPLE THEIR LIVES CAUSE OF THE RISK OF BLOWING UP THE WHOLE FACTORY
@@yellowbone5751 in this case definitely not unless you showed up with a shitload of vinegar or something LOL definitely not flammable The boiler room in that particular facility is pretty impressive from personal experience if I remember right there are two 904 million btu boilers that are about 40 ft long and about 15 ft diameter
@Astrid well if you consider the fact that it etches all the Portland cement out from between the aggregate in the concrete floors in that facility ,most of the regular mild steel handrails are heavily pitted but are free of rust , once you work your way into the dry processing side of that building there is baking soda on literally all surfaces
I waited for the pun, I wasn't disappointed, "It will no doubt rise to the occasion." Boom tisssssssss.
Puns are some of my favorite moments from each episode.
You're thinking of baking powder
BDM TSSS
Someone give the man a cake.
@SKULLCRUSHER CAN WE SCISSOR
Goes in swimming pools also to raise the pH. I put about 50 lbs in my pool every spring. Hint, you can get it at feed stores much cheaper than big box stores.
I wanted to see how they put baking soda in small yellow boxes at the grocery store for home baking 😊
Looks like its 3am again.
Bicarb is excellent for immediately releaving the symptoms of heart burn and bloating.
One teaspoon on bicarb dissolved in a glass of warm water. It’s amazing.
1:20 I love how the solution to that valve fouling up with dried brine splatter is to just wrap it in plastic wrap.
Cascades darl I ňcna see ĺe wa 4 44j4n53 4 m e 33 1:43
This has to be the cleanest factory in existence.
Wait till u see blech factory
Nope, the bleach factory would like to talk.
From personal experience absolutely not lol
love these videos...everyone should know how "stuff" is made.....
The more you know! Baking soda is like magic when it come to my pastries jeje
That one guy with the beard evidently runs the whole operation by himself.
That's Mr. Baking Soda.
Now I'm going to have to search for videos of how they do the dissolving in the mine.
That makes two of us. HOW IT’S MADE is too darn general.
its more of a underground well
@Nicotti _Non-stop urination_
There isn't a hole in the ground with digging machinery in it. They drill boreholes and pump/extract mineral loaded brine.
Its like the mine and the plant combine into a big soxhlet extractor, extracting the NaHCO3 out of the mountains. How neat.
I like the techno music that adds to how scientific and technological the process is
Wow the brine is what gives it its delicious flavor 😋
I cant believe most of my childhood was spent watching how it works 😂 its sooo fascinating
0:18 and crack
Goodness what a process!
Watched a lot of how to video their is a huge process to make them all thx
It took me 27 of these videos to go to sleep ty♥️
2:08 When Frosty has diarrhea.
Merry Christmas everyone
I work in an industrial battery plant, we have Sodium Bicarbonate on standby in case a battery full of acid breaks. Cleans right up.
I always wondered, thanks!
This was a great series.
My first thought when looking at the thumbnail: *the title must be how cocaine is made*
Love this show
I use this for indigestion, great stuff this is. Thank you to all who produce this wonder product.
Sodium bicarbonate is an antacid, and one of the main ingredients in Alka-Seltzer.
@@kenc2257 and its cheaper :)
@@kenc2257 Too much of Na ions is bad for health; it upsets the Na/K balance and creates nervous problems (propagation of nerve signals in brain and heart)
Same here, it’s better than any indigestion medicine.
I normally use Gavison, but if I'm at someones place and in need of quick fix, baking soda is the go.
2:07 how it’s made: “sodium bicarbonate slurry”
my brain: *mmm f o r b i d d e n i c e c r e a m*
Fascinating. 💚💚
This was dry until the last pun. Bravo! 👏
Never knew how much went into it.
The ultimate heartburn killer. Stuff is gold in my house.
I’m in Colorado, I can confirm, we have this stuff everywhere.
There are spots that look like unmelted snow it’s so white, and if you let a tub of water to dry, your left with white mineral residue.
My well water is 7.6 or so and it’s awesome.
Wow, that's that's quite a process!
So much for me wanting to make it at home lol
Great, very helpful video
This is a cracking episode
amazing science
today I learned something new
crazy how relatively easily they get it to food grade purity
Do not give them ideas man.
Baking soda is an essential item in my home.
It's very interesting to watch how the crystals turn into a slurry.
Often called Trona in the ground.
Wow I noticed this plant on my google maps because its so big, and now im watching how they mine. it so cool
“Baking soda, I got baking soda”
this is grossly underappreciated.
Awesome!👍
Been using This product all my life never knew where it came from :)
It must be easy to keep all the equipment clean that handles the baking soda! :D
I wish they would go more in depth on the brine and extraction process.
They actually left out the most important part. What is this brine and were it come from.
made my day
after watching this I knew I had to go and get some baking soda I bought some off Amazon I knew there was something I had forgotten earlier
Thanks, keep us posted.
Is anyone else amazed that this product doesn't cost a lot more?
Factors of scale. They’re shipping this stuff by the rail car. Strike that, by the train. And with the brine injection, a worker doesn’t have to go digging.
It does if you buy it in little boxes. I get 13 pounds of it at Costco for about a buck a pound. I imagine it's half that price in 50+ pound bags. Considering that all they're doing is pumping brine out of the ground and drying it, it shouldn't be that expensive.
B May look at the vid again ! Firstly they have to pump in ‘ hot brine ‘ so that it gets saturated with the mineral element . I hope you’re not in the education business ?
@@dennispickard7743 All this is is pumping brine underground, pulling it out, and drying and purifying the mixture. Nobody is bringing in train cars of raw materials, there are no parts, there is relatively little energy consumption, no significant chemical usage, etc. Compared to most How It's Made videos, the production process here is quite simple.
B May Baking soda, or sodium bicarbonate, comes from soda ash obtained either through the Solvay process or from trona ore, a hard, crystalline material. Trona dates back 50 million years, to when the land surrounding Green River, Wyoming, was covered by a 600-square-mile (1,554-square-kilometer) lake. As it evaporated over time, this lake left a 200-billion-ton deposit of pure trona between layers of sandstone and shale. The deposit at the Green River Basin is large enough to meet the entire world's needs for soda ash and sodium bicarbonate for thousands of years.
Because the synthetic process used in the Solvay method presented some pollution problems, Church & Dwight Co. Inc. is basing more and more of its manufacturing on trona mining. Another large producer of soda ash, the FMC Corporation, also relies on trona to manufacture soda ash and sodium bicarbonate. Trona is mined at 1,500 feet (457.2 meters) below the surface. FMC's mine shafts contain nearly 2,500 (4,022.5 kilometers) miles of tunnels and cover 24 square miles (62 square kilometers). Fifteen feet (4.57 meters) wide and nine feet (2.74 meters) tall,
1 Soda ash can be manufactured chemically using the Solvay process, or it can be made from trona ore. If trona ore is used, it must first be mined. After it has been brought to the surface, the trona ore is transported to a variety of processing plants. There, the ore is refined into a slurry of sodium sesquicarbonate, an intermediate soda ash product that actually contains both soda ash (sodium carbonate) and baking soda (sodium
LOOK UP SESQUICARBONATE ,
A white crystalline powder you say? 🤔
It's important that the fleeb is rubbed, because the fleeb has all of the fleeb juice.
now you owe me a washerndryerna house to wrap around it
That’s beautiful 😻
These guys have been entertaining me with their Dad Joke style puns for over 20 years 😂
Very nice visit.
Bicarb is widely used to adjust the PH of water
I had a stomachache but it stopped while watching this video.
Vamos alianza!!
Good on ya
Stomachache?
If this is the Nahcolite plant in Peance Creek CO, It was my first job as an electrician back started there in Dec 1990
Interesting place for sure this is the first place I've ever confirmed I have worked on that showed up in a how it's made video
Nice informative video 👍
amazing
Wow that was very interesting.
Baking soda is my new best friend 😊
Love me some white crystalline powders
This reminds me of the types of videos your middle school science teacher gives you
Great stuff. Use it to make water alkaline for a step during the development of film.
Very nice
Wow.
2:07 that looks delicious
The abrassion(¿?) resistance of the pipes and stuff has to be top level!!! This thing Is working with sandpaper..minus the paper...YES the baking soda is way softer than aluminio oxide , but still...its A LOT OF BAKING SODA!
So pouring a large batch of vinegar into the dry mixture would be a bad thing?
Imagine if you could sublimate the Martian atmosphere into baking soda.
The original voice actor is back :D
Can you show us how Organic Baking Soda is made?
Interesting
Always enjoy these videos. :) Nice and relaxing and full of information.
Anddd just like that, I'm also here mainly for the comments because I saw the thumbnail.
I’m watching this because there is a question becoming more public now as to the pureness of Arm&Hammer’s baking soda vs Bob’s Red Mill’s.
Arm and hammer is better and has finer size crystals
I was just asked by one of my kids the other day how they made this and I didn't have a good answer lol
lol
Just to prove to you your devices are listening to your conversations. Lol
@@gizellesmith8763 lol right? Same thing happened the week before last after a conversation with coworkers about General Tsao's Chicken -- not two days later another UA-camr I follow posted a video on it. I have my phone set up to not listen to my conversations, but somehow the UA-camrs are getting the vibes lol
Congrats on having inquisitive kids!
Make sure you warn or sensitize your kids about health ptoblems if (chemical) consumed without moderation 😎
Hi ! ...
I just found this channel
and I subscribe to support ...
interesting ...
Thank you.
How do you use baking soda on insurgence?
I've only seen one cocaine joke, I'm dissapointed
Cocaine is no joke, especially if it is cut with baking soda. Not funny at all.
I made one
@@lowryder3209 Ryder? Why Ryder instead of rider?
@@ShainAndrews my irl name is "Ryder"
The recommendations continue!
It's a really versatile chemical, I use when I got heartburn, 1 spoon of baking soda in a glass of water it's enough
I have acid reflux disease , I use it for relief as well , but may I suggest that you next time try taking it in a glass of very warm water , mixed very well till water is almost clear then drink down as fast as you comfortably can , you may get much better results , the very warm water seems to activate it just before it is induced , seems to quicken the results . Yes it works every time I personally am sold on it , it is an old fashioned remedy that simply works very well .
I always thought baking soda was weird because the most popular band, Arm and Hammar. The logo I always felt never looked like an arm and hammar and looked more like a detergent or soap logo and of course they did also make detergent so I always felt weird about buying baking soda.
I assume that this video omitted steps to filter out impurities? There are lots of other compounds that are soluble in hot water and will precipitate out when the temperature is lowered.
Perhaps it's because I'm a bit super stoned, but I laughed at the joke so much lmao
THIS is the correct narrator.
