Applications

Genesis Alkali operates a multi-faceted mining and production facility supplying some of the best-known products used all sorts of applications around the globe. We are the world’s largest producer of natural soda ash and strive to harness the latest technological innovations to better serve our customers.

From trona ore we make soda ash, sodium bicarbonate, S-Carb®, Sesqui™ and sodium hydroxide.

Soda ash is an essential component in making glass, fiberglass, detergents, tableware, lighting, and display screens for consumer electronics.

Sodium bicarbonate, commonly known as baking soda, has countless applications including those in foods, an array of consumer products, and pharmaceuticals.

S-Carb^® is the preferred ingredient in animal feed to balance rumen pH and provide electrolytes for poultry and swine.

Sesqui™ sodium sesquicarbonate provides the silky clean feeling in bath salts and many cleaning compounds.

The Green River operation has been mining trona for roughly seven decades and today produces more than 4 million short tons (3.63 million metric tons) annually. Genesis Alkali ships approximately 40,000 railcars and 5,000 truck orders of trona each year. And we do it all more efficiently and economically, on a delivered basis, than synthetic competitors anywhere in the world. Genesis Alkali has its corporate offices in Philadelphia.
