A neutralizer is a substance or material used in the neutralization of acidic water. It is a common designation for alkaline materials such as calcite (calcium carbonate) or magnesia (magnesium oxide) used in the neutralization of acid waters. Neutralizers help prevent: Acidic well water from… View Full Term
