Zinc sulfate (chemical formula ZnSO4) is an inorganic compound of zinc that is used as a dietary supplement for treating zinc deficiency. It is a metal sulfate that contains Zn+2 in its structure for more information about zinc sulfate (ZnSO4)
Because sulfate is the preferred reactant, it is consumed first and only if there is excess ammonia is a significant amount of ammonium nitrate produced.

Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS): Is It Really That Bad?
Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS) is a term that frequently pops up on ingredient lists for a wide array of personal care products, from shampoos and body washes to toothpaste and facial cleansers. Its prevalence in the beauty and personal care industry makes it a subject of curiosity and, sometimes, concern for consumers striving to make informed choices. This blog post aims to demystify SLS, shedding…
How does one adjust water chemistry to achieve desired flavor profiles?
Water chemistry plays a crucial role in the brewing process and can have a significant impact on the flavor profile of a beer. While some brewers may choose to use distilled or reverse osmosis water and build up their own mineral profile from scratch, others may want to adjust their existing water source to achieve a specific flavor profile.

The time of the study, the Miyakejima volcano³ was active and accounted for about 80% of the sulfate depositions on the Japanese islands.
³ The Miyakejima volcano is located about 180 km south of Tokyo and began erupting in June, 2000. At its peak it was releasing 80 000 t of sulfur dioxide each day, although there continue to be a number of smaller eruptions, the release of sulfur dioxide has declined and by 2013 emissions were reduced to below 1000 t per day.
