Potassium bicarbonate (KHCO3) (also known as potassium hydrogen carbonate or potassium acid carbonate) is a colorless, odorless, basic, salty substance.Potassium bicarbonate is water-soluble and is often added to bottled water to improve its taste. However, it is not soluble in alcohol. It is usually found in crystalline or powder form. It is obtained by the chemical reaction of potassium carbonate with water and carbon dioxide. Natural potassium bicarbonate is known as the mineral calcinite and is found in nature in small amounts.There is no proven theory that potassium bicarbonate is carcinogenic, and it does not have a toxic effect on the environment.Potassium bicarbonate is used as a carbon dioxide source, which causes rising in baked goods. It is used in powdered form in fire extinguishers. It is also used as a buffering agent in many medical drugs.Potassium bicarbonate, also used as a pH regulator in foods, has a basic structure. It is also used in mineral drinks for its foam-reducing effect. It also has an inhibitory effect on the growth of some bacterial and fungal species.In the production of some beverages, it causes tartaric acid to precipitate as potassium tartrate, resulting in a lower acidity. It can also be used after its formation is complete, just before bottling. It also improves flavor harmony.Technical Documentation:
