The definition of borate autocausticizing is based on the total sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) in the liquor or more accurately in smelt that is converted to caustic (NaOH) by the autocausticizing reaction in the recovery boiler. Therefore, 10% AC means that 10% of Na2CO3 in smelt is to be converted to NaOH by the autocausticizing reaction.
