Caustic soda
The Turkish market consumes around 800,000 tons of caustic soda (NaOH) annually. According to UN COMTRADE, Türkiye imported 500 000 tons of NaOH with a value of 300 000 000 $, in 2023. The NaOH market is increasing at 5% annually, with a global revenue of $45 billion in 2023. The need is growing annually in Turkey and neighboring countries. Lineer’s 1st phase caustic soda production capacity will be 28,000 tons and 56,000 tons of NaOH in 2025 and 2028, respectively. Lineer Caustic soda (NaOH) production will cover the needs of the Turkish market by 7%.

Membrane cell production, diaphragm cell and mercury cell production is the most advantageous compared to the production is much more efficient.
The membrane cell process requires less energy and is much more environmentally friendly than it produces hazardous waste products such as mercury or asbestos. In addition, working with process is extremely safe. It is possible to produce caustic soda continuously with high quality with low maintenance costs. Yearly on-stream working hours will be 8000 hours.
