Answer:
Carbonation is the process of dissolving carbon dioxide in liquid. The process usually involves carbon dioxide under high pressure. When the pressure is reduced, the carbon dioxide is released from the solution as small bubbles, which causes the solution to "fizz". This effect is seen in carbonated soft drinks.

Carbonation
The Carbonation is used to manufacture sodium carbonate Na2CO3.
The steps involved in this process are:
1. Purify saturated brine.
2. React it with gaseous ammonia.
3. The ammoniated brine is carbonated with CO2 to form NaHCO3
4. This is insoluble in brine solution, so can be filtered out.
5. On heating, it decomposes to Na2CO3.
6. CaCO3 is also used to provide CO2.
