The Secret Life of Acidifiers: Why They’re the Real MVPs of Modern Chemistry
Acidifiers—sounds menacing, right? Almost like some sort of clandestine vigilante group in a sci-fi movie. But these unsung heroes have a much more down-to-earth job: cleaning up our everyday lives, making them healthier and just a bit tangier. So let's take the plunge with a splash of humor and a pinch of knowledge.
What Are Acidifiers Anyway?
Think of acidifiers as the spice rack of the chemical world-things that bring low the pH level of whatever they're added to, making things more acidic. Acidifiers, in whatever they do-food, animal feed, industrial products-they are always game-on to balance, preserve, and enhance.
You must have stumbled upon their work without even noticing it. That piquant kick in your favorite soft drink? Acidifiers. The shelf life of your go-to salad dressing? Acidifiers again. They are the quiet perfectionists of the modern age.
Acidifiers in Food: Tangy Titans
In the culinary world, acidifiers are the secret ingredient that takes your taste buds on a rollercoaster. Citric acid keeps fruits looking fresh while adding a zing to soft drinks. And let's not forget acetic acid—the superstar of pickles! Without acidifiers, our food would be bland, boring, and frankly, a little spoiled.
Cleaning with a Punch
Beyond food, acidifiers are actually flexing their muscles in the cleaning aisle. Pair them with a trusty iodophor, and you've got yourself a germ-busting team that even your kitchen sink would thank you for if it could talk. Acidifiers help disinfect surfaces, making your home squeaky clean and bacteria-free.
And talking about cleanliness, let us not forget that they also help in fumigation! Acidifiers enhance the effect of some fumigants, and because of this, they are very vital in pest control. Bugs watch out; acidifiers are coming!
Animal Health and Feed: A Moo-ving Contribution
Farmers also owe it to acidifiers. These champs help keep animal feeds fresh and boost gut health in animals. Healtier animals mean better produces for us-think about a win-win situation!
Conclusion: The Unsung Heroes
Acidifiers may not have capes, but their contributions are nothing less than heroic. From food preservation to industrial cleaning and even fumigation, they keep life running smoothly—and hygienically!
So the next time you sip on a soda or wipe your countertop with an iodophor-based cleaner, give a little nod to the acidifiers. They've certainly earned it!

I hate to sound mean (no I don’t) but I sure am tired of the disgusting separation humans require you to have from nature in order to function in their society. Like. Haha, very funny. But no. I refuse to adhere to your bullshit ideologies. I will piss on the dirt as God intended
#Like. Do they realize urine is a nitrogen fixing agent#And that you can use it to acidify soil as well#Without the use of lime#Like come the fuck on

It should be taught in schools the difference between cleaning, sanitizing, and disinfecting. It would do everyone some good.

Antibacterial soap??? For your body???
#i use an antibacterial body soap and an acidified body wash once a week#mostly because T and cymbalta have made me so fucking sweaty that as soon as I sweat if i dont i feel like i smell SO bad#but normal levels of sweat and bacteria do NOT need antibacterial washes or acidified washes#you are CLEANING your body not sanitizing. humans are not meant to be sanitary.#body stuff

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.

The Magic of Iodophor: The Unsung Hero in Pipeline Cleaning
Pipeliner cleaners have most of us envisioning some futuristic chemical brew bubbling through stubborn grime. But if I told you the real hero here is a relatively unsung, slightly mysterious chemical called iodophor, you might well nod and say, "Yep, that's got a name that sounds like a wizard from a fantasy novel, and honestly, it might just be magical."
What is Iodophor?
Iodophor is basically the cool, less volatile cousin of iodine. It is a mixture of iodine and a surfactant, which is a fancy term for something that makes it spread around better. This concoction is a germ's worst nightmare, used extensively in sanitizing pipelines, brewing equipment, and even dairy machinery. Why? Because it's effective, easy to rinse, and doesn't leave behind weird flavors. Cheers to that!
How Does Iodophor Work?
Iodophor is the party crasher at bacteria's housewarming. It swoops in, disrupts their membranes, and poof! Goodbye, bacteria. Bonus: it doesn't overstay its welcome. Unlike harsher cleaners, iodophor is gentler on your equipment, ensuring no scratches or damage.
Why Pipeline Cleaners Love It
For pipeline cleaners, iodophor is like that all-in-one tool you wish you had in your toolbox. It's versatile, works in both cold and warm water, and requires minimal elbow grease. Plus, it's kind to the environment. You can sleep soundly knowing you're not sending toxic sludge down the drain.
A Pinch of Humor
Picture this: a pipeline so clean it could double as a waterslide. That’s the kind of sparkle iodophor brings to the table. And no, it won’t leave your coffee tasting like iodine—a win for both your taste buds and your peace of mind.
The Bottom Line
Iodophor would never wear a cape, of course, but it is cleaning's unsung hero. Magically, everyone from pipeline cleaners to the purists of all things hygienic and productive requires iodophor. Just remember: next time that pipe is positively glistening for the world, take a step back and honor the iodophor. The magic has won out.

Having a little bottle of acid is stressful cause even though I know it’s fine in there I feel like it’s going to melt a hole in everything it touches like a cartoon
#I have to acidify a sample in the field#I do regularly spill acid tho so I don’t know why they let me use it anyway

i loosely followed thedimelions’s tutorial for naturally dyeing a pride flag, with a lot of added research about natural dyes, stains, mordants, sewing, etc, and i wanted to share my results!!

process, notes, and more pics under the read more🌱
starting off i soaked my fabric (100% cotton acquired from joann's during their closing sale, rip joann's ;-;) in a 1:5 mixture of soy milk and water for 12 hours, then let dry on a clothesline in the sun, then dipped and dried two more times (the proteins in the soy milk help the natural dyes adhere to the fabric, creating darker colors and better colorfastness)

while that was happening i started making my dyes, which involved simmering my chosen dyestuffs in some water for 30-60 minutes. i didnt time it, just went until the color developed to a point i was happy with


as far as ratios i didn’t measure, but the more dyestuff = stronger color so err on the side of more
red: turmeric + baking soda, paprika, and yellow onion skin dye as the liquid base
orange: yellow onion skins
yellow: turmeric
green: red cabbage + baking powder (LOTS), turmeric
blue: red cabbage + baking powder
purple: red cabbage
for the red cabbage dyes, i added the baking powders and soda after simmering and just kept adding and stirring till i got the color i wanted. ((BIG NOTE red cabbage, and debatably most of the others that I used, are fugitive dyes, meaning its not a true dye and more of a stain that will fade with time and wash out more easily, especially without mordanting on additives like iron. keep this in mind if you end up doing this project or transfering these methods to cloth you will be using for clothes, ie washing and wearing more frequently))
i also tried to make a pink with avocado skins and pits, which did come out a lovely rosy color, but i didn’t end up using in the final flag, which i might use beet or red cabbage + lemon juice or another acidified for next time to get a more bright pink

now with my dyes ready and my cloth dried out from its previous soy milk dip i cut it into strips and stuck it in the jars, which were placed in the sun for the day (alternatively, you could simmer the cloth in the pot) and then left to sit overnight
the next day i squeezed out the excess dye and gave the ones with turmeric a light rinse to get the grit out, then hung them to dry
((small note i reused the dyes baths to see what would happen since they still looked just as pigmented, but the colors are much much much more faded on the second go around. all in all its doable, but I wouldn't recommend it.))


now time to sew! i procured a second hand sewing machine specifically for this project and had never sewed before, but thankfully this required the easiest stitch in the game (a straight stitch in a straight line). i looked up how to sew a flag specifically to get those clean lines rather than just overlapping, and this video was great (shoutout Suffolk Public Library)


as you can see my flag ended up quite long cause I left a lot of wiggle room, so I just look up flag ratios, trimmed it up (and used the extra strip of rainbow as decoration) then added a white strip folded over to make a way for me to hang it on a stick if I ever so desire.

and ta daaa! i would still like to clean it up a bit, and do a zig zag stitch around the outside to stop the cloth from fraying further, but im happy with the unpolished look of it. once i figure out how to get a pink I like, and how to get browns and blacks, i want to make a progress flag and trans flag. also just started growing some indigo, so excited to see if I can get some blue dyes out of that.
