Sodium sulfite is a compound with diverse industrial applications and is primarily known for its role as a preservative and antioxidant. In the food and beverage industry, it is commonly used to prevent the browning of fruits and vegetables, as well as to inhibit the growth of bacteria and fungi in processed foods. Additionally, sodium sulfite finds application in the production of paper and pulp, where it acts as a bleaching agent to remove lignin and other impurities from wood pulp, resulting in brighter and more durable paper products. Moreover, it is utilized in the water treatment process to remove excess chlorine and to dechlorinate water, making it safe for consumption and industrial use. Sodium sulfite’s versatility and effectiveness make it an essential component in various industries, ensuring the preservation of food, the production of high-quality paper, and the purification of water.

For many learners high school is not enough to prepare them for what they are to face at first year university. They find themselves completely overwhelmed and intimidated by what is expected of them to be able to do in a laboratory.

Unfortunately many learners who want to pursue science subjects go through this dilemma, few as they are because fact is SA is not producing enough learners who will become engineers, doctors, science researchers, let alone science innovators.

To address this, we developed a chemistry kits with 52 experiments for use by learners at home. This gives them an opportunity to gain hand-on exposure and engagement, confidence and understanding they need to study sciences further.

The kit comes with a manual explaining how science is experienced in daily life and therefore brings awareness of the application and usefulness of science, helping the learner relate to what they learn at school.

Some schools do have kits where only the teacher demonstrates the experiments and this is great, but you don’t master driving by watching the driving instructor, you must get in the driver’s seat yourself.
