AcidRich
Acidrich is an informal, descriptive term used across several disciplines to denote a high concentration of acid relative to a reference state. It is not a formal chemical designation, but it appears in technical writing as shorthand for strong acidity or elevated titratable acidity. Acidity is usually quantified by pH, hydrogen ion concentration, or titratable acidity.
In chemistry, acid-rich solutions are central to many reactions. Concentrated mineral acids such as sulfuric or
In food science, acid-rich ingredients and products contribute sour flavor and act as preservatives or texture
In geology and environmental science, acid-rich is sometimes used informally to describe rocks, soils, or waters
Safety and measurement: handling acid-rich substances requires appropriate containment, PPE, and monitoring of pH and corrosivity.
