I'm a chemist waste water operator and we use caustic soda to raise pH levels and sulfuric acid to lower pH levels
You will want to use potassium hydroxide.
They warned him that caustic soda was strongly alkaline and that it could cause serious burns to his skin if he wasn't careful.
to make calcium soap for activating the primary emulsifier
Sodium Hydroxide, also called caustic soda or lye.
There is no such thing as caustic acid - caustic soda - YES. Caustic potash - YES - but not caustic acid
Floors mr. clean septic tank
Can you use liquid plumber with a septic tank? If not what should you use?
No, use the thinner recommended on the paint can, or hot, soapy water. I don't ever recall seeing caustic soda mentioned in this context.

An overfilled septic tank can cause backups in a sewer line, causing many problems in a plumbing system. If a septic tank has overflowed, it is usually clogged with excessive organic debris. A septic tank cleaner can be a good first step when treating a septic tank overflow. Septic tank cleaners contain natural bacteria and enzymes, designed to break down organic material in human waste. Excessive disposal of bleach and detergents into a septic line can kill these bacteria, preventing the breakdown of septic waste in a tank. If a septic cleaner doesn't clear a tank after a week, it may be necessary to use a professional septic tank cleaning service.
Very Carefully! :) Use dilute acid.(the process is faster when you use strong acid). Attention: Use proper googles and safety globes.

A septic tank and its accompanying drain field are both several feet underground, and so from ground level they do not "look" like anything at all. Sometimes grass is more green over a septic tank, but this is not necessarily so. Even a septic tank specialist cannot locate your tank by looking. They would need to use a special probe or a line detector.
As posed, your question has no obvious meaning, particularly "biological effectiveness". Benefit is also a relative term, you have to compare to something else. What? Also, precisely what use had you in mind? Caustic soda has very many uses.
