Very Carefully! :) Use dilute acid.(the process is faster when you use strong acid). Attention: Use proper googles and safety globes.
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.
Generally is possible, but this strongly depends on the type of use. For example soaps with NaOH are solids and soaps with KOH are liquids.
Why do you need costic soda? Be extremely careful with this stuff - it's bad and not too forgiving to the skin or eyes. Ken
Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH) A powerful base often used in industries.
There is no such thing as caustic acid - caustic soda - YES. Caustic potash - YES - but not caustic acid
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.
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.

you can clean the floor with baking soda by mixing some soapy bases!

use caustic soda
I understand that it breaks down the lignin to release the celulose fibres.
