Do the kidneys help maintain the bodys acid base balance by removing acess hydrogen ions?

Not entirely. In order to maintain acid-base homeostasis, acid production must balance the neutralization or excretion. The lungs and kidneys are the main regulators of acid-base homeostasis. The lungs release CO2, an end product of carbonic acid (H2CO3). The renal tubules, with the regulation of bicarbonate (HCO3-), excrete other acids produced from the metabolism of proteins, carbohydrates, and fats.Renal compensation kicks in when the other mechanisms have been ineffective, generally after about 6 hours of sustained acidosis or alkalosis. While respiratory compensation occurs almost immediately, renal mechanisms can take hours to days to make a difference.In acidosis the kidneys excrete H+ in urine and retain HCO3-. In alkalosis, the kidneys excrete bicarbonate and retain H+ in the form of organic acids, resulting in near-normalization of pH.2,3Lastly, bone may also serve as a buffer because it contains a large reservoir of bicarbonate and phosphate and can buffer a significant acute acid load.
