Soda ash, primarily composed of sodium carbonate, is considered a nonrenewable resource when sourced from natural deposits, such as trona ore or sodium carbonate lakes. These deposits take millions of years to form and are finite. However, soda ash can also be produced through synthetic processes, such as the Solvay process, which utilizes salt and limestone—resources that are more abundant but not renewable in the strictest sense. Overall, while there are methods of production, soda ash itself is categorized as a nonrenewable resource.
