Great video, subbed. How would you process it further to use for water filtration? Please do a video on that.

It's no clear to me the role of sodium percarbonate. What was de problem if your acid was pinkish? Where did the sodium go?

great demonstration. I'm looking forward to that you would some experiments and purify it.

alternatively pass superheated steam through charcoal in an oxygen free environment.

How does the sodium carbonate not neutralize all of the acid making sodium sulfate instead?

You are using a cracked Erlenmeyer flask, this is not a good practice, especially with corrosive and caustic chemicals.
