Need a fast method of making several gallons of diluted HCL/CL ready for SMB. I need to get Yield data from this batch before paying for it! But time is an issue, I can't let it sit for days to off gas.

I tried a little baking soda in a beaker full of solution, I got a very fine brown powder settled. It this the only way to go? And if it is is thwere a PH range I am shooting for prior to using the SMB?

I am sorry if this info is already posted but I spent yestarday looking and found nothing specific enough. I am sure I read about it once but now time is my enemy.
Can somebody give a little quick direction?
Thanks Again,
JOhn
 
It might not be as fast as you are looking for but boiling does wonders at removing free chlorine.
