Calcium carbonate ingredient in many household cleaning powders like Comet (cleanser) and is used as a scrubbing agent. In 1989, a researcher, Ken Simmons, introduced CaCO into the Whetstone Brook in Massachusetts. His hope was that the calcium carbonate would counter the acid in the stream from acid rain and save the trout that had ceased to spawn. Although his experiment was a success, it did increase the amount of aluminium ions in the area of the brook that was not treated with the limestone. This shows that CaCO can be added to neutralize the effects of acid rain in river ecosystems.
