The present invention relates to an apparatus for mixing sodium bicarbonate solutions for kidney dialysis in quantities to sufficient to supply dialysate for multiple kidney dialysis patients. The inventive apparatus consists, generally, of a fluid container operably connected to a fluid recirculation pump for recirculating fluid in the fluid container. Attached to the fluid container are an evacuation tube, an overflow tube and an input tube. The apparatus is operated by introducing medical grade water into the fluid container, recirculating the water, adding a premeasured quantity of bulk sodium bicarbonate solution and recirculating the mixture until the sodium bicarbonate solution is solubilized.
