Ferric chloride solution

  • Chemical name:Ferric chloride solution
  • Molecular formula :FeCl3
  • Molecular weight :162.21
  • Package:Plastic barrel or tank vehicle
  • appearance:Brownish liquid

1. Use:

Good substitute of solid ferric chloride. In photoengraving; photography; manufacture of other Fe salts, pigments, ink; as catalyst in organic reactions; as mordant in dyeing and printing textiles; oxidizing agent in dye manufacute. Clinical reagent (amino acids in urine, esp in phenylketonuria). HPFCS type meets the high requirements of electrical industry.

Ferric chloride solution is high-efficiency flocculant for purifying, deodorizing, decolorizing or sterilizing treatment of industrial effluents and civil sewage.

2. Compared with other flocculant, it has following advantages:

  1. Saves 40% of cost compared with solid ferric chloride at equivalent concentration.
  2. Simple to use, no need for dissolution.
  3. Saves 30% of cost compared with liquid/solid aluminum sulfate, polyaluminum chloride, polyferric sulfate.
  4. Good flocculation property, with faster sedimentation compared with aluminum flocculant.
  5. Reduces sludge production, hence saving cost on sludge treatment.
  6. General purpose, broad pH range:4-12£¬particularly 6-10.
