Ferric Chloride 38-42% Solution is a light brown aqueous solution with a slight hydrochloric acid odor. It is highly corrosive to most metals and noncombustible. It is primarily used in water and waste water treatment as a flocculant, but it's also used as a chemical intermediate in metal treating, as an etching agent in printed circuit boards and electronics and odor control.

Ferric chloride is a highly effective coagulant and chemical agent used across various industries. Available in liquid or solid form, it is known for its superior ability to rapidly form dense, fast-settling flocs, making it ideal for water and wastewater treatment. It is also widely used in metal etching, pH adjustment, and industrial processes. Ferric chloride is cost-effective, easy to handle, and offers broad pH adaptability, ensuring consistent performance in diverse applications.
Applications:
1.Water Treatment
Removes heavy metals, suspended solids, and organic contaminants.
Enhances water clarity and reduces turbidity.
Suitable for drinking water purification and industrial water treatment.
2.Wastewater Treatment
Effective in treating industrial effluents and municipal wastewater.
Reduces chemical oxygen demand (COD) and biological oxygen demand (BOD).
Forms stable precipitates, minimizing sludge volume and disposal costs.
3.pH Adjustment
Neutralizes acidic or alkaline solutions.
Helps maintain optimal pH levels in industrial processes.
