FERROUS CHLORIDE SOLUTION

FERROUS CHLORIDE SOLUTION is a concentrated solution of iron II chloride (FeCl₂) in water. It is produced from high-purity raw materials through the dissolution of iron oxide in hydrochloric acid. Its principal uses in wastewater treatment include phosphate precipitation and removal, elimination of sulfide-based odors, reduction of arsenic and mercury, hexavalent chrome reduction, and struvite control.

    Storage & Handling

    Handling Information
    • Ferrous Chloride is considered to be hazardous by definition of the Hazard Communication Standard (29 CFR 1910.1200) and should be handled in a manner that is consistent with acceptable practices.
    • Under normal situations the only protective equipment required in the use and handling of Liquid Ferrous Chloride are splash proof chemical goggles and rubber gloves.  
    • Liquid Ferrous Chloride will stain both clothing and skin and it is recommended that, to protect against this occurrence, other protect clothing be worn as is appropriate.
    • Ferric Chloride reacts with many metals.  
    • However, most handling situations are reliably addressed through the use of common plastic materials such as FRP, PVC, Polyethylene, Polypropylene and Teflon. For additional information consult your equipment supplier.
