Advantage of Ferric Chloride Iron(III) Chloride Hexahydrate

1. Ferric chloride has good flocculation effect,can be used in the activated sludge dehydration.

2. Ferric chloride can generate discrete and close-grained floc and sedimentate quickly, it also have good sedimentation effect in low temperature water.

3. It has low solubility, adapts a wide applicable PH range. Used as filter aid can greatly improve the effect of turbidity removal.

4. Ferric chloride is an important kind of water treatment agent and have remarkable effect when used in waste water of high turbidity.
