Ferric Chloride

Ferric Chloride

Ferric Chloride is a dark brown to black solid or solution widely used as a powerful coagulant in water and wastewater treatment, as well as in etching, metal surface treatment, and industrial chemical processes. Usually act as inorganic coagulants for removing suspended solids, phosphates, and etc.

Key Characteristics
  • Chemical Name: Ferric Chloride
  • Chemical Formula: FeCl₃
  • Appearance: 

    Solid: Dark brown to black crystals, Liquid: Brownish-yellow to dark brown solution
  • Odour: Slight, acidic odor
  • Common Concentrations: 35–45% w/w liquid solution; solid anhydrous form
  • Density (liquid): Approx. 1.40–1.50 g/cm³ depending on concentration
  • Melting Point: 306°C (anhydrous solid)
  • Boiling Point: Decomposes before boiling
  • Solubility: Highly soluble in water (exothermic reaction); soluble in alcohol
  • Stability: Stable when stored properly; reacts with moisture forming hydrochloric acid fumes
  • Hazard Nature: Corrosive, acidic, strong oxidizing properties; reacts with metals and bases

Functional Properties

  • Powerful coagulant for removing suspended solids
  • Excellent phosphate and color removal ability
  • Acidic nature helps adjust pH in wastewater streams
  • Reacts with impurities to form flocs for easy sedimentation
  • Strong oxidizing and etching capability
  • Effective in removing heavy metals and organics
  • Used as a reagent in industrial chemical reactions

Common Applications

Water & Wastewater Treatment
  • Removes turbidity, suspended solids, colloids
  • Effective for phosphate removal in municipal wastewater
  • Controls odor and reduces hydrogen sulfide in sewage
  • Used in sludge conditioning and dewatering
Industrial Effluent Treatment
