Ferrous Sulphate Heptahydrate Water Treatment

We are the popular exporter, manufacturer and supplier of Ferrous Sulphate Heptahydrate water treatment in Nanjing, Jiangsu, China. Iron(II) sulfate (British English: iron(II) sulphate) or ferrous sulfate are salts with the formula FeSO4.xH2O. These compounds exist most commonly as the heptahydrate (x = 7) but are known for several values of x. The hydrated form is used medically to treat iron deficiency, and also for industrial applications. Known since ancient times as copperas and as green vitriol, the blue-green heptahydrate is the most common form of this material. All iron sulfates dissolve in water to give the same aquo complex [Fe(H2O)6]2+, which has octahedral molecular geometry and is paramagnetic. In horticulture it is used for treating iron chlorosis. Although not as rapid-acting as iron chelate, its effects are longer-lasting. It can be mixed with compost and dug into to the soil to create a store which can last for years.[19] It is also used as a lawn conditioner, and moss killer.
