Description

Iron(III) sulfate is a chemical compound that is widely used in the water treatment industry. It is usually used to remove dissolved iron from water, which can cause staining and unwanted odors. The optimum concentration of Iron(III) sulfate for wastewater treatment ranges from 0.2 to 1.0 milligrams per liter (mg/L). This chemical has been shown to form adducts with alkanoic acids and coumarin derivatives, which are important in the reaction mechanism of this compound. Thermodynamic data indicate that Iron(III) sulfate does not have any carcinogenic potential or particle formation properties. Iron(III) sulfate reacts with other chemicals to produce sulfur dioxide gas and hydrogen sulfide gas, which are acidic compounds with a redox potential of -0.6 volts.
