Ferric Chloride 40% Solution

1. Product Overview

Ferric Chloride 40% Solution is a high-strength aqueous solution of ferric chloride (FeCl₃) widely used as a coagulant and process chemical in industrial and municipal water and wastewater treatment. It is highly effective for removing suspended solids, phosphorus, organic matter, and other contaminants through rapid coagulation and flocculation. Its strong treatment performance, reliable chemistry, and suitability for continuous dosing make it a strategically important chemical for water-treatment operations and industrial process applications.
