Selecting the appropriate water treatment chemical and using it correctly are vital for achieving desired outcomes and maximizing efficiency. Polymeric Ferric Sulfate (PFS) is a highly effective coagulant, but its performance can be optimized through careful selection and application. NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. provides practical guidance for optimal use of PFS.

When selecting PFS, consider the specific requirements of your water or wastewater. Factors such as the type and concentration of pollutants, the target water quality, and the pH of the raw water are crucial. PFS is available in different grades, often specified by its iron content and basicity. For instance, higher iron content generally indicates greater coagulating power. Consult with your supplier, like NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD., to determine the most suitable grade for your application.

The application method for PFS typically involves dilution and then dosage. Solid PFS products are usually diluted with water to form a solution, commonly in the range of 2% to 20% concentration by weight. This diluted solution is then further prepared into a dosing solution, often at 2-5% concentration for wastewater treatment. It is important to use clean water for dilution. If reclaimed water is used, a small amount of precipitation is a normal phenomenon.

Determining the optimal dosage is critical for both effectiveness and cost-efficiency. This is best achieved through jar testing or pilot studies tailored to your specific water matrix. Generally, the dosage of PFS is lower than that of traditional coagulants like aluminum sulfate or ferric chloride. Typical dosages can range from 1 to 15 grams per ton of water treated, but this will vary significantly based on water quality. Overdosing can lead to inefficient treatment and increased costs, while underdosing will result in incomplete contaminant removal.

Proper handling and storage are also essential to maintain the quality and efficacy of PFS. Solid PFS is hygroscopic and should be stored in a dry, well-ventilated area, protected from moisture and direct sunlight. It should not be mixed with other chemicals during storage. When handling, appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) should be worn to avoid contact with skin and eyes.

By understanding the selection criteria and following recommended application methods, industries and municipalities can harness the full potential of Polymeric Ferric Sulfate.
