High-Efficiency Poly Ferric Chloride (PFC) – Advanced Coagulant for Wastewater & Heavy Metal Removal

Product Overview

Poly Ferric Chloride (PFC) is a inorganic polymer coagulant designed for superior wastewater treatment performance. It combines the high coagulation efficiency of Polyaluminum Chloride (PAC) with the strong phosphorus removal, decolorization, and heavy metal precipitation capabilities of Ferric Chloride (FeCl₃).

With its dense floc formation, rapid settling speed, low residual iron, and wide pH adaptability, PFC is particularly effective for municipal wastewater and complex industrial effluents. It is the preferred choice for treatment plants aiming to improve effluent quality, reduce operating costs, and achieve compliance with strict discharge standards.

Key Benefits of Poly Ferric Chloride

• Superior Phosphorus Removal & Decolorization
  Effectively binds and precipitates phosphate ions, delivering phosphorus removal rates significantly higher than aluminum-based coagulants. (learn more about wastewater phosphorus removal guidelines). Also provides excellent decolorization for colored wastewater.

• Efficient Heavy Metal Removal
  Ferric hydroxide flocs adsorb and co-precipitate toxic metals such as arsenic, copper, chromium, lead, and cadmium, making PFC highly effective in electroplating, metallurgy, and mining wastewater treatment.

• Dense, Fast-Settling Flocs
  Produces sturdy flocs that settle quickly, increasing treatment efficiency and reducing sedimentation tank size requirements.

• Wide pH Operating Range (5.0–11.0)
  Ensures stable performance and operational flexibility across diverse wastewater conditions.

• Low Residual Iron & Clear Effluent
  Delivers crystal-clear treated water with minimal risk of secondary yellowing.

• Reliable Cold-Weather Performance
  Outperforms PAC in low-temperature conditions, ensuring stable treatment results year-round.

Applications of Poly Ferric Chloride

• Municipal Wastewater – Advanced phosphorus removal & polishing treatment.

• Industrial Effluents:

  • Phosphorus-rich wastewater (electronics, pesticide, fertilizer industries).

  • Heavy metal wastewater (electroplating, metallurgy, mining).

  • High-color wastewater (printing, dyeing, papermaking, textile).

  • Oily wastewater (oil refining, machinery, petrochemical).

• Landfill Leachate – Effective in removing both phosphorus and toxic metals.

• Potable Water Pre-treatment – Suitable for raw water with high turbidity and color, ensuring compliance with WHO drinking water quality standards

Recommended Usage

• Preparation:

  • Solid PFC: Dissolve into 5–10% aqueous solution before dosing.

  • Liquid PFC: Can be dosed directly or diluted if required.

• Typical Dosage: 0.1–1.0 kg/ton of water (as solid product), optimized by jar test.

• Dosing Point: Add at the inlet of the reaction tank for thorough mixing.

Precautions for Using Poly Ferric Chloride

When handling and applying Poly Ferric Chloride, follow these safety and operational precautions to ensure safe use and optimal performance:

1. Personal Protection

   • Wear protective gloves, goggles, and acid-resistant clothing to avoid skin and eye contact. For more details on safe handling of ferric chloride-based coagulants, refer to OSHA chemical guidelines

   • In case of accidental contact, wash the affected area immediately with plenty of water.

2. Safe Handling

   • It is acidic . Avoid inhalation of dust (solid grade) or mist (liquid grade).

   • Ensure good ventilation in storage and dosing areas.

   • Never mix PFC with alkalis, reducing agents, or strong oxidizers to prevent unwanted reactions.

3. Condições de armazenamento

   • Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated warehouse.

   • Protect from direct sunlight, rain, and freezing.

   • Keep solid bags tightly sealed; liquid tanks should be corrosion-resistant (plastic or rubber-lined steel).

4. Operational Precautions

   • Always perform a jar test before full-scale application to determine the optimal dosage.

   • Add PFC at the head of the reaction tank to ensure proper mixing with raw water.

   • Avoid excessive dosing, which may lead to higher sludge volume and increased treatment costs.

5. Environmental & Disposal Guidelines

   • Sludge generated after treatment should be handled in compliance with local regulations.

   • Prevent spillage into soil or natural water bodies to avoid environmental impact.

6. Emergency Response

   • In case of spillage, neutralize with lime or soda ash before disposal.

   • For accidental ingestion, seek immediate medical attention—do not induce vomiting.

Packaging and Storage:

• Sólido: High-end laminated woven bags 50 kg per bag. Customized packaging options are available upon request.
• Requisitos de armazenamento: Keep in a cool, dry, ventilated place. Protect from moisture.
