CAL~FLO® Slurry is a high quality liquid calcium hydroxide. It has been used successfully in a broad range of applications in the municipal water and wastewater markets as well as in industrial processes, which require reliable, accurate dosing with safe and low maintenance feed equipment. In addition, because of its low toxicity, calcium hydroxide is used in the food industry in applications such as clarifying raw juice from sugar cane or sugar beets in the sugar industry, processing water for use in alcoholic beverages and soft drinks, among many other applications. CAL~FLO® Slurry is an odorless, white liquid suspension. view less
Ferric Sulfate is a red-brown aqueous solution that is typically sold as a 50% or 60% strength solution, on a dry basis. Based on ferric iron (Fe+3) contents of 10% and 12% respectively for the two concentrations of liquid ferric sulfate, the formula for ...view more
Ferric Sulfate is a red-brown aqueous solution that is typically sold as a 50% or 60% strength solution, on a dry basis. Based on ferric iron (Fe+3) contents of 10% and 12% respectively for the two concentrations of liquid ferric sulfate, the formula for dry ferric sulfate would be Fe2(SO4)3•8.8H2O. The maximum concentration as ferric iron is approximately 13% in commercial liquid products.
Ferric Salts are used in many different municipal and industrial applications. Ferric Salts typically are used in water and wastewater treatment operations as coagulants or flocculants for water clarification, for odor control to minimize hydrogen sulfide release, for phosphorus removal, and as a sludge thickening, conditioning and dewatering agent. view less
