Ferric Chloride Supplier Vadodara | Liquid & Powder Bulk Gujarat

Ferric chloride (FeCl₃) remains the workhorse coagulant for PCB effluent, phosphate stripping, and sulfide oxidation at chemical and pharmaceutical plants across Gujarat. Drashti Chemicals supplies 40–42% w/w liquid ferric chloride in bulk tankers and HDPE drums from Vadodara, with COA confirming iron content and free-acidity spec. If your ETP log shows rising orthophosphate in discharge despite adequate pH, ferric is usually the first coagulant to trial before moving to more expensive specialty blends.

Two commercial grades matter for procurement: standard industrial (40% min FeCl₃, suitable for water treatment and PCB) and higher-purity variants for sensitive effluent where trace metals in the coagulant could affect reuse-water quality. Confirm chloride load on your receiving stream — high background Cl⁻ may push TDS limits and favour ferric alum or PAC instead. Drashti issues batch COA and MSDS; request metal-impurity panel when supplying to zero-liquid-discharge plants.

Typical dose band is 100–500 mg/L as product depending on phosphate and suspended solids loading. Dose into pH 6.5–8.5 for optimal floc formation; below pH 5 the floc is fragile, above pH 9 excess hydroxide consumes ferric. Use FRP or HDPE day tanks — never carbon steel without rubber lining. Corrosion on dosing lines is the number-one maintenance complaint; schedule quarterly line inspection. Drashti technical team can review your current dose vs. effluent log.

Liquid ferric chloride ships in 35 kg carboys, 250 kg HDPE drums, and ISO tankers for plants above 10 KL/month. MOQ: one drum for trial; standing contracts get bulk quote on request with scheduled tanker slots to Dahej, Jhagadia, and Sanand. Gujarat VAT/GST-compliant invoicing. Store below 35 °C away from direct sun — crystallisation in winter lines is preventable with trace heating on outdoor dosing skids.

Ferric chloride vs. PAC: choose ferric when you need concurrent phosphate precipitation, sulfide removal, or arsenic co-precipitation — PAC handles turbidity alone at lower sludge volume. Ferric vs. ferrous sulphate: ferric acts faster at neutral pH without oxidation step; ferrous needs aeration and adds sulfate load. For colour-heavy textile effluent without phosphate concern, PAC or cationic polyelectrolyte pairing often costs less per kg TSS removed.
