Virtual International manufactures and supplies high-quality Ferrous Sulphate Heptahydrate, a pale green crystalline powder widely used across multiple industries. We produce our Ferrous Sulphate as a co-product of the titanium dioxide manufacturing process, ensuring a consistent and cost-effective supply. This highly soluble iron salt is a powerful reducing agent and an effective flocculant. The water treatment industry relies on it for phosphorus removal and coagulation, while cement producers use it to reduce toxic hexavalent chromium. In agriculture, it serves as an essential iron micronutrient and soil conditioner. We deliver a reliable, high-purity product that meets your industrial and environmental application needs.

Key Features & Benefits

• Powerful Reducing Agent: It effectively reduces chromate (Cr-VI to Cr-III) in cement and wastewater, helping manufacturers meet strict environmental regulations.
• Excellent Flocculant: As a coagulant, it neutralizes charges and binds fine particles in water, improving clarification and sludge removal in treatment plants.
• High Water Solubility: The heptahydrate crystal powder dissolves readily in water, making it easy to dose and apply in liquid-phase processes.
• Cost-Effective Solution: We provide a high-performance chemical at a competitive price point, offering excellent value for large-scale applications.
• Essential Iron Source: It provides a readily available source of iron (Fe) to correct deficiencies in soil and serves as a turf conditioner and moss killer in horticulture.

Major Industrial Applications

Water & Wastewater Treatment:

• Treatment facilities use it as a primary coagulant for purifying potable and industrial water. It is particularly effective for phosphate removal to prevent eutrophication.

Cement Manufacturing:

• Cement producers add Ferrous Sulphate during the grinding process to reduce toxic hexavalent chromium (Cr-VI) to the less harmful trivalent form (Cr-III).

Agriculture & Horticulture:

• Farmers and growers use it to amend high-pH (alkaline) soils, making iron more available to plants. It is also applied directly to turf as a moss control agent.

Pigment Production:

• It serves as a primary raw material for manufacturing iron oxide pigments (reds, yellows, blacks), which are used in paints, coatings, and construction materials.
