Ferrous Sulfate Monohydrate – A High-Purity Chemical with Broad Applications
Ferrous Sulfate Monohydrate, with the chemical formula FeSO4·H2O, is a gray-green, odorless powder. Produced in our modern facilities in Izmir Torbalı, it is derived from dissolving iron oxides and drying the resulting ferrous sulfate solution in a Spray Dryer unit. Our product is fully water-soluble and contains a minimum of 31% iron (Fe). With an annual production capacity of 15,000 tons, we offer a high-quality product for industrial and agricultural applications.
Applications
Cement Industry: Ferrous sulfate offers a cost advantage in cement production and enhances the strength of cement. This results in more durable cement being produced at a lower cost.
Agriculture: Iron deficiency hinders chlorophyll synthesis in plants, stunting growth. Plants, especially in high-pH calcareous soils, struggle to absorb iron. Ferrous sulfate lowers soil pH, improving iron uptake and promoting healthy plant growth. It also helps grasses become more resistant to frost in winter and appear greener. Additionally, it is effective in inhibiting moss and harmful weeds.
Fruit and Vegetable Cultivation: Ferrous sulfate prevents color degradation caused by organic acids in fruits and vegetables. It is also used in legumes to maintain color protection.
Chemical Industry: Ferrous sulfate is used in the production of chemicals such as sulfur dioxide and sulfuric acid. Additionally, FeSO4·7H2O is preferred in chromium reduction, providing high reduction capability.
Nutritional Supplements: Ferrous sulfate is used in nutritional supplements for the treatment and prevention of iron deficiency. Ferrous Sulfate Monohydrate serves as a reliable iron source in non-pharmaceutical supplements.
Feed Additive: According to the European Union Commission Implementing Regulation 2017/2330, it is used as a feed additive with the designation number 3b103. It provides iron supplementation in animal feeds.
