Global Ferric Chloride Market – Growth, Trends & Forecasts (2017-2022) – Research and Markets

DUBLIN–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The "Global
Ferric Chloride Market – Growth, Trends, and Forecasts (2017 – 2022)"
report has been added to Research and Markets' offering.

The demand for ferric chloride is driven by the demand from wastewater
treatment plants for its use as the coagulant due to its high efficiency
and effectiveness in clarification, and utility as a sludge dewatering
agent.

Ferric chloride is an industrial scale commodity chemical compound with
the formula FeCl3 and with iron in the +3 oxidation state. It is
produced industrially, by a reaction of dry chlorine with scrap iron
(direct chlorination), at high temperatures. It is also a by-product of
some metallurgical and chemical processes, such as, the chlorinating
decomposition of iron-bearing oxide ores. Its ready availability and
cheap feedstock, have made iron (III) chloride solution, a widely used
raw material in the water treatment industry. Ferric chloride is used in
wastewater treatment facilities to precipitate phosphorus and then
removing it from the system.

Major restraint for ferric chloride market is stringent regulations
imposed on companies by their respective governments during the
manufacturing and shipment of ferric chloride and its dispersion into
plastic or glass containers. Non-compliance with these regulations leads
to substantial penalties and cancellation of the license.

Apart from high demand of ferric chloride in wastewater treatment plant,
another major driver for this market is strict norms and policies
imposed by various governments for treatment of sewage water and
industrial waste to curtail pollution, like reduction in concentration
of phosphorus from 1.0 ppm to 0.1 ppm. This has led to increase in
consumption of ferric chloride. The global ferric chloride market is
segmented on the basis of application into water and wastewater
treatment, printed circuit boards, and others, which consists of pigment
manufacturing, catalyst etc., where market is heavily dominated by its
application in wastewater treatment.
