• Chemical Composition: Ferrous sulfate heptahydrate (FeSO4·7H2O) is a hydrate of ferrous sulfate, consisting of iron ions (Fe2+), sulfate ions (SO4^2-), and water molecules (H2O).
• Uses: Used in Water Treatment:; Ferrous sulfate heptahydrate is utilized in water treatment processes, including wastewater treatment and drinking water purification, for its ability to precipitate contaminants and improve water quality.; ; Used in Soil Remediation:; It is employed in soil remediation to reduce hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) to less toxic trivalent chromium (Cr(III)) as part of stabilization/solidification treatments to immobilize heavy metal pollutants. ^[2]; ; Used in Animal Feed Supplements:; Ferrous sulfate heptahydrate serves as a source of iron in animal feed supplements, it provides essential iron for the synthesis of hemoglobin and myoglobin to prevent and treat iron-deficiency anemia in livestock.^[3]; ; Used in Silage Fermentation:; It is applied in silage fermentation processes, particularly in the pretreatment of lignocellulosic biomass such as black cane, to accelerate biomass breakdown, improve fermentation quality, and inhibit undesirable microorganisms. ^[1]
• Production Methods: Ferrous sulfate heptahydrate can be synthesized through chemical processes, and its structure can be refined using low-temperature CCD data.
