Application prospects of polymeric ferric sulfate
Polyized ferrosulfate (Pfs) has shown broad application prospects in many fields with its high efficiency, environmental protection and multifunctional characteristics. Combining with the current technology development trend and market demand, its future development direction is mainly reflected in the following aspects:
1. Core drivers
Environmental protection policies were strengthened
Environmental regulations are tightening globally, requiring industrial wasteWater Treatment and drinking water purification scenarios to meet higher standards. PFS is the preferred agent due to its efficient removal of heavy metals, organic pollutants and phosphorus.
Water resource shortage and pollution control demand
Global water shortage and water quality deterioration have intensified, upgrading water treatment technology. PFS occupies an important position in the water purifier market with its low cost and low residue characteristics.
Technology innovation and cost optimization
The improvement of production process reduces the production cost of PFS, while improving product stability and efficiency, expanding its application scope from traditional water treatment to agriculture, metal processing and other fields.
2. Key application areas
1. Water treatment industry
Municipal and Industrial Water treatment
PFS can quickly remove suspended matter, COD and heavy metal ions in sewage treatment, especially suitable for wastewater treatment in printing and dyeing, electroplating, papermaking and other high-pollution industries.
Drinking water purification
Its low aluminum and low chlorine characteristics avoid the risk of secondary pollution, and can effectively decolorize, remove turbidity and kill pathogens, and ensure the safety of drinking water.
sludge dewatering
Accelerate sludge particle aggregation, improve deaggregation efficiency and reduce the subsequent treatment cost through charge neutralization.
2. Industrial field expansion
metal finishing
As a cleaning agent and rust prevention agent, PFS can remove the oil on the metal surface and form a protective film, prolong the life of metal products, and is widely used in electroplating, tanning and other industries.
Pulp and dye industry
Used as deinking agent in paper industry to improve paper whiteness, and used as raw material of iron dye in dye production to facilitate the optimization of textile dyeing process.
Modification of the cellulose products
Improve the corrosion resistance, wear resistance and flame resistance of cellulose materials, and optimize the plate production process as a binder.
3. Agriculture and environmental protection
Soil improvement and plant growth regulation
PFS can enhance soil permeability, promote nutrient uptake, and act as a plant growth regulator to enhance crop disease resistance.
Water body eutrophication treatment
By removing excessive nitrogen, phosphorus and other nutrients in the water, the excessive reproduction of algae is inhibited and the ecological balance of the water body is maintained.
3. Market growth trend
The market size continues to expand
The global PFS market size will be about 8.9 billion yuan in 2022, and is expected to grow at an average annual growth rate of 14.5%. After 2024, it will be further extended to agricultural irrigation and urban water supply.
Differences in regional demand were significant
Developing countries have increased demand for sewage treatment with accelerated industrialization, and developed countries focus on drinking water safety and application of soil remediation technology.
4. Challenges and opportunities coexist
technical barrier
Product purity and stability need to be further improved to cope with the stringent requirements of high-end application scenarios (such as wastewater treatment in the electronics industry).
Emerging market potential
The promotion of infrastructure construction in Africa, Southeast Asia and other regions provides new opportunities for the penetration of PFS in the regional water system.
sum up
The application prospect of polyferric sulfate is driven by environmental demand, technological innovation and cross-field expansion. Its deep penetration in water treatment, industrial manufacturing, agricultural environmental protection and other fields, combined with the global market layout, will promote the sustained and rapid growth of the industry. In the future, enterprises need to further release the diversified value potential of PFS through technological iteration and scenario adaptation.
