  2. Iron(III) sulfate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron(III)_sulfate

    Iron(III) sulfate (or ferric sulfate), is a family of inorganic compounds with the formula Fe 2 (SO 4) 3 (H 2 O) n. A variety of hydrates are known, including the most commonly encountered form of "ferric sulfate". Solutions are used in dyeing as a mordant, and as a coagulant for industrial wastes. Solutions of ferric sulfate are also used in ...

  3. Coagulation (water treatment) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coagulation_(water_treatment)

    The coagulation-flocculation process can be used as a preliminary or intermediary step between other water or wastewater treatment processes like filtration and sedimentation. Iron and aluminium salts are the most widely used coagulants but salts of other metals such as titanium and zirconium have been found to be highly effective as well. [1] [2]

  4. Iron(II) sulfate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron(II)_sulfate

    Iron(II) sulfate outside a titanium dioxide factory in Kaanaa, Pori, Finland. Upon dissolving in water, ferrous sulfates form the metal aquo complex [Fe(H 2 O) 6] 2+, which is an almost colorless, paramagnetic ion. On heating, iron(II) sulfate first loses its water of crystallization and the original green crystals are converted into a white ...

  5. Coagulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coagulation

    Coagulation, also known as clotting, is the process by which blood changes from a liquid to a gel, forming a blood clot. It results in hemostasis, the cessation of blood loss from a damaged vessel, followed by repair. The process of coagulation involves activation, adhesion and aggregation of platelets, as well as deposition and maturation of ...

  6. Human iron metabolism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_iron_metabolism

    Human iron metabolism is the set of chemical reactions that maintain human homeostasis of iron at the systemic and cellular level. Iron is both necessary to the body and potentially toxic. Controlling iron levels in the body is a critically important part of many aspects of human health and disease.

  7. Fenton's reagent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fenton's_reagent

    The free radicals generated by this process engage in secondary reactions. For example, the hydroxyl is a powerful, non-selective oxidant. [6] Oxidation of an organic compound by Fenton's reagent is rapid and exothermic and results in the oxidation of contaminants to primarily carbon dioxide and water.

  8. Iron poisoning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_poisoning

    It is unlikely to get iron poisoning from diet alone with iron supplements being the cause of overdose. The amount of elemental iron in an iron supplement can be calculate based on the percentage it constitutes for per tablet. For example, a 300 mg tablet of ferrous fumarate will contain 100 mg of elemental iron or 33%.

  9. Antihemorrhagic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antihemorrhagic

    Anhydrous aluminium sulfate is the main ingredient and acts as a vasoconstrictor in order to disable blood flow. The stick is applied directly to the bleeding site. The high ionic strength promotes flocculation of the blood, and the astringent chemical causes local vasoconstriction
