ChEBI: Iron(2+) sulfate monohydrate is a hydrate that is the monohydrate form of iron(2+) sulfate. It is obtained from the heptahydrate by heating above 65℃. It is used as a source of iron in the treatment of iron-deficiency anaemia (generally in solid-dosage treatments; for liquid-dosage treatments, the heptahydrate is normally used). It has a role as a nutraceutical, an anti-anaemic agent and a reducing agent. It is a hydrate and an iron molecular entity. It contains an iron(2+) sulfate (anhydrous). | [Synthesis]
The method for producing ferrous sulfate monohydrate includes the following steps:
a. Taking ferrous sulfate heptahydrate, a by-product of titanium dioxide production by sulfuric acid method, as raw material, heating the ferrous sulfate heptahy |

Ferrous sulfate monohydrate is used to manufacture pigments such as iron oxide red; in agriculture, it is used as a herbicide, soil conditioner, and foliar fertilizer. Granular products are popular fertilizers abroad, which can effectively improve soil and remove moss and lichen; it can also be used as a pesticide to control diseases in wheat and fruit trees; and it can also be used as an intermediate raw material in chemical, electronic and biochemical industries. |
