Iron Control Liquid Neutral
Part No: RXSOL-81-8167-025
Iron Control Liquid Neutral pH
Iron Control Agent – Neutral Liquid is a concentrated, water-soluble iron sequestrant and stabilizing agent designed to control soluble and potentially precipitating iron in industrial water systems, oilfield operations, chemical cleaning systems, process water, and related applications.
The product is formulated using a synergistic combination of chelating agents, sequestrants, reducing agents, and buffering components. It helps maintain iron in a soluble and controlled form and reduces the risk of formation of insoluble iron compounds during changes in pH, oxidation state, temperature, or process conditions.
The formulation is designed to operate at approximately neutral pH, making it easier to handle compared with strongly acidic iron-control products.
The product is particularly effective in controlling ferric and ferrous iron contamination where dissolved iron may otherwise precipitate as iron hydroxides, oxides, sulfides, or other insoluble deposits.
Application
Function of Iron Control Liquid
Iron Control Agent Neutral Liquid functions through several complementary mechanisms.
Chelation
The complex component forms stable soluble complexes with iron ions, particularly Fe³⁺ and Fe²⁺, thereby reducing the tendency of iron to precipitate.
Sequestration
RXSOL Iron Control Liquid supplements the primary chelation system and helps keep metal ions dispersed and soluble in aqueous systems.
Reduction of Ferric Iron
RXSOL Iron Control Liquid functions as a reducing agent and assists in converting highly reactive ferric iron, Fe³⁺, into the more manageable ferrous state, Fe²⁺.
Ferric iron is often considerably more problematic because it can rapidly form insoluble hydroxides or react with sulfide-containing systems.
Buffering and Secondary Complexing
RXSOL Iron Control Liquid provides additional metal-ion complexation while helping maintain formulation stability and pH control.
Dosage
Typical dosage for water treatment:
100-1,000 ppm
For severe iron contamination:
1,000-5,000 ppm
Dosage entirely depends on the acidization and other chemistry.
Oilfield Acidizing / Well Stimulation
Typical starting dosage:
0.5-2.0% by volume of treatment fluid
Actual dosage should be determined from expected dissolved iron loading and compatibility testing.
For high iron levels, additional treatment may be required.
