Ferric Nitrate is an inorganic chemical compound that finds a broad range of industrial applications. It is widely used in various chemical and commercial applications. It is also used as a catalyst in the synthesis of various chemical compounds. It also finds its application in the etching of metals like silver and its alloys, often used for engraving metal surfaces. It is also utilized in wastewater treatment to get rid of sulfides as well as nitrogen, phosphorus, and other impurities from polluted water bodies. It is often used as an important reagent in qualitative and quantitative analysis. Its corrosion-controlling properties make it useful as an etchant in metal surface treatment. Moreover, it also helps in the coloration and preservation of fabrics by facilitating the process of tanning and dyeing textiles.

The primary factor driving the market for Ferric Nitrate is the increasing demand in various industrial applications, such as chemical synthesis, metalworking, and wastewater treatment. Its application as a catalyst in the production of various chemical compounds largely promotes its demand in the chemical manufacturing industry. Its utilization as a component in the etching of metals also fuels its demand in the metalworking and manufacturing industries.

Its involvement in the water treatment industry for the removal of impurities from water bodies further enhances its demand in the water treatment industry. Its usage in the textile industry, particularly in processes like tanning and dyeing, also contributes to its growing market. With the increase in technological advancement and the development of more efficient production techniques largely impact Industrial Ferric Nitrate procurement. The cost and the availability of raw materials necessary for the production of Ferric Nitrate, such as nitric acid and iron, also affect its procurement.

Raw Material for Ferric Nitrate Production

According to the Ferric Nitrate manufacturing plant project report, the major raw materials for Ferric Nitrate production include Scrap Iron/Iron Oxide-Nitric Acid.

Manufacturing Process of Ferric Nitrate

The extensive Ferric Nitrate production cost report consists of the following industrial manufacturing process:

• Production from Iron Scrap or Iron Oxide: This method of production involves the use of scrap iron or iron oxide and nitric acid as the raw materials for the synthesis of ferric nitrate as the product. The process begins with the chemical reaction of scrap iron/iron oxide with concentrated nitric acid, which results in the formation of ferric nitrate as the desired product.

Ferric Nitrate is a violet crystalline compound that consists of one iron, three nitrogen, and nine oxygen atoms. The chemical formula of the compound is Fe(NO3)3, and its molecular weight is 241.86 g/mol. This non-combustible chemical can accelerate the combustion of other materials. It has a melting point of around 47.2 °C and typically decomposes before reaching its boiling point. The boiling point is around 125 °C, and the density of the compound is 1.68 g/cm3. Ferric Nitrate is freely soluble in water and can also dissolve in organic solvents like alcohol and acetone, and is slightly soluble in cold, concentrated nitric acid. The compound is toxic and hazardous, though it has no odor. While non-flammable itself, it can contribute to the combustion of other substances. Prolonged exposure to large quantities of Ferric Nitrate can pose explosion risks. It produces toxic nitrogen oxides upon heating.
