Ph 8.0-9.0 58%~60% Sodium Acetate White Particle for Dechlorinator Origin Weifang
Sodium acetate properties
1. Chemical properties
Chemical formula: CH₃COONa
Molecular weight: 82.03 g/mol (anhydrous matter); 136.08 g/mol (trihydrate)
Structure: Composed of the radical acetate ion (CH₃COO⁻) and sodium ion (Na +).
pH value: The aqueous solution is weakly alkaline, pH is about 8-9.
2. Physical properties
Appearance:
Anhydrous sodium acetate: white crystalline powder.
Sodium acetate trihydrate (CH₃COONa·3H₂O) : colorless transparent crystal.
Solubility:
Soluble in water, solubility increases significantly with temperature (at 20°C, about 46.5 g per 100 mL of water).
Slightly soluble in ethanol, insoluble.
Melting point:
Anhydrous sodium acetate: 324°C.
Sodium acetate trihydrate: 58°C (dehydration decomposition).
Density:
Anhydrous sodium acetate: 1.528 g/cm³.
Sodium acetate trihydrate: 1.45g /cm³.
Hygroscopic: Sodium acetate trihydrate is easy to hygroscopic, and anhydrous sodium acetate hygroscopic is low.
3. Thermal stability
Heated decomposition. When heated to high temperatures, sodium acetate decomposes to
form sodium carbonate (Na₂CO₃) and methane (CH₄)
How about sodium acetate dechlorinator
1. Principle of dechlorination
Chemical reaction:
Sodium acetate can react with residual chlorine in water (e.g., hypochlorous acid, HOCl) to form harmless chlorides:
Through the reaction, sodium acetate converts residual chlorine into acetic acid and sodium chloride,
thereby removing residual chlorine from the water.
Buffer effect:
Sodium acetate aqueous solution is weakly alkaline, which can neutralize the acidity of
residual chlorine and further reduce the activity of residual chlorine.
2. Application scenario
(1) Drinking water treatment
Residual chlorine removal:
It is used to remove residual chlorine from tap water and improve taste and safety.
Adjust pH value:
Sodium acetate regulates the pH of the water, making it more drinkable.
(2) Industrial water treatment
Boiler water treatment:
Used to remove residual chlorine in boiler water to prevent equipment corrosion.
Cooling water system:
It is used to remove residual chlorine in cooling water and extend the service life of equipment.
(3) Wastewater treatment
Dechlorination treatment:
It is used to remove residual chlorine in industrial wastewater and meet discharge standards.
Step 3: Advantages
Environmental protection:
Sodium acetate is environmentally friendly and the reaction products (acetic acid and sodium chloride) are harmless.
Security:
Sodium acetate has low toxicity to human body and is safe to use.
Versatility:
Sodium acetate can not only dechlorinate, but also regulate pH and act as a carbon source.
4. Limitations
Dechlorination efficiency:
The dechlorination efficiency of sodium acetate is relatively low, and it is suitable for water bodies with
low residual chlorine concentration.
Cost:
Sodium acetate has a high cost compared to other dechlorinating agents, such as sodium sulfite.
Reaction speed:
The reaction rate of sodium acetate with residual chlorine is slow and may require a longer reaction time.
