Detailed Project Report on zinc sulphate, monohydrate & hepta hydrate

                                                 ZINC SULPHATE MONOHYDRATE & HEPTA HYDRATE

     Zinc sulphate is a widely used chemical and has been  known under the name of "White Vitriol".  Although Zinc Sulphate  (mono hydrate)  occurs  in  nature  in  small  quantities  as   mineral Glosarite, this compound is normally manufactured synthetically.

     It is the colourless white free flowing powder. It exists in powder  form  of hydrates as, ZnSo4.H2O.  Zinc sulphate  is  also found  in   three hydrates forms whose  molecular  formula's  are ZnSo4.4H2O,ZnSo4.H2O  .  The unstable hydrates are  more  soluble than stable form.  The solubility of the unstable hydrate is 58.7 gm  in 10 gm of water at 18oc while stable shows only 52.7 gm  in 100  grams.   The  important & popular  commercial  form  of  the compound is ZnSo4.7H2O Heptahydrated (21%), & ZnSO4. H2O.


     In  1978  Mr. P.N. Thakar and Mr. N.S.  Randhewa  of  Punjab Agriculture  University  Ludhiana worked  on  "Micronutrients  in Indian  Agiculture" and established the areas of Zinc  deficiency based on sail test and crop responses.


     In reference to Bihar state they found that zinc  deficiency varies  from  25%  to 75% and even more of the normal value.   It was   also shown that the response of zinc sulphate was good  for rice potato tea in particular and for all the cereals as a whole.


     The  process used for the manufacture  of zinc  sulphate  on commercial  scale  is  simple but technical  grade  salt  can  be produced  by treating zinc ash or zinc dross (a waste by  product form  galvanizing units) with sulphuric acid and  then  filtering the slurry followed by concentration of the dilute zinc  sulphate solution  and  finally  during the  crystals  of  ZnSo4.7H2O  are separated   form  mother  liquor  in  a  high  speed   centrifuge crystallizer. The product is then dehydrated to ZnSo4.H2O .
