Manufacturing process of Copper Sulphate

Step 1: Raw Material Selection

  • High-purity copper metal or copper oxide (CuO) and sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄) are used.
  • Raw materials undergo strict quality checks for purity.

Step 2: Chemical Reaction & Processing

  • Copper metal or copper oxide reacts with sulfuric acid to form Copper Sulphate solution.
  • The solution is filtered and refined to remove impurities.

Step 3: Crystallization & Drying

  • The solution is evaporated, crystallized, and dried to achieve the required purity.

Step 4: Quality Control & Testing

  • The product is tested for assay, solubility, moisture content, and pH as per IP/BP/USP standards.

Step 5: Packaging & Storage

  • Packed in HDPE bags or fiber drums to prevent contamination.
  • Stored in a cool, dry place to maintain stability.
