01 / Applications and trials

Plan a trial for your application

Industrial wastewater reduction

Measure redox parameters and endpoint residuals in representative site water. Verify the instrument method.

Reductive pulp or textile processing

Compare whiteness, shade and downstream residue on the same substrate within the same operating window.

02 / Quality and acceptance

Purchase specifications and incoming inspection

Include the intended grade or current specification in the enquiry. Use the table to compare selection criteria and inspection conditions. The specification agreed by both parties defines the contractual limits. ENVO public product information · Verify against the ordered grade and lot ↗

Property Unit Published or agreed specification Test conditions and checks
Active ingredient Mass fraction Specify whether expressed as Na₂S₂O₅ or SO₂. Confirm the reporting basis and use the same method for retesting.
Iron mg/kg Set an upper limit for the required product color. Report as elemental Fe and check the method and quantification limit.
Insolubles after dissolution Mass fraction Set the limit from allowable process residue. Record water quality, filtration method and elapsed time after opening.

When approving a sample, record the grade, methods, limits and specification revision. On receipt, match the packing lot number to the lot-specific COA and record the measured values and release decision.

Chemical identity

Database entry Molecular or composition formula Molar mass
Sodium Pyrosulfite Na2O5S2 190.11 g/mol

The values refer to the compound indicated. Confirm hydrate form, solution concentration and blend composition for the commercial grade.

03 / Packaging and delivery

From samples to commercial delivery

Packaging and receiving

The public listing specifies PE-lined woven bags. Choose unit net weight with shift demand and moisture-resistant reclosure in mind.

Storage and handling

Keep reducing-capacity results and opening date on receipt. Verify segregation and storage against the applicable SDS.

Sample and order lead times

State the concentration or hydrate, initial net quantity, destination and unloading method. Confirm minimum order, pallet or truckload quantity, dispatch point and arrival date separately.

04 / Troubleshooting

Questions from the plant

Why does oxidant remain at the same product feed rate?

Measure the target residual before and after treatment in actual influent and retain the feed lot record.

How can metabisulphite and SO₂-equivalent quotations be compared?

Verify actual composition and the conversion used on both reports. Compare the same reducing equivalent and delivered net weight.

Report a delivery or batch issue

Include the order number, lot number from the package, label photos and inspection records for the affected lot. When retesting, check Active ingredient, Iron content, moisture protection after opening.
