Best Answer

Too much copper sulphate will cause an over abundance of free copper in the water and will pose a health risk and also a risk of copper staining (black) over the pool finish.

Do not swim. If staining has occurred first add 5L (1 Gallon) of Hydrochloric Acid to the average sized pool (10K Gallons). This will dissolve the copper stain and put it back into the water (maybe some brooming required). Once it is dissolved back into the water begin emptying water from the pool. How much to empty will depend on an accurate reading of what the dissolved (free) copper level is. I prefer no more than 0.2mg/L as an acceptable reading. Therefore if your reading in say 1.0 then you need to remove 80% of the pool water.

Does copper sulfate have a concentration?

A copper sulphate solution can have different concentrations depending on how much copper sulphate crystals have been added into the water. A typical 1 molar solution of copper sulphate would need 250g of CuSO4, mixed with 700ml of H2O, with 10ml of H2SO4 added with another 290ml of water.

Exactly 33,13035046 grams of copper.


How is copper sulphate solution used on a goat farm?

Copper sulphate, otherwise known as bluestone, can be added to water to prevent algal growth but if too much is added will cause copper toxicity. It is also used in some countries at a 10% solution to treat for footrot and it used to be used at a 1% solution for deworming goats prior to the invention of safer more effective drenches.


When you add cooper sulphate in pool is circulation to be on or off For 324Kl water pool how much copper sulphate to be added?

Copper Sulphate is banned in most states. Very toxic stuff. Return the product to the store and get something less toxic and easier to use and that is adequate for the job. Such as Yellow Out or Yellow Treat. Both good products for a green pool.

We are using 5 percent solution of copper sulphate processing 140 ton per hour and consume 885 gm of copper sulphate per 1 ton of ore. what would be the usage of copper sulphate in liters per hour?

885x140=123900grams of copper sulphate per hour. If you are talking about using 885 gm of copper sulphate per ton of ore in the solution then the density of the copper sulphate(penta hydrate now because it's in water) is 2.284 gm per cm3 so that's 2.284x5=11.42gm per liter of solution, so 123900/11.42=10849.387 liters of copper sulphate(pentahydrate) per hour, NOTE:this is only how much copper sulphate is being used total in the solution which is 30% of the total liters used of solution because 25% of the water is inside the copper sulphate, the other 70% is just water. If you want the liters per hour of solution total, it is 34964.62 litres per hour of your 5% solution. I hope this was what you were looking for, I saw noone had answered and decided to try and get you what you needed.
