Copper sulphate is a very versatile chemical with as extensive a range of uses in industry. It is also used as an algaecide, an herbicide in irrigation and municipal water treatment systems, and as a molluscicide, a material used to repel and kill slugs and snails. It is available in the following formulations: dusts, wettable powders, and fluid concentrates. Up to a generation or so ago about its only uses in industry were as a mordant for dyeing and for electroplating, but today it is being employed in many industrial processes. The synthetic fibre industry has found an application for it in the production of their raw material. The metal industry uses large quantities of copper sulphate as an electrolyte in copper refining, for copper coating steel wire prior to wire drawing and in various copper plating processes. The mining industry employs it as an activator in the concentration by froth flotation of lead, zinc, cobalt and gold ores. The printing trade takes it as an electrolyte in the production of electrotype and as an etching agent for process engraving. The paint industry uses it in anti-fouling paints and it plays a part in the colouring of glass. Indeed, today there is hardly an industry which does not have some small use for copper sulphate.

Copper sulphate has many agricultural uses but the following are the more important ones:

– Preparation of Bordeaux and Burgundy mixtures on the farm
– Control of fungus diseases
– Correction of copper deficiency in soils
– Correction of copper deficiency in animals
– Stimulation of growth for fattening pigs and broiler chickens
– A molluscicide for the destruction of slugs and snails, particularly the snail host of the liver fluke
