Hydroxylammonium chloride is a chemical compound with the formula [NH3OH]+Cl. It is the hydrochloric acid salt of hydroxylamine (NH2OH). Hydroxylamine is a biological intermediate in nitrification (biological oxidation of ammonia with oxygen into nitrite) and in anammox (biological oxidation of nitrite and ammonium into dinitrogen gas) which are important in the nitrogen cycle in soil and in wastewater treatment plants.
