Food industry: Sulfites are widely used as food additives in wine, beer, dried fruits, pickled foods, bottled and canned foods, and seasonings, mainly for bleaching, anti-corrosion, antioxidant, and anti browning effects. For example, in wine making, sulfites can prevent oxidation and microbial contamination; In dried fruit processing, the color and flavor of the fruit can be maintained.

In the pharmaceutical field, sulfites are used as preservatives in certain drugs, including injectable drugs and some over-the-counter products, to extend the shelf life of drugs.
Industrial use: Sulfites are used as stabilizers for artificial fibers, bleaching agents for fabrics, photographic developers, deoxidizers for dyeing and bleaching, reducing agents for fragrances and dyes, and lignin removers for papermaking. In boiler water treatment, sulfite can be used as a deoxidizer to prevent corrosion of equipment by dissolved oxygen.
Cosmetics and personal care products: Some hair dyeing and bleaching products, hair gels, tanning lotion, cosmetics, sunscreen and deodorant, shampoo, lotion and other personal care products may contain sulfite to prevent corrosion and oxidation.
