Poly Aluminum Chloride

Poly aluminum chloride is introduced in the consumer market with the industrial name of Poly Aluminum Chloride.

Other names of PAC include basic aluminum chloride, polybasic aluminum chloride, aluminum hydroxide, aluminum oxychloride, and aluminum chlorohydrate.

This product, abbreviated as PAC, is a widely used coagulant; which is widely used instead of two old coagulants, aluminum sulfate and chloroauric and it causes flocculation, reduction of TDS of water, clarification, removal of turbidity and instability of colloids. In terms of appearance, the PAC has 2 types: solid and liquid, which is solid poly aluminum chloride in the form of powder or crystal.

According to its production grades, it is produced and marketed in two colors, from milky white to bright yellow. Liquid poly aluminum chloride is produced in light yellow to reddish yellow color and can be edible or industrial. The pack is produced with 3 types of purity: 9%, 18%, and 30%.

What is poly aluminum chloride?

Poly aluminum chloride is a polymeric and inorganic coagulant. Several applications of this technology have been developed over the past few years, including the treatment of drinking water, sewage, agricultural and industrial effluents, and wastewater.

This inorganic coagulant is very efficient in the world and forms stable compounds with many inorganic and organic substances.

This substance is used in the food, cosmetic, and leather industries, in the public sector, in drinking water purification and conditioning, in water purification processes for thermal power plants, regional power stations, steam boilers, and for swimming pool water purification mainly in the cold season.

During the separation and extraction of water impurities, this industrial material operates at high power and speed. China, Canada, America, Italy, France, and England are among the countries using poly aluminum chloride as a coagulant agent in their water purification systems.

Throughout Iran, this material replaces old coagulants (aluminum sulfate and chloroferric) in many industries.

Features and characteristics of aluminum chloride

Among the unique and special characteristics of poly aluminum chloride are having a long life, not changing the PH of the water, reducing consumption, coagulant amount, being strong and effective, producing little sludge or waste, high efficiency, ease and Ease of use, hygiene, reduction of water corrosion activity, reduction of costs of neutralization after coagulation, no temperature limit, efficiency, and reasonable price. Due to its higher purity percentage, higher molecular weight, and better coagulant properties, poly aluminum chloride is more commonly used than other coagulants and has many supporters.
