What is poly Aluminium chloride (PAC)?

Poly Aluminium Chloride (PAC) has emerged as a valuable and versatile tool in water treatment processes, it plays a crucial role in making water safe for consumption, industrial use, and environmental preservation. Why we use Poly Aluminium Chloride (PAC) for water treatment?

Is polyaluminium chloride a safe coagulant?

Polyaluminium Chloride is a safer alternative to several other chemical coagulants. For instance, aluminium sulphate has been widely used as coagulant for many years. It removes contaminates and general turbidity from water during the water treatment process.

Is Pac better than aluminium sulfate flocculant?

Comparing to aluminium sulfate flocculant, the quality of water treated with PAC is better; the total cost reduced by 15%~30%, and the solubility is better. It can be applied to water with broad pH range. The floc function valid in water of pH 5 to pH 9

Why is PAC used in water treatment?

PAC helps reduce the overall cost of water treatment by 15-30%. Compared to inorganic coagulants or flocculants, PAC is suited to broad water temperature including at low temperature. Water treated using PAC has fewer salts content and can be used for ion-exchange treatment. PAC contains lower corrosivity level and is easy to handle and operate.

What is polyaluminium chloride used for?

Polyaluminium chloride (aluminium chlorohydrate) also simply called PAC, is used in deodorants and as a coagulant in water purification. This compound is preferred in some cases because of its high charge, which makes it more effective at destabilizing and removing suspended materials than other aluminium salts. CAS No.: 1327-41-9

Is PAC a good flocculant?

The floc function valid in water of pH 5 to pH 9 Comparing to inorganic flocculants, PAC is suitable for water of broad temperature, and is functional in low temperature water. It reduces less basicity less, so less or no basifier needed. The corrosivity of PAC is lower, easy to transfer, handle and operate.
