What is polyaluminium chloride (PAC)?

Polyaluminium Chloride (PAC) is a versatile chemical used extensively in water treatment and various industrial processes. Its growing importance across multiple sectors underscores its effectiveness in treating wastewater, purifying drinking water, and meeting the stringent environmental standards required today.

Why is polyaluminum chloride a good coagulant for water treatment?

Polyaluminum chloride (PAC) is highly effective coagulant for water treatment over conventional coagulants because of low dosage requirement, shorter flocculation time, smaller amount of sludge, high efficiency and low aluminum residual in treated water .

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.

How to use polyaluminium chloride PAC coagulant in sewage treatment process?

Most industries need to use polyaluminium chloride PAC chemical in the sewage treatment process. The precipitation rate of PAC chemical is much faster and the precipitation effect is better. The use method of PAC coagulant is to dissolve it in a certain proportion and then add it to water.

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.

How Pac coagulant can improve the efficiency of sewage treatment?

With the characteristics of rapid reaction speed, PAC coagulant can improve the efficiency of sewage treatment and reduce the water treatment cost. Dosage is small. The configuration concentration is very low, and under the same water quality conditions, its addition amount is also very small compared with other coagulants.
