What is polyaluminium chloride (PAC)?

Poly aluminium chloride (PAC) used at YASA ET for wastewater treatment projects has the characteristics of good coagulation performance, large alum particles formation, fast settling, low dosage, high efficiency, and wide application range. Due to the positive charge Polyaluminium Chloride (PAC) has strong adsorption of suspended matter in water.

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.

What are the advantages of Yasa et polyaluminium chloride?

For this reason, YASA ET PAC has many advantages, such as strong decontamination, high comprehensive efficiency in oil removal and turbidity removal, and low cost YASA ET Polyaluminium Chloride (PAC) in water treatment can ensure safety, reduce water accidents, and provide safe and reliable drinking water for users.

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 polyaluminium chloride better than polyelectrolyte – alum-based coagulation?

At the Barekese Water Treatment Plant in Ghana, an alternative, the polyelectrolyte – polyaluminium chloride (PAC) is also used in coagulation but limited information is available on the operating conditions required to achieve better performance than alum-based coagulation.
