Polyaluminium Chloride (PAC)


Product Overview

Polyaluminium Chloride (PAC) is an inorganic high-molecular coagulant used in water treatment. It is formed through the bridging effect of hydroxide ions and polymerization of polyvalent anions, resulting in a substance with a large molecular weight and high charge density.

PAC is primarily used for the purification of drinking water, industrial water, and various types of wastewater and sewage. It is effective in deodorization, sterilization, decolorization, and corrosion inhibition. It shows significant performance in treating industrial wastewater containing iron, chromium, manganese, zinc, phenol, sulfur, and fluoride.

Applications

Primary Uses:

  • Water treatment and flocculation agent

  • Suitable for purifying drinking water and special water sources, including the removal of iron, cadmium, fluoride, and floating oil

  • Effective in industrial wastewater treatment, such as textile dyeing wastewater

  • Widely used in industries such as papermaking, pharmaceuticals, leather tanning, and more

Additional Industrial Applications:

  • As a sizing agent in papermaking

  • As a fast-setting agent in cement

  • As a hardener in precision casting

  • As an adhesive in refractory materials

  • In refining glycerin, fabric wrinkle resistance, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals

PAC is typically available in solid form. Liquid forms are colorless to light yellow or brownish transparent/semi-transparent liquids. Solid PAC is highly hygroscopic and may clump, but it dissolves easily in water. The recommended solution concentration for use is around 10%. It is a cationic high-polymer flocculant widely used in wastewater treatment.


Performance Characteristics

  • Rapid floc formation with strong activity and good filtration performance

  • Does not require alkaline additives, and performance remains stable even after moisture absorption

  • Broad pH adaptability (optimal pH range: 7–9; applicable range: 4–14)

  • Wide range of applications

  • Low salt residue in treated water

  • When combined with Polyferric Sulfate, it can effectively remove heavy metals and radioactive contaminants from water


Usage Instructions

Preparation:
Prepare a 5%–10% solution by dissolving in water. Stir thoroughly for uniform mixing.

Dosage:
Dosage varies depending on the quality of the water being treated. Determine the optimal dosage through small-scale trials based on the turbidity of the wastewater.

 

Operating Conditions:
Effective within a pH range of 4–14, with an optimal range of 7–9.
