Polyaluminium Chloride (PAC)
Polyaluminium chloride is a group of inorganic polymers that are typically available as a yellow or brownish powder or in liquid form. It is formed by the reaction of aluminum hydroxide with hydrochloric acid. The degree of polymerization and neutralization can vary, leading to different forms of PAC with varying properties. PAC is characterized by its high content of aluminum and its ability to form polynuclear complexes.
APPLICATION & USAGE
- PAC is commonly used as a coagulant in water treatment plants. It helps to remove suspended solids, organic matter, and colloidal particles from water, making it suitable for drinking water or industrial processes.
- PAC is utilized in wastewater treatment systems to remove pollutants and enhance the sedimentation process.
- PAC is employed in the paper and pulp industry as a retention aid and filler-fixing agent.
- PAC is also utilized in various other applications, such as in the production of ceramic materials, as a sizing agent in the textile industry, and as a soil stabilizer in construction projects.
