About Polyaluminium Chloride (PAC) Liquid 10%

Polyaluminium Chloride (PAC) Liquid 10% is an inorganic coagulant designed for efficient purification of potable and industrial water. This grade is particularly valued for its high charge density and rapid coagulation kinetics, enabling effective removal of suspended solids, colloidal particles, and organic contaminants. It is commonly applied in municipal water treatment, wastewater management, and industrial effluent processing. Handling PAC liquid requires care to avoid prolonged skin contact and inhalation of mists; proper PPE such as gloves and goggles are mandatory. For storage, it should be kept in sealed containers away from extreme heat or freezing conditions to maintain efficacy. Finstar Chemicals supplies PAC in bulk quantities and 25kg bags, optimizing logistics for buyers in the East African region. PAC improves sedimentation rates, reducing sludge volume and facilitating faster clarification. Its use extends to treatment of tannery effluents, pulp and paper mill wastewaters, and dyeing process streams where charged particles destabilize for removal. Accurate dosing is critical; overdosing may increase residual aluminum levels, while underdosing reduces coagulation efficiency. Procurement teams benefit from Finstar's documentation and support for batch traceability, ensuring compliance with regional water treatment standards. This product's compatibility with downstream filtration processes and chlorine disinfection enhances overall water safety. By choosing PAC Liquid 10%, buyers access a reliable solution designed for robust coagulation performance in both rural and urban water treatment systems throughout Kenya and neighboring markets.

Applications

Drinking Water TreatmentFacilitates removal of turbidity and suspended solids by coagulation and flocculation enhancing water clarity and safety.
Wastewater TreatmentUsed to precipitate heavy metals and organic contaminants improving effluent quality before discharge.
Industrial Process WaterRemoves colloidal particles in paper mills and textile dye effluents to protect equipment and reduce pollution.
Tannery Effluent TreatmentBinds and precipitates tanning agents and suspended solids to reduce environmental impact of discharge.

Benefits

Rapid Floc FormationHigh charge density quickly neutralizes particle charges, reducing coagulation time and improving plant throughput.
Lower Sludge VolumeProduces denser flocs that settle faster, reducing sludge handling and disposal costs in treatment plants.
Effective at Wide pH RangeMaintains coagulation efficiency between pH 5 to 9, providing flexibility in varying water conditions.
Compatible with Filtration SystemsForms flocs easily filtered by sand and membrane filters, ensuring downstream processes operate efficiently.
