NSF Certified for Drinking Water Treatment
Meets strict safety and quality standards for use in potable water treatment applications.

Description

Aluminum Chlorohydrate Water Treatment Grade is a highly efficient inorganic polymer coagulant widely used in municipal and industrial water treatment processes. It is characterized by high Al2O3 content, high basicity, and strong polymerization, which enhances its ability to remove suspended solids, color, turbidity, phosphorus, and organic contaminants.

The product is available in both powder and liquid forms to meet different operational needs. The powder form offers easier transportation and longer shelf life, while the liquid form allows direct dosing and convenient use in automated systems. This product is suitable for drinking water purification, industrial wastewater treatment, sludge conditioning, and phosphorus removal.

ADVANTAGES:

Lower Dosage Requirement

Requires less dosage compared to traditional aluminum salts and PAC, reducing chemical consumption and operational cost.

Excellent Flocculation Performance
Forms dense and fast settling flocs, improving clarification efficiency and reducing sludge volume.

Minimal pH Impact
High basicity ensures low influence on water pH, reducing the need for additional pH adjustment.

Improved Water Quality
Effectively removes turbidity, color, heavy metals, and organic matter, resulting in cleaner treated water.

Flexible Application
Available in both powder and liquid forms to suit different treatment systems and dosing methods.

FAQ

Q1: What is the difference between ACH powder and liquid

A1: ACH powder is easier to transport and store with a longer shelf life, while ACH liquid is ready to use and suitable for continuous dosing systems.

Q2: What are the main applications of ACH in water treatment

A2: ACH is used in drinking water treatment, industrial wastewater treatment, sludge conditioning, phosphorus removal, and turbidity reduction.

Q3: How does ACH compare to PAC or aluminum sulfate

A3:ACH has higher basicity and aluminum content, resulting in lower dosage requirements, faster floc formation, and better treatment efficiency.

Q4: Is ACH suitable for drinking water treatment

A4:Yes, water treatment grade ACH is NSF certified and can be safely used in potable water treatment when applied according to recommended guidelines.

Q5: What is the typical dosage of ACH

A5: The dosage depends on water quality and treatment goals, but it is usually determined through jar testing to optimize performance.

Q6: Does ACH affect the pH of treated water

A6: ACH has minimal impact on water pH due to its high basicity, making it easier to operate without extensive pH adjustment.
