Industrial PAC powder is available in 26%–31% Al₂O₃ grades. Content ranges describe different models; the minimum content guarantee and other limits are confirmed in the selected model’s specification.
Industrial PAC Powder
Industrial wastewater and process-water coagulation.
Drinking-Water PAC Powder
White and light yellow models with separate basicity and iron limits.
Liquid Poly Aluminium Chloride (PAC)
Separate industrial and drinking-water liquid specifications.
Applications
Textile, paper & industrial wastewater
PAC coagulants for textile and dyeing effluent, paper-mill wastewater and other industrial streams. Share colour, turbidity and process data to compare models in a jar test.
Mining & metallurgy
For coagulation in mineral-processing and metallurgical wastewater treatment. Review suspended solids, process pH and the required treated-water quality when selecting the grade.
Oilfield & industrial process water
Options for produced water, oilfield reinjection-water treatment and industrial circulating-water pretreatment. Specify the water chemistry, treatment stage and downstream requirements.
Drinking-water & process-water treatment
Drinking-water-grade powder and liquid options for municipal and rural supply and food or beverage process-water treatment. Confirm the model documents and destination requirements for the intended use.
How to select a PAC model
1. Describe the water source, treatment process and target water quality. Include pH, turbidity and other available raw-water data.
2. Choose industrial or drinking-water grade, and powder or liquid. Share required Al₂O₃ content, basicity and impurity limits.
3. Evaluate the proposed model in a jar test using your water. Confirm the grade and working dosage before placing a bulk order.
4. For a quotation, add the quantity, destination, packaging, pallet preference and required documents for the selected model.
Laboratory support for PAC selection
Our three laboratories support analysis, product testing and development for specific water-treatment requirements. Discuss grade selection and your trial results with our technical team before and after supply.

Common questions
What does the percentage on a PAC specification mean?
It is Al₂O₃ content. It does not mean that all products with the same percentage have the same basicity, impurity limits or treatment performance.
Can colour identify the grade?
No. Industrial samples pictured are labelled 26% and 28%, but colour alone does not establish content or suitability. Select using the grade specification and water-treatment trial.
How should I choose the dosage?
Share your raw-water data and treatment objective. Confirm the model and working dosage through a jar test; there is no single dosage suitable for every water source.
Is PAC interchangeable with PAM?
No. PAC is an inorganic coagulant, while PAM is a polymer used for flocculation and solids separation. Depending on the treatment process, they may be evaluated separately or together. Select the models and dosage through testing with your water or sludge.
