Product Specification

Poly Aluminium Chloride — PAC

PAC is a pre-hydrolysed aluminium coagulant that out-performs traditional alum — lower dose, wider working pH (about 5–9), faster floc formation, less sludge and lower residual aluminium. We supply spray-dried powder (30% Al₂O₃) for easy shipping and dosing, and liquid PAC (10% Al₂O₃) for plants dosing directly from bulk tanks. Potable-water grades conforming to IS 15573 limits are available, confirmed on the lot Certificate of Analysis.

PAC vs Alum: PAC needs a lower dose, works across a wider pH band, forms floc faster and generates less sludge than alum — though alum stays popular on price. Need iron-free alum instead? See our Non-Ferric Alum 17% page.

Applications

Key Industry Uses

Where water utilities and mills across Africa, the GCC and South Asia deploy PAC.

Drinking-Water Treatment
Primary coagulant for municipal potable water; clears turbidity with low residual aluminium across a wide pH range.
Sewage & Effluent
Coagulation–flocculation in municipal sewage and industrial wastewater; phosphate, COD and colour reduction.
Paper Sizing & Retention
Retention and drainage aid and sizing precipitant in paper and board manufacture.
Textile Dye Effluent
Colour and COD removal in textile dye-house effluent treatment ahead of discharge.
Oilfield & Industrial
Water clarification in drilling, sugar refining and industrial process-water circuits.
Faster Floc, Less Sludge
Pre-hydrolysed structure forms dense floc quickly, cutting coagulant dose and sludge volume versus alum.

Safety & Handling

Storage & Handling

PAC is not classified as dangerous for transport, but solutions are mildly acidic — keep powder dry.

🌧️

Keep Dry (Powder)
Hygroscopic; store sealed in a dry area. Store liquid PAC in vented HDPE/FRP tanks away from frost.

🧤

Mildly Acidic
Solutions are acidic (pH ~3.5–4.5); use gloves and goggles. Not classified as DG for transport.

🚫

Segregate from Alkalis
Reacts with strong alkalis. Keep apart from caustic soda and bicarbonate stores.

📄

GHS SDS Supplied
GHS-compliant SDS with every quotation; potable-grade COA (IS 15573) on request.
Africa, GCC & Asia Demand: Municipal water boards and effluent-treatment plants across East/West Africa and South Asia are switching from alum to PAC for lower dose and sludge. SNJ Exim supplies PAC alongside non-ferric alum so utilities and mills can trial and standardise with one Indian exporter.

Buyer FAQ

Common Questions

What is the difference between PAC and alum?▾
PAC is pre-hydrolysed, so it needs a lower dose, works across a wider pH range (about 5–9), forms floc faster and produces less sludge than alum. Alum stays popular on price. We supply both.
Do you supply powder and liquid PAC?▾
Yes. Spray-dried powder (30% Al₂O₃) ships at lower freight per tonne of active alumina; liquid PAC (10% Al₂O₃) suits plants dosing directly from bulk tanks. Both are certified on the lot COA.
Is your PAC suitable for drinking-water treatment?▾
Yes. Potable-water grade conforming to IS 15573 limits (alumina, basicity, heavy metals) is available and confirmed on each lot’s third-party COA.
Is PAC classified as dangerous goods?▾
No. PAC powder and liquid are not IMDG-regulated and ship as general cargo. Solutions are mildly acidic, so a GHS SDS is supplied with every shipment.
What is the minimum order quantity?▾
One full container load (~22–25 MT of powder per 20′ FCL) or one tanker/IBC load of liquid. Samples can be arranged for verified water-treatment buyers.
Which countries do you export PAC to?▾
Kenya, Nigeria, Tanzania, Ethiopia, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Vietnam, Egypt and South Africa, with full export documentation on every container.

Export Markets & Commercial Terms

Where We Supply

SNJ Exim ships powder and liquid Poly Aluminium Chloride in full-container loads from Ankleshwar, Gujarat to water boards and effluent-treatment plants across three regions.

We regularly export PAC to municipal water boards, sewage and effluent-treatment plants, and paper mills in Kenya, Nigeria, Tanzania and Ethiopia (East & West Africa); the UAE, Saudi Arabia and Oman (GCC); and Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and Vietnam (South & Southeast Asia), alongside Egypt and South Africa. Every container leaves Gujarat with a complete export document set — Bill of Lading, third-party Certificate of Analysis (alumina, basicity and IS 15573 potable limits where required), Certificate of Origin and GHS Safety Data Sheet — so your water-quality compliance is covered on arrival.
