Poly aluminium chloride (PAC) supplier in India

Poly aluminium chloride (PAC) is a pre-hydrolysed aluminium coagulant, and we supply it as powder and liquid. Our PAC powder has 28–32% Al₂O₃ at 70–85% basicity, is packed in 25 kg and 50 kg bags and starts at 250 kg in India; we export it too. Liquid PAC has 10% Al₂O₃ and comes in 35–50 kg carboys, 200–250 kg drums or tankers.

Poly Aluminium Chloride PAC Manufacturer India

What is poly aluminium chloride?

PAC is an aluminium salt that has already been partly reacted with hydroxide before it reaches your dosing tank. Basicity tells you how far that reaction has gone. At 70–85%, much of the alkalinity that alum would strip from the raw water is already in the product, so the pH drops less after dosing. Whether that makes it cheaper to run than alum depends on your water, so compare the two in a jar test. PAC works between pH 5.0 and 9.0 and removes turbidity and colour from river and canal water. Mills and effluent plants use it to clarify wastewater before discharge or reuse. Importers know the same product as polyaluminium chloride, polyaluminum chloride, PACl or PAC 30% powder.

Why Choose Rise Chemical India?

We supply PAC as powder and liquid. The powder grade is 28–32% Al₂O₃ at 70–85% basicity, and the liquid has 10% Al₂O₃ for plants that dose from a tank without dissolving powder. The 250 kg minimum for powder is ten 25 kg bags, small enough for an ETP to trial. We are ISO 9001:2015 certified, and we make ferric alum and anionic polyelectrolyte at our own factory, so a plant can trial ferric alum against PAC or add a flocculant to the same order. Send your monthly PAC consumption, the Al₂O₃ grade you use now and your delivery location on WhatsApp at +91 95829 99838, and we will quote.

Frequently Asked Questions

PAC is a coagulant that removes turbidity and colour from drinking water and clarifies industrial effluent. It is dosed ahead of the clarifier, where it gathers fine suspended particles into flocs that settle. Paper mills and textile dyeing units use it on their effluent.

It depends on the water. PAC is pre-neutralised, so it pulls the pH down less than alum and works over a wider pH band, 5.0 to 9.0, which helps where the raw water is short of alkalinity. Ferric alum costs less per kg and needs lime only where the raw water cannot supply the alkalinity itself. Compare the two in a jar test on your own water and work out the cost per cubic metre treated, lime included. We make ferric alum and supply PAC, so we can quote both.

Our PAC powder has 28–32% Al₂O₃ and 70–85% basicity, and our liquid PAC has 10% Al₂O₃. Al₂O₃ is the active aluminium, reported as oxide, and basicity is the share of that aluminium already bound to hydroxide. Higher basicity usually means a smaller pH drop and less alkali correction after dosing.

Yes. The liquid PAC we supply has 10% Al₂O₃ and comes in 35–50 kg carboys, 200–250 kg drums or by tanker. It doses straight from the tank, so there is no powder to dissolve. The powder, at 28–32% Al₂O₃, carries about three times as much aluminium per kg, so it costs less to move over long distances.

The minimum order for PAC powder is 250 kg, which is ten 25 kg bags or five 50 kg bags. Larger quantities go in bags or as bulk supply. For liquid PAC, tell us your monthly use and delivery location and we will quote carboys, drums or a tanker.

PAC is traded as polyaluminium chloride, polyaluminum chloride, PACl or PAC 30% powder, under HS code 2827.32 with CAS number 1327-41-9. Some importers declare liquid or blended grades under a different heading, so confirm the code with your customs broker.

Yes, we export PAC, and buyers in the UAE, Oman, East Africa and other markets can ask for a quote. Send the destination port, the quantity and the grade you use now, by WhatsApp at +91 95829 99838 or through the enquiry form, and we will quote; the price and terms depend on the quantity and the destination. The powder is packed in 25 kg or 50 kg bags.

PAC powder keeps for 12 months in sealed bags stored in a cool, dry place. The powder pulls moisture from the air, so reseal part-used bags and keep them off damp floors.
