Product Description
- Water Purification
Aluminum sulfate plays a crucial role in water treatment plants. As a coagulant, it neutralizes the negative charges on suspended particles in raw water, such as clay, silt, and fine organic debris. Upon addition, it hydrolyzes to form large, sticky flocs that entangle and aggregate these particles. Through the processes of sedimentation and filtration, these flocs are removed, significantly reducing turbidity and improving water clarity. This makes the water safe for various applications, from domestic consumption to industrial use.
- Papermaking Industry
In papermaking, aluminum sulfate serves as a sizing agent and retention aid. It helps fix rosin - based sizing agents onto paper fibers, preventing ink from bleeding and enhancing the paper's resistance to water. Additionally, it improves the retention of fine materials like fillers and pigments during the papermaking process, ensuring a more uniform and high - quality paper product. This is essential for producing printing papers, writing papers, and specialty paper products.
- Textile Processing
As a mordant in textile dyeing, aluminum sulfate enhances the affinity between dyes and fibers. It reacts with both the dye molecules and the fabric, creating a chemical bond that improves color uptake and fastness. This results in more vibrant and long - lasting colors, even after multiple washes. It is commonly used with natural dyes, helping to set the color firmly on cotton, silk, and other textile materials.
- Agricultural Applications
In agriculture, aluminum sulfate is used to adjust soil pH levels. It can lower the soil's alkalinity, making it more suitable for acid - loving plants like rhododendrons, azaleas, and blueberries. Moreover, it provides sulfur, an essential nutrient for plant growth that aids in the formation of proteins and enzymes. In some cases, it can also be used to control the growth of certain algae in irrigation water, preventing clogging of pipes and systems.
- Wastewater Treatment
For industrial and municipal wastewater, aluminum sulfate is effective in removing pollutants. It helps precipitate heavy metals, such as lead and Hg, as well as phosphorus compounds, which are major contributors to water pollution and eutrophication. By forming insoluble precipitates, it enables the efficient removal of these contaminants, ensuring that the treated wastewater meets environmental discharge standards.
- Fire - Retardant Formulations
Aluminum sulfate is incorporated into some fire - retardant products. When exposed to high temperatures, it decomposes and forms a protective layer on treated materials, such as wood and fabrics. This layer acts as a barrier, reducing oxygen access and heat transfer, thereby retarding the spread of fire and enhancing the fire - resistance of the treated materials.
