| Abstract:
|
Aluminum chloride (AlCl3) is an inorganic coagulant and the preset study is aimed as surveying its usage for water
treatment purposes. The keywords “poly aluminum chloride”, water treatment”, and “coagulant” were searched in
Google Scholar, SID, Iran Medix, and Magiran databases between 2006 and 2017. The found articles were summarized
afterward. The results showed that poly aluminum chloride (PAC) can be used as an effective coagulant if the
standards with regard to concentration of PAC are observed in the process of treatment. PAC can be also used to
remove extra fluoride content from water resources. To have better results, adjusting PH value of the coagulation
process, avoiding higher doses of PAC, adequate stirring with proper speed (to facilitate coagulation process), efficient
filtration (to remove aluminum clods), using chitosan (as aid coagulant of PAC), adding bentonites (to reduce optimum
concentration of PAC needed) are recommended.
