Water Treatment Chemicals
Due to the corrosive nature of the reaction process, Polyaluminum chloride (PAC) - a water treatment chemical used as a coagulant in the treatment of potable water to reduce turbidity - is produced in glass-lined reactors. We provide technologies, solutions and services to the PAC industry for new plant installations, upgrades for improved uptime, reduced maintenance costs and improved product quality. We also provide complete PAC production facilities.
