Liquid Alum
Liquid alum, or liquid aluminum sulfate [Al₂(SO₄)₃], is a clear, odorless, and highly acidic (pH 1.4-2.6) liquid commonly used as a coagulant in municipal and industrial water treatment and in paper manufacturing. It is completely miscible in water and serves as an effective, non-toxic agent to remove suspended particles by creating a “floc” that binds impurities, improving water clarity, and controlling phosphorus in lakes. Beyond water treatment,

Beyond water treatment, liquid alum serves as a mordant in dyeing, an agent in leather tanning, a pH adjuster, and is used by jewelers to dissolve broken-off steel drill bits without damaging metals like aluminum, copper, or gold.Water Treatment: Acts as a primary coagulant to destabilize charged suspended solids (such as clay and organic matter), causing them to aggregate and settle.
