Aluminium Sulphate is a prevalent agent in water treatment processes, where it is used for many purposes. In particular, it is applied to the treatment of raw water. This ensures that the water fulfills quality standards for both domestic and industrial purposes.
Aluminium Sulphate also has an important role in wastewater and sludge treatment. It can be used to rid wastewater of pollutants, organic matter, and suspended solids, working to protect the environment by enabling the safe disposal of wastewater.
The chemical formula of Aluminum Sulfate is Al2(SO4)3;
Its molar mass is 342.15 g/mol (anhydrous) and 666.44 g/mol (octadecahydrate).
Aluminum Sulfate occurs as a white crystalline solid; it is hygroscopic in nature.
Its density is 2.672 g/cm3 (anhydrous) and 1.62 g/cm3 (octadecahydrate).
The melting point is 770 °C (1,420 °F; 1,040 K) (decomposes, anhydrous) and 86.5 °C (octadecahydrate).
It is slightly soluble in alcohol, dilute mineral acids. Its solubility in water is 31.2 g/100 mL (0 °C), 36.4 g/100 mL (20 °C) and 89.0 g/100 mL (100 °C).
The acidity (pKa) is 3.3-3.6 and its magnetic susceptibility (χ) is -93.0·10−6 cm3/mol.
The refractive index (nD) is 1.47[1] and the Phase behaviour is solid–liquid–gas.
Its standard enthalpy of formation (ΔfH⦵298) is -3440 kJ/mol.
Ever wonder how we manage to have safe drinking water flowing out of our faucets? You can thank aluminum sulfate. Municipal water suppliers, such as your local water utility company, make use of alum to treat water for human consumption. In addition, process water (non-drinking water) may also be treated with this chemical for purification when bacteria / sediment would cause an adverse effect.
When added to water, aluminum sulfate causes microscopic impurities to clump together into larger and larger particles. These clumps then settle to the bottom of the container and can be filtered out. This makes the water safer to drink. On the same principle, alum is also sometimes used in swimming pools to decrease water cloudiness.
Another of the many uses of aluminum sulfate is in dyeing and printing on cloth. When dissolved in a large amount of water that has a neutral or slightly alkaline pH, the compound produces a gooey substance, aluminum hydroxide. This goo helps dyes stick to the cloth fibers by making the dye water insoluble. The role of aluminum sulfate, then, is as a dye “fixer,” which means that it combines with the molecular structure of the dye and the fabric so the dye doesn’t run out when the fabric gets wet.
aluminum sulfate usage includes papermaking Aluminum sulfate helps to size the paper. Aluminum sulfate produces acidic conditions, whereas synthetic sizing agents produce acid-free paper which does not break down as easily. Thus, aluminum sulfate is the preferred method of paper sizing for uses in printing and writing papers.
