About Aluminium Sulfate

Aluminium sulfate widely known as alum is one of the most established coagulants in water and wastewater treatment. Supplied as powder, kibbled granules or a liquid solution, it neutralises the charge on suspended colloidal particles so they aggregate into settleable flocs, clarifying drinking water and treating effluent. It is also the classic papermaker's alum for rosin sizing and pH control, and a mordant in dyeing. It is offered as liquid aluminium sulfate (typically 8% Al2O3, ready to dose) and solid powder/kibbled forms (17% Al2O3, cheaper to ship), and in ferric (standard) and low-iron 'non-ferric' grades the latter preferred for potable water and paper where iron staining must be avoided. Industrial buyers sourcing Aluminium Sulfate in bulk also track aluminium sulfate pricing closely, since it feeds directly into their downstream costs which is why working with an established aluminium sulfate supplier and distributor like Elchemy matters.

FAQs - Aluminium Sulfate

Who is a trusted aluminium sulfate supplier and manufacturer for bulk orders?
Elchemy is an established aluminium sulfate supplier, manufacturer and distributor serving buyers in the USA, UK, UAE and 40+ countries globally. We work with audited manufacturers across multiple origins to ensure reliable bulk supply of Aluminium Sulfate, with a COA on every batch.
How do I get liquid aluminium sulfate for a bulk order?
Submit the quote form on this page with your volume, grade, packaging and destination country. Our team returns liquid aluminium sulfate within 24 to 48 hours. Because aluminium sulfate pricing moves with the price of aluminium hydroxide/bauxite and sulphuric acid, we quote live rather than publishing a fixed rate.
What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ) for bulk Aluminium Sulfate?
Samples are dispatched within 24 to 48 hours. Commercial orders typically start from 1 MT, with full container loads available. As a bulk aluminium sulfate distributor, Elchemy can match both trial and large-volume requirements contact us for an exact MOQ.
What grades of Aluminium Sulfate does Elchemy supply?
Elchemy supplies Non-Ferric (low-iron) Powder, Ferric (standard) Powder, Liquid Alum, Kibbled / Granular. Every grade ships with a COA, TDS and SDS. Tell our team your application and destination and we will recommend the right grade.
What is the difference between liquid and powder aluminium sulfate?
They are the same coagulant in different forms. Liquid alum (8% Al2O3) is ready to dose and convenient for large treatment plants; powder or kibbled alum (17% Al2O3) is cheaper to ship and store, and is dissolved on site before use. The choice depends on plant size, storage and freight.
Is aluminium sulfate the same as alum?
In water treatment and papermaking, 'alum' almost always means aluminium sulfate, CAS 10043-01-3. Strictly, 'alum' also refers to a class of double sulfate salts (like potassium alum), but in industrial use the terms are used interchangeably for aluminium sulfate.
Can you ship Aluminium Sulfate to the USA, UK and UAE?
Yes. Elchemy is a global aluminium sulfate supplier and distributor shipping to the USA, UK, UAE and 40+ countries, with the regulatory documentation each market requires (FDA/EPA, REACH, GSO and more). We handle freight, customs paperwork and delivery.
Is your Aluminium Sulfate available with Halal, Kosher or non-GMO documentation?
Where applicable, yes. Halal and Kosher certificates and origin/non-GMO declarations are available on request for the relevant grades, alongside the standard COA, TDS and SDS.
What documentation comes with a Aluminium Sulfate order?
Every order includes a Certificate of Analysis, Technical Data Sheet and GHS-aligned Safety Data Sheet, plus packing list, bill of lading and certificate of origin on request the documentation professional buyers expect from a reliable aluminium sulfate manufacturer and supplier.
How is aluminium sulfate used in water treatment?
Aluminium sulfate is added at the rapid-mix stage to neutralise the charge on suspended colloidal particles, which then clump into flocs that settle out or are filtered. It clarifies drinking water and removes phosphate and solids from wastewater, working best around pH 6–7.5.

Aluminum Chlorohydrate

Aluminum Chlorohydrate

Aluminum chlorohydrate (ACH) is a chemical compound that consists of a group of specific aluminum salts. These salts are typically found as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid and have the general formula AlₙCl₍₃ₙ₋ₘ₎(OH)₍₃ₘ₎. ACH is a type of polyaluminum chloride, which is a group of water-soluble aluminum complexes. It is commonly used in personal care products as an antiperspirant and in water treatment as a coagulant. The most commonly used variation of ACH is Al2Cl(OH)5. It is soluble in water, and its solubility may vary depending on the specific form and composition.
