01 / Applications and trials

Plan a trial for your application

Industrial water clarification

Use the same active aluminum basis in raw-water trials. Compare turbidity after coagulation, pH and filtration.

Drinking-water project review

Obtain the documents required in the project market. Check impurity limits and intended use before testing under the water plant’s conditions.

02 / Quality and acceptance

Purchase specifications and incoming inspection

Include the intended grade or current specification in the enquiry. Use the table to compare selection criteria and inspection conditions. The specification agreed by both parties defines the contractual limits. ENVO public product information · Verify against the ordered grade and lot ↗

Property Unit Published or agreed specification Test conditions and checks
Alumina equivalent Mass fraction ENVO published solid grade ≥17% Report as Al₂O₃ and specify the sampling basis. This is not the mass fraction of elemental aluminium.
Iron (as Fe) Mass fraction ENVO published solid grade ≤0.005% Agree a tighter limit separately for colour-sensitive applications.
Water-insoluble matter Mass fraction ENVO published solid grade ≤0.1% Record the filter medium and dissolution conditions.

When approving a sample, record the grade, methods, limits and specification revision. On receipt, match the packing lot number to the lot-specific COA and record the measured values and release decision.

03 / Packaging and delivery

From samples to commercial delivery

Packaging and receiving

ENVO lists 25 kg bags for solids. Identify flakes, crystals or granules on the shipping documents and match unloading arrangements to the hopper.

Storage and handling

Check hydrate form, iron content, bag damage and moisture exposure. Retain samples by lot.

Sample and order lead times

State treatment scale, trial quantity and acceptable packaging. Request minimum quantities, preparation times and arrival dates for lab samples, pilot lots and routine replenishment.

Packaging label reference

The aluminium sulfate label distinguishes net from gross weight. Request the pallet breakdown for the shipment before calculating the load.

04 / Troubleshooting

Questions from the plant

Why does clarification change with raw-water alkalinity?

Record raw-water pH and alkalinity and compare turbidity and sludge volume in jar tests.

Can the aluminium contents of aluminium sulphate and PAC directly establish dosing cost?

Convert both to Al or Al₂O₃ on the same basis. Compare actual doses required for the same effluent target on the same water.

Report a delivery or batch issue

Include the order number, lot number from the package, label photos and inspection records for the affected lot. When retesting, check Alumina equivalent, Iron content, Insoluble matter.
