The Chemistry of Clean Water

Coagulation plays a key role in water treatment. Contec provides reliable and customizable technologies for a wide range of applications.

PAC

Poly Aluminium Chloride

PAC is a polynuclear aluminium complex with high charge density, excellent for flocculation over a wide pH range. Contec’s PAC process enables precise control of basicity (up to 75%) and includes both liquid and solid formulations. Solid PAC is typically produced via nozzle or spray tower drying systems.

ACH

Aluminium Chlorohydroxide

ACH offers extremely low aluminium residuals and minimal chlorine content. Suitable for sensitive industrial uses, it is produced using simplified equipment compared to PAC—no enamel-lined reactors or graphite heat exchangers are required.

AS

Aluminium Sulphate

AS (Al₂(SO₄)₃) remains an economical coagulant option. Despite limited flexibility under strict effluent parameters, it’s a reliable choice for certain water conditions. Our technology allows seamless integration with PAC production for operational efficiency.

FeCl₃

Ferric Chloride

A preferred solution for phosphorus removal and sludge conditioning in wastewater treatment. Contec’s systems are adaptable for continuous or batch production based on plant scale and dosing requirements.

Green Chemistry in Practice

We use industrial by-products—Alternative Raw Materials (ARMs)—as feedstock, reducing waste and supporting circular economy principles.
