4 Purity criteria
4.1 General
This document specifies the minimum purity requirements for aluminium chloride (monomeric), aluminium chloride
hydroxide (monomeric) and aluminium chloride hydroxide sulfate (monomeric) used for the treatment of water
intended for human consumption. Limits are given for impurities commonly present in the product. Depending on
the raw materiel and the manufacturing process other impurities may be present and, if so, this shall be notified to
the user and when necessary to relevant authorities.
NOTE Users of these products should check the national regulations in order to clarify whether it is of appropriate purity for
treatment of water intended for human consumption, taking into account raw water quality, required dosage, contents of other
impurities and additives used in the products not stated in this document.
Limits have been given for impurities and chemicals parameters where these are likely to be present in significant
quantities from the current production process and raw materials. If the production process or raw materials lead to
significant quantities of impurities, by-products or additives being present, this shall be notified to the user.
4.2 Composition of commercial product
The concentration of active matter (aluminium ion content) in the commercial product expressed as grams per
kilogram of product shall be within ± 3 % of the manufacturer's declared values.
NOTE The concentration of water-soluble aluminium in commercial products varies. Typical values of aluminium content in
products can be between 42 g/kg and 124 g/kg.
The commercial products vary in the proportions of chloride and sulfate ions.
The relative basicity of these products expressed as the mole ratio OH/3Al shall be less than or equal to 0,35.
