4 Purity criteria
4.1 General
This document specifies the minimum purity requirements for polyaluminium hydroxide silicate used for the
treatment of water intended for human consumption. Limits are given for impurities commonly present in the
product. Depending on the raw material 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 the product 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 product not stated in this document.
Limits have been given for impurities and chemical parameters where these are likely to be present in significant
quantities from the current production process and raw materials. If in 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 product expressed as grams per kilogram of
product shall be not less than 40 g/kg.

NOTE Cyanide (CN ) is usually not relevant because of the acidity of the product. Pesticides
and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are not relevant since the raw materials used in the
manufacturing process are free of them. For maximum impact of the product on trace metal
content in drinking water see A.2.
5 Test methods
5.1 Sampling
5.1.1 General
Observe the general rules of ISO 3165 and take into account ISO 6206
5.1.2 Sampling from drums and bottles
5.1.2.1 General
5.1.2.1.1 Mix the contents of each container to be sampled by shaking the container, by rolling it or by rocking it
from side to side, taking care not to damage the container or spill any of the liquid.
5.1.2.1.2 If the design of the container is such (for example, a narrow-necked bottle) that it is impracticable to
use a sampling implement, take a sample by pouring after the contents have been thoroughly mixed. Otherwise,
proceed as described in 5.1.2.1.3.
5.1.2.1.3 Examine the surface of the liquid. If there are signs of surface contamination, take samples from the
surface as described in 5.1.2.2; otherwise, take samples as described in 5.1.2.3.
5.1.2.2 Surface sampling
Take a sample using a suitable ladle. Lower the ladle into the liquid until the rim is just below the surface, so that
the surface layer runs into it. Withdraw the ladle just before it fills completely and allow any liquid adhering to the
ladle to drain off. If necessary, repeat this operation so that, when the other selected containers have been
sampled in a similar manner, the total volume of sample required for subsequent analysis is obtained.
5.1.2.3 Bottom sampling
Take a sample using an open sampling tube, or a bottom-valve sampling tube, suited to the size of container and
the viscosity of the liquid.
When using an open sampling tube, close it at the top and then lower the bottom end to the bottom of the
container. Open the tube and move it rapidly so that the bottom of the tube traverses the bottom of the container
before the tube is filled. Close the tube, withdraw it from the container and allow any liquid adhering to the outside
of the tub
