Abstract

The authors suggest a new physical-chemical theory of water treatment coagulants (eg aluminum sulfate). For the first time expressed the opinion that the hydrated aluminum ion in the solid crystalline sulphate (Al2(SO4)3*24H2O) is in the form of dimer [Al2(H2O)24]6+. Last ochyschayemiy water in the presence of sufficient alkaline reserve undergo hydrolytic polymerization of the scheme:

[Al2(H2O)24]6+ → [Al2(H2O)24(OH)2]4+ → [Al4(H2O)36(OH)6]6+

→ [Al6(H2O)36(OH)12]6+ → { [Al2(OH)6]3 [Al6(H2O)36(OH)12]2 }6+ → micelles

→ aggregation of micelles in Globular aggregates and chain structure → flakes.
