ABSTRACT:
A process of producing a flocculating agent useful for water purification technology and as a substitute for aluminium sulphate in the rosin sizing of paper is described. In this process, about 100-150 parts by weight, preferably about 130 parts by weight of hydrochloric acid, calculated as 100% HCl, and 140-200, preferably 160-190 parts by weight of a sulphate-containing, aluminium hydroxide-containing sludge, calculated on the solids content of the sludge, are mixed. To obtain the sludge, alkaline pickles used in the pickling of aluminium profiles in connection with the anodization of aluminium are neutralized with sulphuric acid or aluminium sulphate. The sludge may also contain up to about 10% by weight of aluminium hydroxide. The mixture is heated and stirred at a temperature of from about 80.degree. C. to the boiling point of the mixture, preferably 95.degree.-100.degree. C., for a combined time of about 3-15 hours, preferably about 4-6 hours. The reaction product is a substantially saturated aqueous solution of polyaluminium chloride having the presumed formula
