In the pursuit of cleaner and safer water, ​Lanyao Water Treatment Co., Ltd. has emerged as a leader in Southeast Asia’s water treatment industry with its innovative coagulant, ​LY-ACH®. This cutting-edge ​Aluminium Chlorohydrate (ACH) formulation is designed to tackle the region’s growing water clarification and wastewater treatment challenges, offering a sustainable, efficient, and cost-effective solution for water treatment plants across Southeast Asia.

What is Aluminium Chlorohydrate?

Aluminium Chlorohydrate (ACH) is a highly effective coagulant used in water and wastewater treatment. Its general formula, ​AlₙCl₍₃ₙ₋ₘ₎ₘ, reflects its unique chemical structure, which enables it to bind and remove suspended materials more effectively than traditional coagulants. ACH is water-soluble and has a high charge density, allowing it to form stronger, denser flocs that settle faster, improving water clarity.

Unlike conventional coagulants like alum or ferric chloride, ACH has a minimal impact on water pH, reducing the need for additional alkalinity adjustments. This makes it a preferred choice for modern water treatment systems striving to meet stringent quality standards.

Introducing LY-ACH® by Lanyao Water Treatment Co., Ltd.

Lanyao’s ​LY-ACH® is a game-changer in the water treatment industry. Developed through years of research and innovation, this super coagulant combines the best features of inorganic and organic coagulants, bridging the performance gap between traditional metal-based coagulants and organic polymers.

Key Features of LY-ACH®

• ​Enhanced Floc Formation: LY-ACH® produces stronger, denser flocs that settle faster than the fluffier flocs formed by traditional coagulants.
• ​Superior Turbidity Reduction: It reduces filtered and finished water turbidity to below ​0.1 NTU, far exceeding Southeast Asia’s drinking water standards.
• ​Minimal Alkalinity Impact: LY-ACH® has the least effect on treated water alkalinity, resulting in less corrosive finished water.
• ​Rapid Response to Water Quality Changes: It effectively handles rapid fluctuations in turbidity, particles, and organic content.
• ​Cost Efficiency: LY-ACH® requires smaller doses and reduces caustic soda demand by ​90%, significantly lowering operational costs.
• ​Reduced Sludge Generation: It cuts chemical sludge production by nearly ​40%, especially during high turbidity episodes.

Why LY-ACH® is a Sustainable Choice

Traditional coagulants like alum and ferric chloride, while cost-effective, come with significant drawbacks:

• Limited coagulation pH range (5.5–6.5).
• High residual aluminium levels in treated water.
• Fragile flocs that hinder color removal.
• High dosage requirements and the need for additional chemicals like lime or polyacrylamide, which pose health risks.

LY-ACH® addresses these issues by offering a safer, more efficient alternative. It contains a high concentration of ​polymerized aluminium chains (Al13), which are highly charged and stabilized by repulsion forces, preventing aluminium hydroxide precipitation. This ensures minimal residual aluminium in treated water, meeting Southeast Asia’s stringent water quality standards.

Transforming Water Treatment in Southeast Asia

LY-ACH® has revolutionized water treatment in Southeast Asia by:

• ​Reducing Dosage by 80%: Lower chemical usage translates to significant cost savings.
• ​Minimizing Sludge Generation: A ​40% reduction in sludge production decreases scheduled waste disposal.
• ​Ensuring Healthier Water: Undetectable residual aluminium levels provide safer drinking water.
• ​Eliminating Harmful Chemicals: LY-ACH® eliminates the need for cancer-causing polyelectrolytes and reduces caustic soda usage.

In regions where water demand surges during dry seasons or periods of rapid urbanization, raw water quality often becomes unstable due to fluctuating turbidity and pollutants. LY-ACH® has proven its resilience in such scenarios, ensuring continuous delivery of clean and healthy drinking water to water treatment plants across Southeast Asia.

Conclusion

Lanyao Water Treatment Co., Ltd.’s ​LY-ACH® represents a significant leap forward in water treatment technology. By offering a sustainable, efficient, and cost-effective solution, it has become an essential component for water treatment plants in Southeast Asia. As the region continues to face water quality challenges, LY-ACH® stands ready to meet the demands of the future, ensuring cleaner, safer water for all.
