摘      要：Aging of polyaluminum chloride(PACl) coagulants could significantly influence hydrolyzed Al speciation ruling coagulation *** goal of this study was to investigate Al species transformation through long-term aging and its impact on coagulation *** kinds of commercial coagulants(PACl-1 and PACl-2) were stored for in-situ aging tests in six months to evaluate Al species variation with time and the performance of coagulation with natural turbid *** results showed that CaSO4 precipitation easily occur in a commercial PACl coagulant with time as it contains SO4^2- and Ca^2+.It also activates the precipitation of gibbsite Al(OH)3 in PACl with *** 180 days aging,both monomeric Al(Ala) and polymeric Al(Alb) substantially transform into colloidal Al(Alc) and precipitated for both PACl *** low turbidity(10 NTU),PACl-1 has a superior turbidity reduction rate than PACl-2,while PACl-2 performs a little better turbidity re duction at high turbidity(1000 NTU) regardless of aging *** aging time,an obvious decrease in turbidity reduction for PACl-1 coagulation is observed at low turbidity of 10 NTU,while the improvement in turbidity reduction for PACl-2 coagulation by enhanced sweep flocculation can be achieved as Alb mostly transform into Alc after 150 days *** is concluded that dominant in-situ formed Alc after a long time hydrolysis can improve PACl coagulation efficiency in turbidity reduction by enhanced sweep flocculation,especially for low turbidity water,but the increase in preformed Alc in PACl would worsen particle destabilization after aging.
