Solid Aluminum Chlorohydrate Production
Polyaluminum Chloride Operating Costs & Plant Construction Costs
This report approaches the economics of a process for the production of Solid Aluminum Chlorohydrate from metallic aluminum in the United States. In this process, solid Aluminum Chlorohydrate having 46 wt% of aluminum as aluminum oxide (Al2O3) is produced.
The report provides a comprehensive study of Polyaluminum Chloride production and related Polyaluminum Chloride production cost, covering three key aspects: a complete description of the Polyaluminum Chloride production process examined; an in-depth analysis of the related Polyaluminum Chloride plant capital cost (Capex); and an evaluation of the respective Polyaluminum Chloride plant operating costs (Opex).
The Polyaluminum Chloride production process description includes a block flow diagram (BFD), an overview of the industrial site installations, detailing both the process unit and the necessary infrastructure, process consumption figures and comprehensive process flow diagrams (PFD). The Polyaluminum Chloride plant capital cost analysis breaks down the Capex by plant cost (i.e., ISBL, OSBL and Contingency); owner's cost; working capital; and costs incurred during industrial plant commissioning and start-up. The Polyaluminum Chloride plant operating costs analysis covers operating expenses, including variable costs like raw materials and utilities, and fixed costs such as maintenance, labor, and depreciation.

Product
Aluminum Chlorohydrate. Aluminum Chlorohydrate is used in water treatment as a coagulant and in antiperspirants. It is produced by reacting aluminum with hydrochloric acid. Its high efficacy in reducing water turbidity makes it widely applied in municipal water systems.
Raw Materials
Aluminum. Aluminum Metal is a lightweight, corrosion-resistant material used in the construction, automotive, aerospace, and packaging industries. Its strength-to-weight ratio and recyclability make it a key industrial metal. Aluminum is produced from bauxite ore through the Hall-Héroult process and is stored as ingots or sheets.
Hydrochloric Acid. Hydrogen Chloride (HCl), commonly found as hydrochloric acid (a.k.a. muriatic acid) when dissolved in water, is a highly important industrial chemical. Hydrochloric acid has widespread applications in various industries, with major uses in steel pickling, pH control, water treatment, and as a catalyst in chemical synthesis. It is also employed in the production of chlorides, fertilizers, dyes, and in food processing. Hydrogen chloride is primarily produced through the direct synthesis of hydrogen and chlorine, or as a by-product of chlorination reactions in various organic processes. The HCl gas can be absorbed in water to produce aqueous hydrochloric acid, which is the form most widely used industrially.
