In city with a population of 238,940, the local water treatment plant supplies potable water to 96% of the urban population. Traditionally, the plant relied on inorganic coagulants such as aluminium sulphate and ferric chloride for clarification—common choices, but not the most environmentally sustainable.
A one-year trial was conducted to evaluate the performance of Tanfloc combined with a polyamine-based product. The trial demonstrated over 98.8% efficiency in removing apparent colour and turbidity from raw water. Tanfloc enhanced health and safety conditions, contributed to a cleaner, more environmentally friendly treatment process, and eliminated the need for alkalising agents, simplifying pH control and plant operations.
The results confirmed that Tanfloc is a fully viable and effective alternative to traditional coagulants, meeting all regulatory standards for public potable water supply.
