This post was last edited by foam_ZPTK on 2019-7-7 23:00: 1. Why is ferric chloride generally used instead of aluminum chloride? 2. The reason why magnesium hydroxide flocs usually float to the surface. Is it not easy to precipitate?

1. The pH of saltwater is above 11, and aluminum chloride converts into aluminate, which is harmful to subsequent electrolysis processes. 2. Magnesium hydroxide forms flocculent colloids that do not settle easily in water; therefore, air flotation combined with flocculants is used for treatment
