Poly-silicate aluminum ferric chloride sulfate(PSiAFCS), a new type of inorganic polymeric flocculant has been prepared mainly with coal fuel ash. The optimal conditions of its preparation are discussed. The X-ray diffraction curves on PSiAFCS is analyzed. At the same time, the flocculating effect of PSiAFCS, PSiAFC and PAC on the Ganjiang water samples is compared. The results show that the optimal preparation conditions are as follows: n (Al) :n (SO4^2-) = 11 : 1, n (Al +Fe) :n (Si) = 10:1, the temperature of polymeric 60 ℃ a...
