Ed Talkington, a Water Plant operator and river runner from Craig, Colorado, is offering a new water treatment coagulant that allows river runners to safely and quickly settle-out river water silt and sediment.
“Water Wizard for River Runners” is Polyaluminum Chloride (PACL) or “PAC” for short. PAC is commonly used in Municipal Water Treatment and is a National Sanitation Foundation certified product.
Adding Alum (Aluminum Sulfate) to buckets of river water has been a standard river practice for many years. Ed explains the advantages of PAC over Alum this way:
“We used Alum at our plant to treat the Yampa River for many years, then in 2008 we finished a $9,000,000 plant upgrade and switched to PAC. Wow! What a difference! PAC is like Alum on steroids! PAC is specially formulated with polymers that Alum does not have. On the river PAC settles sediment in my chickee pails much faster than Alum (15 – 20 minutes) and leaves higher quality clarified water. PAC also makes filtering water much easier, greatly extending the life and effectiveness of our expensive filters”.
The product comes with complete, easy to understand instructions and 1ml measuring syringes. Safe and accurate dosages are calculated by a water treatment professional – no more mixing unknown strength alum solutions. The super concentrated liquid will treat about 250 gallons of silty river water.
*Important* – Although “Water Wizard for River Runners” removes a large amount of sediment and particulate matter in river water, it does not produce safe, potable drinking water. An approved filtration device, followed by disinfection, must be used prior to consuming water. Failure to filter and disinfect the clarified water could result in a serious waterborne illness. If you would like to use the clarified water for dishes, laundry, or bathing, that is fine – no filtration is necessary.
