SODIUM ALUMINATE
CAS No .: 1302-42-7
Chemical Formula: NaAlO2
Description
_:
NAS/CWTC 0017/82
Formula Weight: 82 0
.
A combination of sodium oxide and aluminum oxide with
sufficient excess causticity to stabilize. Solid form
usually contains 70-80% sodium aluminate; solutions,
approximately 30% sodium aluminate.
Used as coagulant
.
Purity Requirements
The RMIC values are based on a maximum dosage of 40 mg of
sodium aluminate/liter of water and are to be compared to
impurity concentrations obtained by using sample proce-
dures described in this monograph. If the actual dosage
_ other than 40 mg/liter, the user is cautioned to
consult Table 2 for appropriate RMIC values.

Bulk Sample Collection:
1
Sample in accordance with Standard for Sodium Aluminate,
ANNA B405-60, American Water Works Association, Denver,
Colorado (1960).
Analytical Sample Preparation:
In preparing samples, use acid-washed glassware and make
all dilutions with deionized distilled water. Weigh 0.4
g of sodium aluminate (dry weight basis), dissolve, and
make up to 1 liter in a volumetric flask. Transfer the
solution to a 1.5-liter beaker, add 1 N of NaOH dropwise
with constant stirring to adjust to pa 6. Mix well, let
stand for 1 hour, and filter through a GF/C filter (or
equivalent) with vacuum. Quantitatively transfer filtrate
into a beaker, adjust to pH of 2 or less with concentrated
HNO3, and evaporate on a hot plate, without boiling, to
reduce the volume to less than 1 liter. Cool, quantita-
tively transfer to a 1-liter volumetric flask, and make
up to volume. Similarly, treat a reagent blank.
Sample Analyses:
The analyses are to be performed on the sodium aluminate
solution in accordance with:
