Some gardeners take a longer route and use iron or aluminum sulfate.

But alum (the common name for aluminum sulfate), is an enemy of the cellulose fibers in paper.

For example, prominent carriers for nitrogen are ammonia compounds or aluminum sulfate.

In 2003 the lake was treated with aluminum sulfate to encapsulate the phosphorus.

The triacetate forms when aluminum sulfate is mixed with barium acetate.

Most industrial flocculation done with alum is actually aluminum sulfate.

The city's early engineers designed a system that only on rare occasions would have to rely on a chemical, aluminum sulfate, to reduce turbidity.

From 1897 to 1899, Fuller investigated mechanical filtration using the addition of aluminum sulfate followed by a sedimentation step before the final filtration process.

When the water is too cloudy, aluminum sulfate is added to encourage suspended particles to settle out.

The city has long controlled occasional turbidity by adding to the water a substance called aluminum sulfate, which makes particles clump and sink.
