Frequent Uses

Water Treatment
A common flocculant used in water treatment plants, causing suspended particles in water to clump together, forming larger particles that settle out or are easier to filter. 

Textiles
Acts as a mordant in dyeing and printing textiles which helps the dye adhere to the fabric fibers, making the colour more permanent.

Gardening
Used to lower the pH of garden soil, making it more acidic, which is beneficial for certain plants like hydrangeas, azaleas, and rhododendrons. 

Construction
Can also be used in concrete as a waterproofing agent and accelerator.
