Tanfloc is an innovative, tannin-based coagulant derived from the bark of the Black Acacia (Wattle) tree, offering a biodegradable, renewable, and eco-friendly approach to water and wastewater treatment. Designed to effectively remove suspended particles, organic matter, and even heavy metals, Tanfloc provides industries with a high-performance solution that reduces environmental impact.
Manufactured by Tanac, a company with a deep-rooted commitment to responsible forestry and environmental preservation, Tanfloc is produced from sustainably managed Black Acacia forests spanning 930 km². These forests are certified and maintained through sustainable practices, ensuring long-term resource availability while supporting responsible land management.
One of Tanfloc’s most significant environmental benefits is its positive carbon impact. For every tonne of CO₂ emitted during its production, Tanac’s forests absorb 21 tonnes of CO₂, making Tanfloc one of the most climate-friendly coagulants available.
Beyond sustainability, Tanac’s operations provide economic benefits to local communities. The company actively employs local families and rents land from small landowners for tree cultivation, ensuring that its forestry operations contribute to both environmental and social well-being.
Certified by ISO 9002, ISO 14001, Halal, and NSF, Tanfloc meets high international standards for quality, safety, and environmental responsibility.
With growing emphasis on sustainable water management, Tanfloc offers a natural and effective alternative that enhances treatment efficiency while maintaining environmental integrity.
Versatile & Safe: Suitable for food, mining, petrochemical, and municipal water treatment applications, Tanfloc is available in both liquid and powder forms to suit diverse treatment needs.
With over two decades of real-world success, Tanfloc continues to provide industries with an innovative and sustainable approach to water treatment. By choosing Tanfloc, industries benefit from effective contaminant removal, reduced chemical dependency, and a naturally sourced, environmentally responsible solution.
Tanfloc is exceptional for treating algae-laden water. Low dosages are required to coagulate and flocculate algae from water affected by HAB or if harvesting techniques are used for algae capture.
Reduction in turbidity of over 90%. A common result when using Tanfloc in high organic loaded wastewater. Turbidity measuring is the most practical way to indicate efficiency in the coagulation and flocculation.
Sludge capture is enhanced with Tanfloc, forming a thick and dense sludge—30% denser than metallic alternatives. This improves upstream biosolids processing and facilitates disposal. Over 90% of TSS is recovered.
The notable difference in water turbidity can be observed at the top of the DAF unit. The strong wine-like colour results from the combination of haemoglobin from blood in the water and tannins. Colour causing agents are highly oxidative and are removed in subsequent biological treatment stages.
