"Anyone can sell you a drum. We tell you how to dose it. That is the difference between a trader and a chemistry partner, and we are deliberately the second."
From the founder · Austin Anderson Solutions
03 · Sectors served

Six industrial sectors, one chemistry desk. Each with its own dosing programme.

AAS supports Pakistani plants where water touches the process: thermal and combined-cycle power, refining and petrochemicals, textile dyeing and finishing, food and beverage, municipal water utilities, and industrial recycling. Every sector below is staffed by an engineer who has stood at the dosing pump.

04 · Product chemistries

The stocked SKU list. Every drum carries a batch CoA.

Chemistries kept on the Karachi shelf and shipped from China against rolling stockholding orders. Each entry below has a dosage range, application note, and field-tested compatibility map. Anything off-list is engineered to spec on a 6 to 8 week lead time.

PAC Polyaluminium chloride Coagulant for municipal water clarification, dyehouse effluent, and pulp-and-paper. 30% Al₂O₃ basicity grades available. Liquid · Powder
CPAM Cationic polyacrylamide Sludge dewatering and clarifier flocculation across municipal, textile, and food-process effluents. Multiple charge densities. Powder · Emulsion
UN-307 RO scale inhibitor Phosphonate-based antiscalant for reverse-osmosis membranes. Effective against carbonate, sulfate, silica, and iron scales. Liquid concentrate
UN-611 RO membrane biocide Non-oxidising biocide for biofouling control in RO systems. Compatible with polyamide membranes. Liquid

AD-303 Cooling-tower corrosion inhibitor Mild-steel and copper-alloy corrosion inhibitor for cooling loops. Synergistic with AD-401 dispersant programme. Liquid
AD-402 Recirculating-system fungicide Non-oxidising biocide for cooling towers, condensers, and process cooling. Effective against algae, bacteria, and fungi. Liquid
AA/∞ Custom chemistries on request Antifoams, oxygen scavengers, dispersants, sequestrants, specialty boiler treatments. Engineered to your feedwater profile. Spec to order
05 · The standards we hold ourselves to

What you should ask any chemistry supplier. Here are our answers.

A drum without documentation is a liability. Every shipment from AAS arrives with the four documents below. Where regulators license the chemistry, we hold the licence and we send the licence number with the offer, not after the PO.

STANDARD · 01

Per-batch certificate of analysis

Every lot is sampled, analysed at our principal's lab, and shipped with a numbered CoA. Re-tested in Karachi when required for high-spec sites. Hold-time samples retained 12 months.

STANDARD · 02

NSF / USP / BS where applicable

Chemistries entering food, beverage, or potable-water systems carry NSF Standard 60 or USP-grade documentation. Cooling chemistries align with BS 8580 and CTI guidelines.

STANDARD · 03

ISO 9001 manufacturing

Both principals operate ISO 9001-certified facilities. Quality plans audited at the source. Customer audits are welcomed; we have hosted them with refining and food-grade buyers.

STANDARD · 04

Pakistan licensing & PEC

Engineering services delivered under Pakistan Engineering Council registration. Chemicals comply with PCMA and Pakistan Standards Quality Control Authority (PSQCA) where mandated.

STANDARD · 05

SDS in your language

Safety data sheets in English and Urdu. Hazard communication training available for plant operators. Spill response and PPE guidance included with every first shipment.

STANDARD · 06

Reach-back to the chemist

Anomalous test results, scaling events, foaming spikes? You are talking to the engineer who specified the dosing programme, not a customer-service triage queue.

06 · Engineering services

Six service lines that wrap the chemistry. This is how the dosing actually works.

AAS does not sell chemicals and walk away. Each of the six service lines below is staffed by a qualified water-treatment engineer who has commissioned the kit, autopsied the membrane, or rebuilt the dosing skid. You buy the drum because of what comes around it.

AA / S1

Feedwater audit & dosing programme

Lab analysis, scaling indices, microbial counts, and a written dosing programme tied to your feedwater profile. Quarterly re-audits track drift.
Site visit · Lab work · Programme report
