What is cationic polyacrylamide (CPAM)?

Cationic Polyacrylamide. In general, CPAM is white powder in appearance with an ionic degree ranging from 20% to 55%. It has the characteristics of high polymer electrolyte and is suitable for the treatment of wastewater with negative charge and rich in organic matter.

Can polyacrylamide flocculant improve water purification capacity?

Using organic polyacrylamide flocculant instead of inorganic flocculant, even don’t modify the sedimentation tank, it can increase water purification capacity by more than 20%. In sewage treatment, the use of PAM flocculant can increase the utilization rate of water recycling and can also be used for sludge dewatering.

What are the different types of polyacrylamide water treatment?

Description: According to ionic characteristics, it can be divided into four types, non-ionic polyacrylamide NPAM, anionic polyacrylamide APAM, cationic polyacrylamide CPAM and amphoteric polyacrylamide. At present, the PAM water treatment is generally anionic type.

Is cationic polyacrylamide suitable for suspending materials with negative charge?

Cationic polyacrylamide is suitable for suspending materials with negative charge and organic matter.

What is anionic polyacrylamide used for?

Polyacrylamide finds applications in pulp and paper production, agriculture, food processing, mining, and as a flocculant in wastewater treatment. Anionic polyacrylamide is suitable for high concentrations of positively charged inorganic suspensions, as well as coarse suspended particles (0.01-1mm), with a Ph value of neutral or alkaline solution.

Is polyacrylamide a water soluble polymer?

Polyacrylamide (PAM) is a water-soluble linear high-molecular polymer formed by the polymerization of acrylamide monomers initiated by free radicals. At the same time, it is also a kind of polymer water treatment flocculant.
