How can polyacrylamide and inorganic flocculants improve water quality?

Improve water quality. In drinking water treatment and industrial wastewater treatment, the combined use of polyacrylamide and inorganic flocculants can significantly improve water quality. Improve the strength and settling speed of flocs.

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.

What is cationic polyacrylamide used for?

Cationic polyacrylamide can also be used as an oil field chemical additive, such as clay anti swelling agent, thickening agent for oil acidification and paper making reinforcing agent. Nonionic polyacrylamide is suitable for separation of suspended solids in organic and inorganic mixtures, and the solution is acidic or neutral.

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 be used as a coagulant aid?

Reduce the amount of flocculant. Under the premise of achieving the same water quality, the use of polyacrylamide as a coagulant aid in combination with other flocculants can greatly reduce the amount of flocculant used. Improve water quality.

What is polyacrylamide used for?

And high molecular weight polyacrylamide is used as a flocculant in the treatment of papermaking wastewater. At present, anionic PAM is most used in the paper industry. In food industry, it is used for cane juice clarification and syrup phosphorus floatation extraction in the production of cane sugar and beet sugar.
