Do polyaluminium chloride and anionic polyacrylamide water treatment residuals adsorb phosphorus?

Polyaluminium chloride and anionic polyacrylamide water treatment residuals (PAC-APAM WTRs) as an amendment in three types of soils with the ratios (w/w) of 10%, 15%, and 20% were evaluated for phosphorus adsorption from aqueous solutions by batch studies.

Can polyaluminium chloride and anionic polyacrylamide remove CD 2+ and Zn 2+?

Water treatment residuals produced after addition of polyaluminium chloride and anionic polyacrylamide (PAC-APAM WTRs) were evaluated for the potential to remove Cd 2+ and Zn 2+ from aqueous solutions by batch adsorption studies.

Can anionic polyacrylamide be used as a coagulant in water treatment sludge?

Also, using anionic polyacrylamide (APAM) as a coagulant in the dewatering process of water treatment sludge has been a regular practice to accelerate the dewatering process and decrease the size of dewatering tanks or ponds in large-scale drinking water treatment plants.

What is anionic polyacrylamide (PAM)?

Anionic polyacrylamide (PAM) possesses interconnected and active groups that establish robust bonds with the surface of suspended colloids, promoting the formation of coarse particles among the suspended solids and a mixture of insoluble particles in water (Irfan et al. 2017).

Is polyaluminium chloride a coagulant?

Meanwhile, polyaluminium chloride (PAC) is increasingly being used as the coagulant to replace the traditional Al-salt based coagulant around the world.

What is the most effective dosage for polyaluminum chloride (PAC) & aluminum sulfate (FEC?

The findings revealed that the most effective dosages for polyaluminum chloride (PAC), aluminum sulfate (Al 2 (SO 4) 3), and ferric chloride (FeCl 3) were 20, 10, and 20 mg/L, respectively.
