What is a high molecular weight anionic polymer flocculant?

High molecular weight anionic polymer flocculant. Accepta 2047 is a superior quality anionic high molecular weight latex emulsion polyacrylamide co-polymer for effluent and wastewater treatment.

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 are the different types of polyacrylamide flocculants?

1. Introduction It is well known that polyacrylamide (PAM), which is a type of water-soluble polymer, is widely used in industrial wastewater treatment as a flocculant , . In general, these flocculants can be divided into three groups, depending on the nature of their charge, i.e., cationic-PAM, anionic-PAM and non-ionic-PAM.

What is cationic polyacrylamide flocculant?

Cationic polyacrylamide is widely used for municipal sewage treatment. Its sludge dewatering qualities make it the best for sewage treatment. Cationic polyacrylamide flocculant is grouped depending on its levels of ionicity. The ionicity levels include strong, medium, and weak.

Which polyacrylamide has a good flocculation efficiency?

Flocculation performance of four kinds of polyacrylamide (PAM) with different chain end group, namely, PAM, star-PAM, PGS-PAM and Al (OH) 3 -PAM hybrids, in Kaolin suspensions have been investigated by Spectrophotometer. It was found that their flocculation efficiency deceases in the order: PGS-PAM -PAM PAM.

Why is polyacrylamide used as a flocculant?

Polyacrylamide (PAM) is a commonly used polymeric flocculant because it is possible to synthesize polyacrylamides (PAMs) with various functionalities (positive, neutral, or negative charge) which can be used to produce a good settling performance at relatively low cost.
