Why is polyacrylamide important in wastewater treatment?

The correct use of polyacrylamide will contribute to improving municipal wastewater treatment results, protecting water resources, and achieving sustainable development. In the wastewater treatment industry, polyacrylamide has become an indispensable agent.

What are the applications of polyacrylamide (PAM)?

As a result, PAM is widely used in municipal wastewater treatment, oil extraction, pulp and paper production, and other fields. Polyacrylamide is mainly used in the flocculation, sedimentation, and dewatering processes in municipal wastewater treatment.

What is anionic polyacrylamide used for?

Anionic polyacrylamide can pick up positively charged particles (clay, sand), much like a magnet picks up nails and other metal objects. APAM can be widely used in waste water treatment of chemical industry, municipal sewage treatment, such as coal washing, mineral processing, metallurgy, iron and steel industry and electronic industry.

What is polyacrylamide used for?

Polyacrylamide (PAM) is a high molecular weight polymer that comes in three types: cationic, anionic, and non-ionic. Its molecular chain contains a large number of covalent bonds, giving it excellent adsorption properties. As a result, PAM is widely used in municipal wastewater treatment, oil extraction, pulp and paper production, and other fields.

What is cationic polyacrylamide used for?

(2) Anionic polyacrylamide: Suitable for treating wastewater containing cationic suspended solids, such as mine wastewater and alkaline wastewater. It can bind with cationic suspended solids in the wastewater, forming flocs to promote solid-liquid separation.

What are the different types of polyacrylamide (PAM)?

YASA ET is supplier of three different kinds of PAM: non-ion polyacrylamide (NPAM), cationic polyacrylamide (CPAM), and anionic polyacrylamide (APAM). Click here to learn more. PAM chemical compounds are used to flocculate and coagulate suspended solids in water, wastewater, and soil.
