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.

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.

Can polyacrylamide powder be added to sewage?

Polyacrylamide powder can’t be directly added to sewage. It must be dissolved in water before use, and then use polyacrylamide solution for sewage treatment. Use clean water to dissolve PAM powder. Generally, just use water at room temperature, no need to heat it. However, the dissolution is very slow when the water temperature is lower than 5℃.

What is Pam chemical used for?

It can enhance flocculation, reduce the cost of clean water, improve water quality, and remove organic matter and algae in the water. PAM chemical has a wide range of applications in water treatment, petroleum exploration, textile, papermaking, mineral processing, medicine, agriculture and other industrial fields.

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 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.
