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.

Can polyacrylamide flocculant improve water purification capacity?

Using organic polyacrylamide flocculant instead of inorganic flocculant, even don’t modify the sedimentation tank, it can increase water purification capacity by more than 20%. In sewage treatment, the use of PAM flocculant can increase the utilization rate of water recycling and can also be used for sludge dewatering.

How to prepare flocculant of cationic polyacrylamide PAMC?

Raw materials Flocculant of cationic polyacrylamide PAMC was prepared in our laboratory through low-pressure ultraviolet initiation by copolymerization of acrylamide and [2- (methacryloyloxy) ethyl] trimethyl ammonium chloride.

What is polyacrylamide (PAM)?

Polyacrylamide (PAM) is a type flocculant of polymer that is soluble in water, and it is formed through acrylamide polymerization. It can be adjusted for use in a wide range of applications. This type of polymer is produced and sold in different forms, which include cationic polyacrylamide, anionic polyacrylamide, and non-anionic.

How cationic polyacrylamide (PAMC) is prepared?

Flocculation and mechanism was discussed based on zeta potential and pH analysis. A novel cationic polyacrylamide (PAMC) with various cationic monomer contents were prepared by copolymerizing acrylamide (AM) and methacryloxyethyl trimethyl ammonium chloride aqueous solution (DMC) through low-pressure ultraviolet (UV) initiation.

What is cationic polyacrylamide (CPAM)?

Cationic polyacrylamide (CPAM) is one of the most frequently used flocculants with high intrinsic viscosity and charge density. This flocculant is a water-soluble acrylamide-based polymer having cationic quaternary ammonium groups .
