  • What are flocculants used for?
  • Flocculants are the substances used to encourage the process of creating flocs. Both flocculation and coagulation treatment chemicals are used in effluent wastewater water treatment processes for solids removal, water clarification, lime softening, sludge thickening, and solids dewatering. How do flocculation chemicals work?
  • What are coagulation chemicals used for?
  • Flocculation and coagulation treatment chemicals are used in effluent wastewater water treatment processes for solids removal, water clarification, lime softening, sludge thickening, and solids dewatering. Coagulants in water treatment are chemicals that are used to remove suspended solids from water.
  • What is flocculation in water treatment?
  • Flocculation is the process in which colloids — low-diameter particles that affect water's color or turbidity — are suspended in the form of loosely clumped particles called flocs. It can occur either spontaneously or by adding a flocculant — a water treatment chemical that aggregates the particles.
  • What coagulation products does ChemTreat offer?
  • ChemTreat has both NSF-approved and GRAS-applicable coagulation products. Examples of ChemTreat coagulation products include aluminum salts, iron salts, and polyelectrolytes. Flocculation in water treatment refers to the process of smaller particles in water coming together to form larger masses called flocs.
