  • Can polyacrylamide based flocculants be used in wastewater treatment?
  • The existing polyacrylamide-based flocculants are widely used in the treatment of wastewaters with various compositions (Al-Karawi et al., 2011; Lin et al., 2017). The Saratov Chemical Plant of Acrylic Polymers Akripol currently develops and introduces new polyacrylamide-based modifications of flocculants into industry.
  • Which flocculants are used in water treatment?
  • The flocculants include: low MW anionic PAM (aPAM1, CD < 5%, Veolia Water Technologies), high MW anionic PAM (aPAM2, CD < 5%, Kemira Water Solutions Canada Inc.), low MW cationic PAM (cPAM1, CD ≈ 7%, Kemira Water Solutions Canada Inc.), low MW cationic PAM (cPAM2, CD ≈ 20%, Kemira Water Solutions Canada Inc.).
  • Why are polymer flocculants used in water purification?
  • Therefore, in modern water purification technologies, polymer flocculants are increasingly used. Polymer flocculants cause the formation of large, coherent aggregates (so-called flocs) that settle in the solution. Synthetic polymers are highly effective flocculants at low dosages but have poor shear stability.
  • What are water soluble polymer flocculants?
  • Abstract Water soluble polymer flocculants are important constituents of solid–liquid separation units for the treatment of a variety of process-affected effluents. The systematic development of a ...
