  • 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 .
  • 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.
  • Does cationic polyacrylamide flocculate Phaeodactylum tricornutum?
  • However, Nguyen et al., observed high flocculation efficiency of marine microalgae Phaeodactylum tricornutum with a cationic polyacrylamide flocculant (FO3801). The discrepancy in the literature suggested that a future flocculation study using one type of polymer with multiple marine species.
  • Can cationic flocculants be synthesised by UV-induced polymerization?
  • 4. Conclusions This study demonstrated facile synthesis of two cationic flocculants via UV-induced polymerization of monomers [2- (acryloyloxy)ethyl]trimethylammonium chloride and (3-acrylamidopropyl)trimethylammonium chloride for harvesting freshwater green microalgae ( C. vulgaris) and marine red microalgae ( P. purpureum ).
