Flocculant PAM

Flocculant PAM

Basic Information

  • Product Name: Flocculant PAM
  • Catalog: ECO-WT-014
  • Applications: Sludge dewatering, solid-liquid separation, wastewater treatment, oil and gas industry.

Polyacrylamide (PAM) is a high-molecular-weight, water-soluble polymer. As a crucial agent in water treatment processes, its ability to aggregate suspended particles into larger flocs, thereby improving the clarity and quality of treated water, makes it indispensable across various industries.

Features

  • High Water Solubility: PAM dissolves easily in water, forming a stable and homogenous solution that can be readily applied across various systems.
  • Enhanced Coagulation and Flocculation: When used in conjunction with coagulants, PAM improves floc formation, leading to better separation of solids from liquids.
  • Versatility: It is effective in a wide range of pH conditions, making it suitable for diverse industrial applications.

Applications

  • Sludge Dewatering: In wastewater treatment, PAM facilitates the removal of excess water from sludge, reducing its volume and weight, thus lowering disposal costs.
  • Solid-liquid Separation: It enhances the separation process in industries such as mining, coal washing, and food processing by improving the clarity of filtrates and the quality of recovered solids.
  • Wastewater Treatment: PAM is essential in treating industrial wastewater and municipal sewage, where it helps in removing suspended solids, organic matter, and other pollutants.
  • Oil and Gas Industry: PAM is used as an additive in drilling fluids, improving the viscosity and stability of the mud, and thereby enhancing drilling efficiency.

Usage Instructions

  • To use PAM, prepare a 0.1% solution in neutral, salt-free water. Add the polymer gradually to stirred water, with mild heating (<60°C) to speed dissolution. Optimal dosage is 0.5–2 g/ton.

Packaging and Storage

  • Packaging: Typically packaged in 25 kg polypropylene bags with plastic liners.
  • Storage: Store in a sealed, cool, dry place below 35°C to prevent moisture absorption and avoid spills.
