The flocculant is a chemical that can gather solid particles that can float in liquid into larger and heavier blocks to sink or filter separation. The main components of the flocculant can be selected according to different applications and goals. The following are some common flocculant components:
Inorganic salts: such as aluminum salt and iron salt, including aluminum (such as aluminum chloride, aluminum sulfate), iron (such as iron chloride, iron sulfate). These inorganic salts form a cation in the water and combine with the negatively charged suspended particles to form a large flocculation block.
Organic polymer: such as polymer chlorine, polymer aluminum sulfate, etc. These organic polymers have a chemical response or physical effect on the surface of the suspended particles in the water, so that the particles are condensed into larger group blocks.
Polymer collagen: including polymer polymer such as polyacrylamide (PAM) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA). These polymers can have a physical adsorption effect with the surface of the suspended particles to form a flocculation block.
Organic amine: such as polyethamine (PDA) and polyacrylamide amine cepatobata -based (PDA). These organic amines are interacting with the charged substances on the surface of the particles to form flocculation condensation.
It should be noted that different flocculant components have different applicability and effects on different types of suspended particles. In practical applications, you need to choose the appropriate flocculant component according to the specific water quality characteristics and processing targets, and perform appropriate tests and adjustments to achieve a good flocculation effect.
