Flocculant agents or flocculants play a crucial role in the separation and consolidation of fine particles from liquids.
Product | Description | Benefits | Applications |
---|---|---|---|
Anionic Polyacrylamide | Anionic Polyacrylamide (APAM) | Aggregation of fine particles into larger flocs, for easier separation from the liquid phase. Enhances settling rate of particles in thickeners, clarifiers, and sedimentation tanks. Improves the dewatering efficiency of slurries in filter presses, centrifuges, and belt presses. Reduces the turbidity of process water and effluents by flocculating suspended solids, and improving water quality. Cost-effective, reducing the need for large amounts of chemicals and lowering operational costs associated with water treatment and solid-liquid separation. Suitable for various pH ranges and types of slurries, making it versatile for different mineral processing operations. | Thickening and Clarification. Dewatering of Tailings and Sludges. Flotation Processes. Water Treatment. Mine Backfill. |
Product and customer insights
CHALLENGE A municipal reverse osmosis (RO) plant, with a capacity of 2 million gallons per day (MGD), faced frequent system cleanings, every 2-4 months, due to rising feed pressure. The plant, which sources water from brackish wells and uses Toray TMG-20D-400 membranes in a (16×7) -> (8×7) train configuration, was operating at 78% recovery. Despite […]
Despite numerous cleanings, the productivity of the Reverse Osmosis plant would not recover from severe membrane fouling. The membrane autopsy revealed that the ferric hydroxide was seeding
silica polymerization and that even while the ferric hydroxide was removed, the silica scaling was continuing to grow.
The plant was experiencing weekly shutdowns for fiber clean up (~ 3 kg bags of matted slurry is cleaned per week). The shut downs were costly as they reduce plant availability for production.
The International Maritime Organisation (IMO) regulation, known as IMO 2020 was the the largest change in regulation relating to marine fuels impacting 75% of the fuel used by the shipping industry.
Keeping drilling costs low using Redi-Guard™ High Performance, an ecologically friendly drilling fluid technology with revolutionary rheological and shale encapsulation properties
AWC A-110 effectively inhibited scale at a dosage of 3.5 ppm and an operating pH of 6.9. This increase in operating pH reduced the district’s annual acid consumption by ~$350K per year based on their current production.
Research indicates that Sea Buckthorn may be able to strengthen the immune system. One in vitro study focused on the possible immunomodulatory properties of Sea Buckthorn.
MCI® -2020 V/O and ChemMaster’s Colorsil were chosen to repair and protect the walls based on their 20 year warranties and the fact that together they could fulfill the other specified repair design requirements.
The East Hokkaido region is known to have the highest volume of potato product in Japan. Unfortunately, a potato farmer in the area was experiencing a high rate of potato scab infection in his agricultural field.
