From Municipal Wastewater to Industrial Effluent, We’ve Got Every Polyacrylamide Application Covered
From municipal wastewater to industrial effluent, we cover every polyacrylamide application with tailored PAM solutions for flocculation, sludge dewatering, and water purification.
Municipal Wastewater Treatment
Enhanced flocculation
Municipal wastewater contains suspended solids and colloids. PAM acts as a high-molecular flocculant, bridging particles into large flocs, improving sludge dewatering and reducing cake moisture.
Oil & Gas Produced Water
Rapid clarification and oil removal
Oil & gas produced water contains emulsified oil and fine solids. PAM helps coalesce oil droplets and aggregate particles, enabling faster separation and cleaner water in DAF or gravity separators.
Mining & Mineral Processing
Tailings dewatering and fines recovery
Mining generates fine tailings slurry. PAM enables rapid flocculation and sedimentation, accelerating thickening, reducing water recovery time, and improving filtration for stackable tailings solids.
Paper & Pulp Production
Fiber retention and sludge dewatering
Paper production generates wastewater containing fibers, fillers and colloidal contaminants. PAM acts as a retention aid and flocculant, improving fiber recovery, and enhancing sludge dewatering efficiency.
Textile & Dyeing Effluent
Color removal and rapid clarification
Textile effluent contains dyes, suspended solids and sizing agents. PAM promotes flocculation of color particles and colloids, enabling rapid clarification, reducing sludge volume, and lowering treatment costs.
Food & Beverage Wastewater
Organic solids agglomeration
Food processing wastewater contains oils, starches and fine organic solids. PAM agglomerates emulsified organics and suspended particles, speeding up sedimentation in DAF systems and lowering effluent COD levels.
CHOOSING THE RIGHT PAM
From Cationic to Anionic to Non-Ionic, We’ve Got Every PAM Type Covered
Cationic PAM works best for organic-rich sludge and wastewater treatment. Anionic PAM excels in mineral processing and suspended solids removal. Non-ionic PAM is ideal for acidic or high-salinity conditions. We match the right polymer to your specific water chemistry.
| Type | Typical Applications | Application Method |
|---|---|---|
| Anionic PAM | Mining tailings, mineral processing, coal washing, ceramic wastewater, suspended solids removal in neutral/alkaline conditions | Prepare a 0.1%–0.3% solution and dose into flocculation tanks or inline mixers. Uses charge neutralization and bridging to achieve rapid particle settling. |
| Cationic PAM | Municipal sewage, textile dyeing effluent, paper mill sludge, food processing wastewater, organic-rich sludge dewatering | Prepare a 0.1%–0.5% solution. Commonly used with belt filter presses or centrifuges. Combines with negatively charged organics via charge neutralization for efficient solid-liquid separation. |
| Non-ionic PAM | Acidic wastewater, electroplating effluent, high-salinity chemical wastewater, variable-condition pretreatment | Prepare a 0.1%–0.2% solution. Dose at the inlet of sedimentation tanks or DAF units. Suitable for a wide pH range (2–12) but sensitive to high shear environments. |
