Product Description

Polyacrylamide (PAM) is an innovative and versatile water-soluble synthetic polymer, meticulously crafted through the polymerization . Available in diverse forms such as powder, granular, or gel, PAM is celebrated for its multifaceted applications. As a flocculant in water treatment, it ensures pristine water quality by effectively clumping together impurities. In the realm of oil recovery, PAM acts as a superior viscosity enhancer, significantly boosting extraction efficiency. In the art of papermaking, it serves as a reliable retention agent, enhancing the quality and retention of fibers.

Polyacrylamide (PAM) in Wastewater Treatment: Key Applications
Polyacrylamide (PAM), a water-soluble polymer, is widely utilized in wastewater treatment due to its exceptional flocculation and coagulation properties. Below are its primary applications in this field:
1. Flocculation and Sedimentation
PAM acts as a high-efficiency flocculant, binding suspended particles (e.g., colloids, organic matter, heavy metals) through charge neutralization and bridging mechanisms. This forms large, dense flocs that settle rapidly, enhancing clarification in both industrial and municipal wastewater systems.
2. Sludge Dewatering
Cationic PAM (CPAM) is extensively used in sludge conditioning. It neutralizes the negative charge on sludge particles, improving agglomeration and dewatering efficiency. This reduces sludge volume, lowering disposal costs and environmental impact.
3. Industrial Wastewater Treatment
Mining/Metallurgy: Anionic PAM (APAM) treats wastewater with high suspended solids, aiding in solid-liquid separation.
Oilfield/Textile: PAM removes emulsified oils and dyes, improving water reuse.
Paper/Petrochemical: Enhances removal of organic pollutants and stabilizes treatment processes.
4. Municipal Sewage Treatment
PAM accelerates pollutant removal in primary and secondary treatments, ensuring compliance with discharge standards. It also aids in phosphorus removal to mitigate eutrophication risks.
5. Coagulant Aid
PAM is often paired with inorganic coagulants to boost efficiency, reduce chemical usage, and minimize sludge production.
Advantages
High adaptability to varying water qualities.
Low dosage with significant effect.
Cost-effective by optimizing treatment processes.
