Chemical Treatment Components for Water and Wastewater Polymers - Coagulants - Emulsion Breakers

Polymer Treatment and Sludge Conditioning We supply Dry and Liquid Emulsion Polymers. Emulsion polymers are the most concentrated of the liquid polymer family varying from 20% to 50% activity as compared to dry products which are 100% active. SPINPRO polymers are available in solutions of coagulants, flocculants, emulsions, or dry flocculants.

How they work:
  • Aggregation: Dewatering polymers, particularly high molecular weight cationic polymers, are designed to bind with the negatively charged particles in the sludge or slurry. 
  • Flocculation: This binding creates larger, interconnected clumps of solids (floc). 
  • Increased settling and dewatering: The larger floc settles out of the water more quickly and can be mechanically dewatered more efficiently, resulting in a drier, more friable solid mass. 
Types of polymers:
  • Cationic polymers: Positively charged, often preferred for sludge dewatering.
  • Anionic polymers: Negatively charged.
  • Nonionic polymers: Neutral charge. 
Applications:
  • Sludge dewatering: In municipal wastewater treatment plants, and industrial processes.
  • Tailings dewatering: In mining operations.
  • Sedimentation: Removing suspended solids in water treatment.
  • Other applications: Food processing, agricultural and dairy industries. 
Benefits:
  • Reduced sludge volume: Makes sludge management more cost-effective.
  • Improved dewatering efficiency: Allows for easier separation of solids and water.
  • Enhanced settling: Enables rapid removal of solids from wastewater. 
In essence, dewatering polymers are essential tools for efficiently separating water from solids, making them a key component in various water treatment and industrial processes.
