Polyacrylamide (PAM) is not only a cornerstone in water and wastewater treatment but also a critical enabler of efficiency and quality in diverse industrial sectors, notably paper manufacturing and oil extraction. The unique properties of PAM, particularly its ability to alter the rheology of fluids and interact with particles, make it an invaluable additive in these demanding applications. NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. highlights the significant impact of polyacrylamide in these industrial processes.

In the paper industry, Polyacrylamide serves as a multifaceted additive, primarily functioning as a retention aid, a filter aid, and an equalizer. Its role as a retention aid is crucial for improving the efficiency of the papermaking process. By promoting the retention of fine fibers, fillers, and pigments within the paper sheet, PAM helps to minimize material loss and improve the overall quality of the final paper product. This translates to better opacity, brightness, and printability. As a filter aid, PAM assists in the separation of solid fibers from water during the paper formation process, leading to more efficient dewatering and reduced energy consumption in drying stages. The ability of polyacrylamide to improve the strength of paper, both wet and dry, further underscores its importance in this industry. Its application in treating the complex wastewater generated from paper production also contributes to environmental sustainability.

The oil and gas industry leverages Polyacrylamide, particularly in enhanced oil recovery (EOR) operations. When conventional waterflooding methods reach their limit, injecting viscous polymer solutions, typically based on PAM, becomes a critical technique to improve oil extraction. The high molecular weight and unique rheological properties of PAM allow it to significantly increase the viscosity of the injected water. This higher viscosity improves the sweep efficiency of the reservoir, pushing more trapped oil towards the production wells. By reducing the mobility of water relative to oil, PAM-based EOR methods can substantially increase the overall recovery factor of oil fields. The role of polyacrylamide in oil extraction is a testament to its ability to manipulate fluid dynamics for maximum resource utilization.

The effectiveness of polyacrylamide in these sectors is further amplified by its availability in various forms – powder, emulsion, and dispersion – allowing for tailored application. NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. is committed to supplying high-quality polyacrylamide that meets the stringent requirements of these industries.
