Water clarification is a fundamental step in both municipal and industrial water treatment, aimed at removing suspended impurities to produce clean, usable water. NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. showcases the critical role of Anionic Polyacrylamide (APAM) as a leading flocculant in achieving superior water clarity.

The efficacy of APAM in water clarification stems from its ability to aggregate fine suspended particles into larger, more manageable flocs. These suspended particles, often colloidal in nature, can remain dispersed in water, making it appear turbid. APAM, with its high molecular weight and anionic charge, acts by bridging these particles together. The long polymer chains adsorb onto the surface of multiple particles, effectively linking them into larger aggregates. This process is known as flocculation.

The larger flocs formed by APAM are significantly easier to separate from the water through sedimentation or filtration. This leads to a dramatic improvement in water clarity. In many water treatment plants, APAM is used as a secondary treatment agent, often following a primary coagulant like Polyaluminium Chloride (PAC) or Ferric Sulfate. The coagulant destabilizes the particles, making them more receptive to flocculation by APAM. This two-stage approach is highly effective in removing a broad spectrum of impurities.

Key industries benefiting from APAM in water clarification include municipal water treatment facilities, power plants (for cooling water treatment), mining operations (for tailings thickening and water recovery), and paper mills (for process water treatment and fiber recovery). In each of these applications, the goal is to remove suspended solids, improve water quality, and often, to facilitate water recycling.

The advantages of using APAM include its high efficiency even at low dosages, its compatibility with a wide range of water chemistries, and its cost-effectiveness. By enabling more efficient solid-liquid separation, APAM reduces the load on downstream filtration equipment and can lead to lower overall treatment costs.
