Flocculant for wastewater treatment.
AquaCode® WASTE 8490 is a high molecular weight cationic polyelectrolyte based on acrylamide and a cationic derivative of acrylamide. The formulation is mainly used for wastewater treatment, as well as for the thickening and dewatering of municipal
and industrial sludge (centrifuges, screen belt presses, chamber filter presses). The AquaCode WASTE 8490 mode of action is based on the exchange of ions between the electrical charges along the polymer chain present in the aqueous solution and the surface charges on the suspended solid particles. The surfaces of the particles are destabilized, resulting in the coagulation of the
or flocculation.
