Polyacrylamide is a water-soluble polymer used to modify water viscosity or to promote flocculation and solid-liquid separation. Blufloc powder is available in anionic, cationic and nonionic types.

Anionic PAM is a common starting point for mineral and inorganic suspended solids, while cationic PAM is commonly screened for organic and biological sludge dewatering. The correct product must be confirmed with the actual process material.

The supplied TDS recommends a working solution concentration of 0.1-0.5%. The final concentration should also suit the viscosity range and capability of the preparation and dosing system.

Approximately one hour of agitation is generally required, although dissolution time varies with ionic type, water quality, temperature and mixing conditions. The solution should be uniform and free of lumps before use.

The TDS specifies a storage range of 0-35°C and protection from direct sunlight. In severe winter climates, use dry indoor or temperature-protected storage and plan protected transport when temperatures are below 0°C.

In some systems, optimized PAM use may reduce coagulant demand. However, PAM is often used as a flocculant or coagulant aid and should not automatically replace primary coagulants without comparative jar testing.

There is no universal dosage. It depends on solids concentration, particle chemistry, pH, salinity, temperature, upstream chemicals, mixing energy and separation equipment. Determine the starting dose through laboratory screening and confirm it in a controlled plant trial.

Blufloc polyacrylamide powder is packed in 25 kg kraft paper or PE bags with inner plastic liners, or in 750 kg net big bags.
