Anionic Polyacrylamide APAM 20-100 Mesh 89% Min Solid for Sugar Juice Clarification CAS 9003-05-8 ISO 9001 Manufacturer 750kg Net Big Bag

Product overview

Sugar juice clarification separates suspended impurities and coagulated material while retaining the dissolved sugar in the liquid phase. The quality of clarification depends on juice preparation, temperature, pH, the upstream reaction and the operation of the clarifier. Polymer selection is one part of that complete process.

A compatible APAM can assist particle bridging and floc growth after the clarification chemistry has formed separable solids. Bluwat evaluates the grade against juice characteristics and the plant's quality requirements. Industrial PAM specifications alone do not establish suitability for direct addition to a food stream.

Technical data

Application process

First confirm that the proposed grade is permitted for the exact juice application. Use representative juice under the plant's relevant temperature and pretreatment conditions. Prepare the polymer in a separate unit using suitable water, dose only within the confirmed use conditions and provide sufficient contact for floc growth. Validate promising tests in the clarifier before adopting a routine feed setting.

Grade and dosage selection

Compare charge and molecular weight using the existing clarification chemistry. Test the dose range allowed for the documented grade and destination market rather than applying a generic wastewater dose. A 0.1–0.5% make-up solution is not the permissible concentration in juice. Bulk supply also requires hygienically suitable handling and preparation practices for the specific production system.

Performance evaluation

Solution preparation

Prepare a 0.1–0.5% solution by mass using clean water. Add powder gradually to moving water to avoid lumps. Allow around one hour for dissolution, adjusting for grade, water quality and temperature. The TDS gives 200–400 rpm as a mixing reference; adapt mixing to the actual tank and impeller. Avoid unnecessary high shear after dissolution. A 0.1% solution contains 1 kg of product per 1,000 kg of final solution. Select the treatment dose separately through controlled trials.

Packaging storage and handling

Featured packaging is a 750 kg net big bag. Store the dry product sealed at 0–35 °C, protected from moisture and direct sunlight. The stated shelf life is two years under specified storage conditions. Reseal opened packaging and follow the current SDS for handling and spill cleanup.
