Anionic Polyacrylamide APAM for Cane Sugar Process Clarification CAS 9003-05-8 ISO 9001 Manufacturer 25kg PE Bag

Product overview

Cane juice contains suspended plant material and impurities that must be separated through a controlled clarification process. The polymer must work with the chosen juice treatment, temperature and clarifier design. A grade that produces visible flocs in a cold beaker may behave differently in the operating process.

Residual monomer control is an important purchasing parameter, but it does not independently establish a product's suitability for food manufacture. Bluwat's selection discussion should identify the exact APAM grade and the application before performance trials proceed. Product specifications and final juice quality are separate parts of the assessment.

Product benefits

Technical data

Application process

Review grade identity and permitted use before testing in cane juice. Establish a baseline using the mill's normal pretreatment and thermal conditions. Prepare the powder separately and add the matured solution at the appropriate point after the clarification reaction. Run controlled dose comparisons within the confirmed limits and verify the best conditions at pilot or plant scale.

Grade and dosage selection

Specify whether the application involves raw juice, treated juice, liquor or another stream; these labels should not be treated as interchangeable. Choose the polymer charge and molecular weight around the process chemistry and separation requirement. The residual monomer limit refers to the supplied polymer, not an allowed acrylamide concentration in the finished sugar or the clarified juice.

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 25 kg PE bag with an inner plastic liner. 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.
