Chemtex’s Poly Electrolytes or Poly Acrylamides improve the performance of waste water process and clarifier operation, thus producing less carryover and foaming, lower B.D.P., drier sludge and removal of offensive odors.

Polyelectrolyte is a long chain of repeating monomers (electrolyte). They are available in white powder . Polyelectrolytes when dissolved in water get charged due to the presence of the electrolyte group, and hence they help in neutralization of the suspended colloids or the small flocs produced after coagulation. The high molecular weight of polyelectrolytes aid in fast settling of the flocs.    There are 4 types of polyelectrolyte used in water treatment industries. ·          Anionic Polyelectrolyte –   Negatively charged. ·          Cationic Polyelectrolyte – Positively charged. ·          Nonionic Polyelectrolyte – No charge. ·          Amphoteric Polyelectrolyte– Contains both positively and negatively charged groups. Dosage : The amount of chemical required to perform depends on the type of application and product. The specific dosage rates and method will be specified by the CSL technical representative. Application: Organic or inorganic c
