High-MW APAM for Industrial Water Treatment

Anionic flocculants are negatively charged high-molecular-weight polymers that play a pivotal role in water treatment by aggregating suspended solids into larger flocs, which then settle or filter more effectively. At Feymer Technology, we specialize in producing anionic polyacrylamide (APAM) with molecular weights ranging from 5 to 25 million g/mol and varying degrees of hydrolysis to tailor performance to specific water chemistries. These anionic flocculants are particularly effective in treating wastewater with high turbidity, high pH, or high levels of organic contaminants common in pulp and paper, textile, and chemical industries. The mechanism of flocculation involves polymer chains adsorbing onto particle surfaces, bridging multiple particles to form large, sturdy flocs that settle rapidly, thereby increasing the efficiency of clarifiers and thickeners. Feymer’s anionic flocculants are engineered to perform optimally in both fresh and saltwater conditions, ensuring versatility across diverse global markets. Our advanced production facilities, equipped with state-of-the-art reactors and quality control systems, guarantee consistent product quality and batch-to-batch uniformity. Moreover, we offer technical support to help clients optimize dosage rates and dissolution processes, maximizing treatment efficiency while minimizing costs.
