Advantages of the product

Superior Settling Performance

Our anionic polyacrylamide features ultra-high molecular weight and optimized charge density to promote rapid flocculation. By accelerating particle sedimentation in thickeners, it boosts throughput, produces clearer overflow water, and reduces flocculant consumption by 20%. This significantly lowers plant operating costs while maximizing valuable mineral recovery across demanding processing circuits.

Customized Solutions for Diverse Ores

Tailored for coal, copper, gold, and iron ore, our anionic polyacrylamide matches specific slurry pH and water chemistry. Through rigorous laboratory testing and plant trials, our technical team formulates optimal polymer grades. This precise customization minimizes chemical dosage, enhances supernatant clarity, and improves filter cake dryness to maximize overall water recovery.

Eco-Friendly and Cost-Effective

Designed for sustainable mining, Feymer's anionic polyacrylamide facilitates high-efficiency water recycling, drastically cutting freshwater consumption. Featuring low residual monomer content, it meets strict environmental compliance standards. High flocculation efficiency reduces overall dosage rates, delivering long-term savings while advancing zero-liquid discharge goals.

Anionic polyacrylamide (APAM) is a essential flocculant in modern mineral processing, enabling rapid solid-liquid separation and tailings dewatering. Operating via charge neutralization and polymer bridging, APAM aggregates fine suspended particles into large, dense flocs that settle rapidly in neutral to alkaline pH circuits. High-molecular-weight APAM ensures exceptional overflow clarity, allowing up to 95% of process water to be recycled back into processing systems. This dramatically reduces freshwater intake in arid mining regions while optimizing thickener throughput. Produced with advanced polymerization technology across Feymer’s global production network, our APAM provides stable performance across belt presses and clarifiers, supporting sustainable, compliant mining operations worldwide.

Frequently Questions

How does anionic polyacrylamide work in mining applications?

Anionic polyacrylamide (APAM) works through charge neutralization and polymer bridging mechanisms. When introduced into mineral slurries or tailings, the negatively charged polymer chains bind with suspended solids or bridge adjacent particles together. This action aggregates fine, slow-settling particles into larger, heavy flocs that precipitate rapidly under gravity. The resulting rapid sedimentation significantly clarifies the supernatant water above, making it suitable for immediate reuse in plant operations. APAM efficiency is dictated by parameters such as molecular weight, charge density, slurry pH, and particle size distribution. Our technical specialists conduct comprehensive laboratory testing to recommend the ideal product grade for your specific ore processing circuit.
Typical dosages for anionic polyacrylamide in mine tailings dewatering range between 10 and 100 grams per ton of dry solids, depending on solids concentration, slurry pH, and particle size. Because every mining circuit possesses distinct mineralogical characteristics, exact requirements must be determined through jar testing and on-site trials. Underdosing leads to incomplete flocculation and turbid overflow water, whereas overdosing increases chemical costs and causes polymer blinding in filter media. Feymer’s field engineers provide comprehensive testing services on client samples to establish the precise dosage that maximizes settling velocity, optimizes cake dryness, and minimizes operational expenditure.
