Flocculants

Product Overview

Polysilicate Aluminium Ferric (PSAF) is a new generation inorganic polymer coagulant, synthesized from silicate, aluminum salts, and ferric salts. It combines the dual coagulation benefits of aluminum and ferric ions, while the silicate polymer chains enhance adsorption and bridging effects. Compared with traditional coagulants such as PAC and PFS, PSAF delivers higher flocculation efficiency, wider pH adaptability, and lower sludge production, making it an ideal choice for modern water treatment applications.

Key Features:

• Enhanced Flocculation: Forms dense and compact flocs for faster sedimentation.
• Wide pH Range Stability: Effective across pH 6–9, suitable for varied water sources.
• Corrosion Resistance: Polysilicate component reduces metal corrosion in piping systems.
• Low Sludge Production: Minimizes residual sludge volume for easier disposal.
• High Turbidity Removal: Efficiently eliminates suspended solids, colloids, and organic matter.
• Safe and Environment-Friendly: Non-toxic, suitable for drinking water applications with proper dosing.

Applications:

1. Municipal Water Treatment: Improve water clarity, reduce turbidity, and remove color.
2. Industrial Wastewater Treatment: Efficient in textile, dyeing, paper, and chemical wastewater.
3. Potable Water Purification: Safe for drinking water when applied with recommended dosages.
4. Sludge Conditioning: Enhances dewatering in sludge treatment plants.
5. Oily Wastewater Treatment: Enhances sedimentation rate and improves effluent quality.

Usage Guidelines:

• Optimal dosing depends on water quality; jar test recommended.
• Usually added before sedimentation or filtration processes.
• Can be used in combination with other coagulants or flocculants for improved performance.

Advantages over Traditional Coagulants:

• Faster floc formation and settling rate.
• Lower residual aluminum and iron in treated water.
• Reduced chemical consumption.
• Stronger resistance to temperature and pH fluctuations.
