Nantong, China - Choosing the right polyacrylamide (PAM) can be the difference between an efficient, cost-effective wastewater treatment process and a system that fails to meet regulatory standards. With so many grades and types of PAM available, how do you make the right choice? At Jiangsu Hengfeng Fine Chemical Co., Ltd., we believe in empowering our clients with the knowledge they need. This guide outlines the key factors for selecting the ideal PAM solution.

The first step is to analyze the characteristics of your wastewater. Key parameters include:

• pH Level: This is one of the most critical factors. Cationic PAM works best in neutral to acidic environments, while anionic PAM is most effective in neutral to alkaline conditions.

• Suspended Solids: What is the concentration and nature of the particles? High solids content may require a high-molecular-weight PAM, while low-solids water may need a different grade.

• Particle Charge: Conducting a jar test is the best way to determine the charge of the particles in your water, which directly informs whether you need an anionic or cationic flocculant.

Are you looking to clarify water, dewater sludge, or both?

• Water Clarification: For applications like drinking water treatment or mining wastewater, where the goal is to produce clear effluent, the focus is on achieving rapid flocculation and sedimentation.

• Sludge Dewatering: For municipal wastewater plants or industrial processes that generate large volumes of sludge, the primary goal is to efficiently separate the solids from the water, which requires a specific type of cationic polyacrylamide.

The most reliable method is to work with a chemical supplier who can conduct laboratory tests using your specific water sample. A proper lab analysis (like a jar test) can identify the most effective and efficient polyacrylamide solution, saving you significant time and money in the long run.

Our team at Jiangsu Hengfeng Fine Chemical Co., Ltd. provides comprehensive technical support to help you navigate the selection process. We are committed to finding the most effective water treatment solution for your unique needs.
