Polymers are effective in many filtration processes, including:
- Plate and Frame Presses
- Belt Filter Presses
- Vacuum Filtration
- Centrifuges
- Screw Filter Presses
- Geotextile Tubes
- Beach Dewatering
- Other
SNF offers a wide range of polymers to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of filtration processes. These polymers improve filtration by promoting the formation of larger and more permeable flocs, reducing filter cake resistance, and improving the retention and removal of solid particles from liquids, leading to improved filtration rates and cake quality.
Polymers optimize the clarity of filtrate by promoting the formation of larger and more easily filtered flocs. This is beneficial for water reclaim purposes or discharge, as it reduces the presence of suspended solids and improves water quality.
By helping reduce the water content of filtered cake and enhancing the dryness and solids concentration, polymers play a vital role in maximizing the dewatering efficiency of the filtration process.
