There is a focus on polymers for primary coagulation, their use as coagulant aids, in the recycling of filter backwash waters, and in sludge thickening. Practicalities of polymer use are discussed, with particular attention to polymer toxicity, and the presence of residual polymer in the final drinking water.
Get PriceRelative to the metal based coagulants, the use of organic polymers, as the primary coagulant or CA in water treatment procedures, is preferred because it requires lower optimum primary coagulant dose, smaller volume of sludge generation, minimal increase in the ionic load of the treated water, reduced level of residual aluminum in treated water, overall cost savings of up to 25–30% (Rout et al., 1999, Nozaic et al., 2001).
Get PriceIn order to optimize the performance efficiency and reduce the process economy of coagulation-flocculation (CF) based water treatment operations, coagulant aids (CA) are used as an auxiliary to the primary coagulant. Synthetic polyelectrolytes are widely used as CA but the use are synonymous with negative human and environmental challenges.

Get PriceCrosslinked polyelectrolytes swell in water and work as water absorbers and are known as hydrogels or superabsorbent polymers when slightly crosslinked. Superabsorbers can absorb water up to 500 times their weight and 30–60 times their own volume (Bolto and Gregory, 2007; Dobrynin and Rubinstein, 2005).

Get PriceThe main applications of organic polyelectrolytes in potable water production are in coagulation and occulation, and in the dewatering of treatment plant sludges. The water production processes are usually followed by sedimentation and ltration, although with only slightly contaminated waters the sedimentation step may be omitted.
Get PriceSynthetic polyelectrolytes are widely used in the United States because of their effectiveness as a coagulant or coagulant aid. Synthetic polyelectrolytes produce a lower volume of sludge compared with alum flocculation, and their effectiveness is not much affected by the pH level of water.

Get PriceNatural organic polyelectrolytes, such as humic and fulvic acids, were removed by adsorption onto silicate rocks. Tobermorite, zeolite, and molecular sieves 5A were used as the adsorbents. Tobermorite was more efficient by 40−50% in the removal of fulvic acids, and by 30−50% for humic acid than zeolite or molecular sieves, respectively.
