Summary

Product identification

  • Product Name: BetzDearborn* CP1159
  • Product Type: Medium molecular weight, low charge density, cationic polymer.
  • Function: Sludge conditioning agent or flocculant.

Description and use

BetzDearborn* CP1159 is a cationic polymer designed to improve surface or wastewater quality as part of a total SUEZ treatment program.

Typical applications

  • Sludge Dewatering: Increases efficiency, leading to higher solids capture, drier cake, and cleaner effluent. Applicable to paper industry and other industrial sludges.
  • Clarification/Thickening: Reduces floc carryover in waste and influent clarification/thickening systems, producing a clean effluent.
  • Coke Plant Pipeline Charging: Improves solids removal from charging liquor and increases settling equipment capacity.
  • Oily Wastewater Treatment: When used with SUEZ Rec-Oil* program, it improves oil, water, and suspended solids separation in refinery, automotive, and steel mill applications.
  • General Use: Beneficial for any operation requiring a fast-settling agglomerate or well-flocculated sludge.

Treatment and feeding requirements

  • Preparation: Can be prepared by adding the powder to the vortex of an agitated tank using a dry feeder or eductor. Do not add water to dry polymer.
  • Maximum Solution Concentration: 0.5% by weight.
  • Agitation: Air or low-speed (400 rpm) mechanical agitation until complete dissolution (1-2 hours).
  • Handling Precautions:
    • Avoid water temperatures exceeding 37°C.
    • Avoid high shear agitation after dilution.
    • Dilute solutions should be used within 24 hours for maximum activity.
  • Further Dilution:
    • For most applications: Dilute stock solution to approximately 0.05% by weight (10 to 1 ratio).
    • For dewatering applications: Dilution to approximately 0.25% often optimizes performance.
  • Dosage: Proper treatment levels depend on the specific installation and are determined by SUEZ control procedures.
