Novus CE2672

Summary

Product identification

Novus* CE2672 is a liquid, high molecular weight, cationic emulsion polymer.

Description and use

Novus CE2672 is designed for liquid/solids separation and sludge dewatering operations, particularly for industrial wastewaters and sludges. It is intended for use within a total SUEZ treatment program. The product can enhance clarified wastewater quality and reduce the environmental impact of contaminants.

In sludge dewatering, Novus CE2672 aims to improve:

• Released water clarity
• Sludge cake dryness
• Sludge processing rate

It is noted as particularly effective for paper industry wastewaters and sludges.

Treatment and feeding requirements

Preparation and agitation

• Prior to initial use, Novus CE2672 requires thorough agitation (30-60 minutes with a drum mixer or recirculating pump) to ensure homogeneity.
• Daily remixing for several minutes is recommended for bulk mixing or recirculation systems.
• Avoid water contamination in open containers.

Solution preparation

• Novus CE2672 can be prepared using a continuous emulsion makedown unit or a batch system.
• To prepare stock solutions:
  • Fill the solution preparation tank approximately one-third full of water.
  • Begin agitation and slowly add the premixed polymer.
  • Fill the tank with water to achieve a 0.5% to 1.0% solution.
  • Mix for an additional 10-20 minutes at low speed (350 rpm) until homogeneous.
  • Avoid high-speed agitation to prevent polymer degradation.
• For sludge dewatering applications, a secondary dilution to 0.1% before application is recommended.

Pumping and materials of construction

• Neat Novus CE2672 can be handled by appropriately-sized gear or diaphragm pumps suitable for viscosities up to approximately 2,500 cps.
• Satisfactory materials for tanks, tubing, piping, and pumps include:
  • Type 304 stainless steel
  • High-density polyethylene (HDPE)
  • Rigid PVC
• Pump components and hose linings can be made from Viton and Teflon.
• Flexible PVC tubing (e.g., Tygon) may be suitable for short-term installations only.
• Mild steel and copper alloys should be avoided due to potential mild corrosion.
• Stock solutions should be handled with similar materials. Positive displacement pumps (gear or piston) can be used for metering.

Storage

• Bulk tank storage requires a mixing or recirculation system, with daily mixing to maintain homogeneity.
• Install bulk tanks to prevent accidental water contamination, which can cause gelling.
• Insulate tanks to prevent condensation when ambient temperatures are cool.

Packaging information

Novus CE2672 is a liquid emulsion product. Consult your SUEZ representative for packaging and delivery options.

Storage and handling

• Store at moderate temperatures: 40 to 90°F (4 to 32°C).
• Protect from freezing and rapid or repeated temperature changes.
• Spilled polymer is very slippery. Cover spills with inert, absorbent material, sweep up, and place in a waste disposal container. Flush the area with water, and use sand or grit for traction if the wet area remains slippery.
