Novus CE2688E

Summary

Product Identification

• Product Name: Novus CE2688E
• Product Type: Liquid emulsion polymer

Description and Use

Novus CE2688E is a liquid, very high charge density, high molecular weight cationic emulsion polymer used in solid/liquid separation and sludge dewatering applications. It is designed to function within a SUEZ treatment program and is an effective dewatering agent for biological waste sludges.

Typical Applications

Novus CE2688E is effective in:

• Sludge dewatering operations, resulting in higher solids capture, drier cake, and cleaner effluent.
• Wastewater clarification and thickening systems as a settling aid, producing higher quality effluents.

It is particularly suited for secondary solids settling, thickening, and sludge dewatering in the organic chemical, oil refining, steel, aluminium, food, and paper industries.

Treatment and Feeding Requirements

• Initial Agitation: Thoroughly agitate with a drum mixer or recirculating pump for 30 to 60 minutes before initial use.
• Daily Agitation: Remix daily for several minutes; bulk system agitators or recirculation pumps should operate for 30 to 60 minutes daily.
• Water Contamination: Avoid water contamination from condensation or droplets in open containers.

Solution Preparation

• Stock Solutions: Prepared using a continuous emulsion makedown unit or a batch system.
  • Fill the solution preparation tank 1/3 full of water, ensuring the agitator blade is covered.
  • Begin agitation and slowly add the premixed polymer.
  • Fill to achieve a 0.5% solution.
  • Mix for an additional 10 to 20 minutes at low speed (350 rpm) to complete activity development. Avoid high-speed agitation.
• Application Dilution: Transfer stock solution to a holding tank and further dilute to 0.2% before the point of application. Continuous feed is recommended.

Pumping and Materials

• Pumps: Neat Novus CE2688E can be handled with gear or diaphragm pumps suitable for viscosities up to approximately 2500 cps.
• Materials of Construction:
  • Satisfactory: Type 304 stainless steel, polyethylene, and rigid PVC for tanks, tubing, piping, and pumps.
  • Pump/Hose Components: Viton and fluorosilicon type rubbers.
  • Short Term Use: Flexible PVC tubing (e.g., Tygon), Buna-N, and Neoprene rubber.
  • Caution: Mild steel and copper alloys may cause discoloration.
• Bulk Storage: Should include a desiccant and agitator or recirculation system.

General Properties

Physical properties are shown on the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS).

Packaging Information

Available in various customized containers and delivery methods. Contact your SUEZ representative for details.

Storage and Handling

• Storage Temperature: Store at moderate temperatures (4-32 °C).
• Protection: Protect from freezing and rapid or repeated temperature changes that may cause condensation.
• Shelf Life: Use within six months for maximum activity.
• Spill Handling: Spilled polymer is very slippery. Cover spills with inert absorbent material, sweep up, place in a waste disposal container, and then flush the area with water. Use sand or grit in wet areas for traction.

Safety Precautions

Refer to the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for detailed information.
