PolyFloc CE1169

Summary

Product identification

• Product name: PolyFloc CE1169
• Product type: Cationic, high molecular weight flocculant

Description and use

PolyFloc CE1169 is a cationic, polymeric, high charge density, high molecular weight flocculant. It is designed for industrial treatment programs as a coagulant aid or flocculant in clarification, emulsion breaking, and sludge dewatering processes.

Key features include:

• Cost-effective liquid formulation
• Effective emulsion breaker
• Aids in dewatering sludges, particularly biological and oily solids
• Suitable for a variety of wastewater applications
• Certified by NSF International to NSF/ANSI Standard 60

The product produces a fast-settling floc, reduces carryover, and mitigates bulking problems in secondary clarifiers. It offers excellent coagulation/flocculation benefits for oily wastewater, especially in flotation units, due to its strong emulsion breaking properties. For sludge conditioning, it is effective for sludges with high charge demand, such as biological and oily sludges, resulting in clean filtrate, high solids capture, and drier cake.

Treatment and feeding requirements

PolyFloc CE1169 requires dissolution in water before use.

• Preparation: Add the premixed polymer slowly to the vortex of an agitated tank. Do not add water to the neat polymer. Low-speed (350 rpm) mechanical agitation is recommended until complete dissolution. Avoid high shear or excessive agitation after dissolution.
• Makedown solution concentration: Recommended initial concentration is 0.5% (range 0.3% to 1%).
• Solution stability: Diluted solutions should be used within 24 hours for maximum activity.
• Continuous systems: Continuous makedown systems are available for more reliable results.
• Further dilution: Further dilution to approximately 0.1% enhances performance in most applications. For dewatering, dilution to approximately 0.25% may be more practical.
• Feeding: Diluted product can be fed by pump, eductor, or gravity flow to a point of good mixing (not violent agitation). High-speed mixing decreases polymer activity. Positive displacement gear or piston pumps are recommended for transfer.
• Materials of construction: Liquid-side components of tanks, pumps, and piping can be stainless steel or most plastics, excluding LD polyethylene and polypropylene. Mild steel is acceptable only if corrosion product contamination is not critical. Viton and Tygon rubbers are acceptable for pump components and hose linings.

General properties

Physical properties are detailed in the Material Safety Data Sheet.

Storage and handling

• Storage temperature: Store at moderate temperatures between 45 to 95°F (7 to 35°C). Protect from freezing.
• Bulk containers: Insulate and heat trace (if necessary) bulk containers if stored outdoors.
• Neat polymer: Recirculate or mix periodically to prevent product separation. Recirculate one container volume per day.
• Spill cleanup: Spilled polymer is very slippery. Small spills can be washed down with copious amounts of water. Large spills should be contained, absorbed on inert material, and disposed of as solid waste before flushing with water.
