Cationic polyelectrolytes are polyelectrolytes with a maximum particle size of two mm and their physical form in the appearance of granulated sugar. Powder polyelectrolytes are divided into three categories as anionic, cationic and nonionic according to the charge characteristics they carry. Powdered polyelectrolytes are not used in the forms they are supplied, they are dosed into the stream from the appropriate point after their solutions are formed with water.
Cationic polyelectrolytes (flocculants) are used to completely separate the solid matter and water phase from each other during the dewatering of excess sludge (Biological or Chemical) mostly formed in domestic and industrial wastewater treatment plants by means of centrifugal decanter, belt filter press or other sludge dewatering equipment. helps them work efficiently.
