What is added to water to bring the small dirt particles together?

This substance is called flocculant.


Why does baquacil floccuant foam?

Baquacil flocculant can foam due to the presence of surfactants or other chemical agents in its formulation that lower the surface tension of water. When the flocculant is added to water, agitation or mixing can introduce air, creating bubbles that lead to foaming. Additionally, the interaction between the flocculant and impurities or organic matter in the water can further contribute to this phenomenon. Proper dosing and application techniques can help minimize foaming.


What flocculant use at brine clarification?

PolyDADMAC (poly diallyl dimethyl ammonium chloride) is commonly used as a flocculant for brine clarification. It works by attracting and binding suspended particles in the brine to form larger flocs that can be easily removed through filtration or settling. PolyDADMAC is effective for improving the clarity and quality of brine for various industrial processes.


Is there a way to destroy colloid?

Methods of destabilization: adding a salt, adding a flocculant, changing the pH etc.


If the pH level is good and the water is still cloudy what can i do?

Add a clarifier, available at you pool supply store


How do you rid your 12x36 above ground pool of the iron residue that has settled on the floor of the pool due to well water?

Try casting a flocculant let it settle for a couple of days and then vacuum the bottom layer of water to waste you will see the layer you want to remove on the bottom of the pool. check with your pool shop for a good brand of flocculant.


How is suspended sediments removed from a completely mixed tank?

What is aluminiumclorhydrate?

Aluminium chlorohydrate is a group of salts having the general formula AlnCl(3n-m)(OH)m. It is used in deodorants and antiperspirants and as a flocculant in water purification.


Can egg be used as a flocculant?

Yes, egg can be used as a flocculant due to the presence of proteins, particularly egg whites (albumin), which can help aggregate and settle suspended particles in liquids. The proteins in egg whites can interact with impurities and bind them together, facilitating their removal from solutions. This property has been explored in various applications, including water treatment and food processing. However, its use is less common compared to synthetic flocculants.


Do you add flocculant with the chlorine in the evening or in the morning after?

Flocculates can be added any time you like. And generally should not be put through the filter of the pool.When you add a floculant it is best to stop the pool altogether for a couple of days to allow the flocculate to settle along with the impurity's to the bottom of the pool. you will note a cloudy layer at the bottom of the pool when this has happened.Hand vacuum this layer carefully to waste. Do not put it through the filter. you may have to repeat the procedure until the water is entirely clear.


Can you swim with flocculant in the pool?

couldnt tell u without reading the bottle that the floc came in The idea of putting flocculant in the water is for the flocculant to attack to impurity's in the water and sink to the bottom of the pool, Ideally the water should not be disturbed while this is happening. After a couple of days of this you will note a cloudy area on the bottom of the pool. this should then be vacuumed to waste. You should not swim in a pool being treated with flocculant if you want the treatment to be totally effective. RB
