Floc point, or flocculation point, refers to the temperature at which a colloidal suspension begins to form aggregates or flocs due to the destabilization of the suspension. This process often occurs in various industrial and environmental applications, such as wastewater treatment and the production of emulsions. The floc point is influenced by factors like pH, ionic strength, and the presence of flocculating agents. Understanding the floc point is important for optimizing processes that rely on the separation of solid particles from liquids.

What is the floc or pour point of refrigeration oils?
Floc point, also known as Freon floc point, is used to measure the performance and consistency of refrigeration oils. In order for the refrigeration system to function properly, the oil used should be compatible. Wax can separate when an oil solution is cooled with Freon. Once the wax is separated it is called flocculation and that is the reason it is called floc point.
What is floc in refrigeration oils?
Floc in refrigeration oil is wax that has separated out from oil containing parathene.
Is floc dangerous if consumed?
No, floc is not dangerous if consumed in small amounts. It is commonly used in water purification processes and is generally considered safe. However, ingesting large amounts of floc could potentially cause stomach discomfort.
Your pool does not have a to waste pump function. How do you get rid of the floc stuff on the bottom of your pool?
(Note : "floc" is the flakes that come out of colloidal suspension of pool chemicals.) You need to vacuum the floc from the bottom. However if you can't set your pool to waste, you can disconnect the pump hose from the pool and run it normally.
What is flocs?
Floc is the precipitant when s solute comes out of solution
The pressence of Pin floc and a rapidly setting sludge are indicators of what in waste water?
The organism such as protozoan and rotifers.
What are floc agents for swimming pools?
A floc agent is a chemical used for floccing a pool. Flocculation is the process of clumping up the solids in the pool water and any chemical in solution. The 'floc' will eventually sink to the bottom so that it can be vaccumed to waste. Commonly used in new pool start up procedures after pool is initially filled with water
What is floc particles?
Floc particles are formed during the process of flocculation, where suspended solids in water come together to create larger, heavier particles. These particles can then settle out of the water more easily, aiding in the clarification and purification of the water.
What can be done to get rid of green algae in a pool that has balanced pH and alkalinity and has been repeatedly shocked?
I've actually answered my own question. For anyone who is curious, we used pool floc to treat the problem. Our pool is in an area with a lot of trees, and our problem wasn't algae at all (contrary to what numerous pool "professionals" told us). The greenness of our pool was caused by tree debris that was so fine it went right through the filter. We added floc, which causes all the debris to clump together and sink. Then we vacuumed to waste and our pool was perfect. The whole floc/vacuum process took 24 hours.
What are floceulants?
clumps of bacteria come together and impurities come together to form a cluster called as floc and the chemicals that are used for this purpose are called floceulants.
Does activated sludge form a lacy network of floc mass that entraps many materials not used as food?
Yes, activated sludge forms a lacy network of floc mass that can entrap various materials, including not only food sources but also non-biodegradable substances and inert particles present in the wastewater. This entrapment allows for the removal and treatment of these materials during the sludge treatment process.
What is floculation?
Floculation is the combining of very small pieces into bigger pieces. It's a chemistry term for colloids in solution. The colloids come out of suspension in the form of floc or flakes.
