WELL FLOC - T

WELL FLOC - T

Introduction
    
Water-soluble polyacrylamide is used to flocculate the suspension of sugarcane juice. Efficiency of flocculation is affected by the hydrodynamic volume of polymer, which is related to the ability of the polymer to bridge between suspended particles. The hydrodynamic volume of polyacrylamide is increased by increasing polymer molecular weight.
     WELL FLOC-T is acombination of very high molecular weight polyacrylamide, specially formulated for improving flocculation of suspended solids in sugar cane juice claification, especially for Trayless. WELL FLOC-T can increase the setting speed and reduce retention time in clarifier.
Physical Characteristice
Appearance ..... White free flowing granules
Tonicity ..... Anionic
Solubility ..... Completely in water
Molecular weight ..... Several millions
  1. Proper degree of hydrolysis ensures rapid sedimentation of larger and more compact floes with brillant supernatant juice.
  2. Increase the capacities of clarifier, and filter station
  3. Shorten retention time in the clarifier. therefore, improve in colour reduction and increase purity rise in the clarified juice by reducing sucrose loss by inversion in the clarifier
  4. A thicker cake will be obtained, and dewatering of the mud be improved, resulting in lower filter cake pol.
  5. Economize treatment cost.
Application Methods
  1. Prepare stock solution of 0.2-0.5% Concentration by adding the power slowly (or by using vibrator or edutor feeding) into a mixing tank that filled with adequate water. For complete dispersion and dissolution, allow 2 hours continuous agitation at 60-100 rpm after completion of the powder addition.
  2. Prepare final feeding solution of 0.02-0.05% concentration by diluting the stock solution to ten times in a holding tank.
  3. Feeding point should be between the flash tank and the clarifier. Feed the solution by means of proportioning pump or by gravity feeding into a juice line of localturbulence about 2 to 5 metres before the clarifier, to allow for uniform mixing of the flocculant and juice. Once flocculation has occurred, excessive turbulence should be avoided to maintain good floc size.
Dosage
Best dosage should be adjusted to give optimum flocculation in the clarifier and to give optimum mud dewatering and filter operation. Normaldisage ranges from 2 to 5 ppm based on mixed juice weight.
Storage and Handling
WELL FLOC-T is extremely hygroscopic, keep packages sealed against moisture and high humidity. Avoid excessive and prolong contact with the skin. Contaminated skin or clothing should be washed off thoroughly with water.
Packaging
WELL FLOC-T is packed in steel drum with a polythylene inner bag containing 50 and 100 kgs. net.
