  • What is polyacrylamide (PAM)?
  • Polyacrylamide (PAM) is one of the most widely used varieties of water-soluble polymers . Polyacrylamide (PAM) is widely used in petroleum exploration, papermaking, water treatment, textile, medicine, agriculture and other industries.
  • Does anionic polyacrylamide improve coagulation-flocculation process?
  • Aguilar, M. I. et al. Improvement of coagulation-flocculation process using anionic polyacrylamide as coagulant aid. Chemosphere 58, 47–56 (2005).
  • Does biological filtration improve polyacrylamide biodegradation?
  • Freedman, D. E. et al. Biologically active filtration for fracturing flowback and produced water treatment. J. Water Process Eng. 18, 29–40 (2017). Dai, X. et al. Waste-activated sludge fermentation for polyacrylamide biodegradation improved by anaerobic hydrolysis and key microorganisms involved in biological polyacrylamide removal.
  • What is Pam used for in water treatment?
  • PAM is also widely used as a flocculant in drinking water treatment (at concentrations <1 mg/L). 37 PAM can create bridges between destabilized particles, forming micron-size aggregates with good settling properties. 38 Cationic, nonionic, and anionic PAM have all been studied for flocculation.
