Polyacrylamide (PAM): Used in the treatment of wastewater from glass production

2020-04-24

More and more glass is being used in the construction industry to protect from wind and light. Nowadays, glass has become an important material for people's life, production and science and technology. The glass plank road in the scenic area is particularly famous, and many tourists come for it. There are also tinted glass with metal oxides or salts added to give it different colors, such as car windshields.

With so many glass products, how much industrial wastewater does the glass factory discharge every day? The glass factory is also a key environmental monitoring enterprise, with a large amount of wastewater from glass production and complex composition, which must be treated to meet discharge standards. Polyacrylamide (PAM) is a polymer organic linear polymer, which can effectively neutralize the suspended particles in the water through the characteristics of long molecular chains through electricity when treating various types of wastewater, adsorb and condense them together, and promote the clarification and purification of sewage.

Glass factories are large water users, and a large amount of water is needed in the process of furnace cooling, waste heat steam production, and air compressor compressed air. According to its source, the wastewater of glass production enterprises is mainly divided into production outflow and domestic outflow. The external discharge includes workshop floor flushing wastewater, waste heat boiler room wastewater, laboratory wastewater, deep processing workshop wastewater, heavy oil station wastewater, etc., and the main pollutants are SS, COD, oil pollution, fluorine-containing substances and heavy metals. Among them, the wastewater pollution of the mirror production line in the deep processing workshop is serious.

The main role of polyacrylamide (PAM) in glass factory wastewater is to effectively remove fluorine and heavy metal ions from wastewater. After PAM treatment, the pollutants in the water are basically purified, the water quality can be directly reused when the water quality reaches the purification standard, and the solid waste can be directly discharged. However, the wastewater produced varies greatly for different glass products. At this time, the wastewater needs to be tested, and the appropriate polyacrylamide (PAM) model and amount need to be selected, and then the results are tested on the machine.
