Sunfloc Anionic Polyelectrolyte for Groundwater Iron Removal in Puducherry

Puducherry relies on groundwater that can carry iron and turbidity. Anionic polyacrylamide (PAM) after aeration and coagulation clears it before filtration.

A worked example for an iron-removal plant on groundwater

Take an iron-removal plant on groundwater: 350 m³ a day at 0.3 mg/L is 0.105 kg of Sunfloc Anionic a day, about 3.15 kg a month. Made up at 0.1%, that is 105 litres of solution a day. These figures are illustrative; a jar test on your own effluent sets the real dose.

Aerate first so the iron oxidises, then dose. Dosing before aeration wastes polymer.

Groundwater first

Most of Puducherry's water is pumped from the ground, where iron, hardness and turbidity are common. Plants that treat it for process use commonly aerate to oxidise the iron, coagulate, then add a little anionic polymer ahead of the filters.

Engineering units

Engineering units with metal-finishing lines in the Mettupalayam and Thirubuvanai estates suit anionic grades after coagulation, since the precipitated metals are inorganic.

Sizing example: 800 cubic metres a day, dosed at 0.5 mg/L, consumes 0.4 kg of polymer per day. Confirm the dose by jar test before ordering.

Close to Chennai

At roughly 150 km along the East Coast Road, Puducherry can be supplied in small top-ups that keep the polymer fresh. Units are regulated by the Puducherry Pollution Control Committee; keep polymer documents and dose records ready for inspection.

Anionic Sunfloc questions from Puducherry

Do I need to aerate first?

Aeration oxidises dissolved iron so that it can be coagulated; the polymer is dosed afterwards.

Is next-day delivery possible?

Often. Puducherry is close enough for same-day or next-day delivery.

Who regulates units?

The Puducherry Pollution Control Committee.
