Sunfloc Anionic Polyelectrolyte for Power and Chemical Plants in Thoothukudi
In one of Tamil Nadu's drier districts, clarifying more water lets power and chemical plants reuse it. Anionic polyacrylamide (PAM) speeds the clarifier.
Water is precious here
Few parts of Tamil Nadu are drier than this one. Industry takes water from the Tamirabarani and, more and more, from desalinated and recycled supplies, so the better a plant clarifies, the more of it can be used again.

Power stations and chemical plants
Raw water for cooling and boiler make-up is clarified with a coagulant and an anionic polymer such as Anionic HQ. Anionic grades also help coal-handling run-off and ash-pond water settle sooner. Plants near the harbour run physico-chemical treatment for inorganic effluent, where an anionic grade settles the precipitate before the sludge is pressed.
Take 15,000 m³ a day at 0.5 mg/L: that is 7.5 kg of polymer daily, and at 0.1% about 7,500 litres of solution. Your own dose comes from a jar test.
Salt and high dissolved solids
Coastal water and salt-works run-off carry high dissolved salts, and very salty water can reduce the effectiveness of some polymers. Settle the grade and dose on your own water by jar test. Road freight from Chennai usually takes about two days, and the Tamil Nadu Pollution Control Board regulates units.
A worked example for a power-plant clarifier
Take a power-plant clarifier: 2,000 m³ a day at 0.25 mg/L is 0.5 kg of Sunfloc Anionic a day, about 15 kg a month. Made up at 0.1%, that is 500 litres of solution a day. These figures are illustrative; a jar test on your own effluent sets the real dose.
Where water is scarce, a clearer overflow lets more of it be reused, so track overflow turbidity as the dose is trimmed.
Anionic Sunfloc questions from Thoothukudi
Does high salt change the dose?
It can. Confirm on your own water.
Can ash-pond water be treated?
Yes. Anionic grades settle ash-pond overflow faster.
How long is delivery?
About two days by road.
