Polyelectrolyte for Ludhiana dyeing and electroplating units
Ludhiana's hosiery dyeing houses and its bicycle, auto-part and forging industries make it Punjab's biggest source of industrial effluent.
Polyacrylamide (PAM), also known as a flocculant or polyelectrolyte, has proven highly effective in water treatment. Sunfloc is the Sun Brand PAM range, in anionic and cationic grades.
Water and industry in Ludhiana
Ludhiana relies largely on groundwater, and the Sutlej flows north of the city. The Buddha Nullah, which runs through the city, has long carried industrial and sewage pollution, prompting common effluent plants for the dyeing cluster and stricter controls on electroplating units.
