    What is a flocculant?


    Flocculation is a crucial step in any water treatment system, and flocculants are essential to that process. By introducing these substances into a solution, particles are grouped together to form easily removable 'flocs'. This allows for easy extraction of harmful impurities like suspended solids, dissolved solids, organic and inorganic elements, and metals. 

    Different types of flocculants


    Water treatment has long relied on two key flocculant types: powder and emulsion, which comprise the bulk of the industry's market share. But a new player is fast emerging – water-based dispersion polymers open an exciting door for more innovative solutions.
