EC-5000
is a environmentally friendly, liquid cationic flocculent
formulated for use as a primary
coagulant in the clarification of surface and waste
water, and in oil breaking / de-emulsification
processes. EC-5000 is effective a wide pH range thereby eliminating
the need for post treatment pH adjustment. EC-5000 is
chlorine resistant, effective at low application rates,
easy to apply. EC-5000 is a clear alternative to alum
and ferric-based coagulants.

PRINCIPAL APPLICATIONS:
•
Gravity Settling Operations - improves floc formation
yielding larger floc size and faster settling rates.
•
Clarifiers - all types.
•
Air Flotation - results in clearer underflows and
greater through-put.
•
Solid-liquid separation systems containing residual
chlorine.
•
Settling basins.
BENEFITS
•
Eliminates alum or ferric muds when used as a primary
coagulant.
•
Forms a low volume, compact, high solids sludge which
is both biodegradable and burnable.
•
Less blow down is required resulting in more
useable water and increased effective through-put.
TYPICAL APPLICATION RATE (Primary
coagulant)
1.0 - 10 ppm
NOTE:
For optimum efficacy, apply prior to pH adjustment.
APPLICATION
Meter into the system with the aid of
a corrosion resistant, positive displacement pump. Dilute
at a rate of 1:100 in clean water prior to feeding to the
process stream. For optimum results disperse feed
stream and create maximum turbulence beyond the application point.
