Efficient applications of polyacrylamide: from water treatment to enhanced oil recovery

In many industrial processes, polyacrylamide (PAM) has shown extremely high application value. Its good solubility and flexibility of use make it an indispensable and efficient flocculant in various industries.

Applications in the field of water treatment

In sewage treatment plants, drinking water treatment and industrial wastewater treatment, PAM can effectively improve water quality by improving the separation efficiency of liquid and solid phases and significantly reducing the content of suspended solids and organic matter. For example, after using PAM in a large sewage treatment plant, water quality COD was reduced by 30%.

Applications in Petroleum Extraction

In oil extraction, PAM is used to improve crude oil recovery by increasing the viscosity of the water phase, reducing the miscibility of water and oil, and improving oil recovery efficiency. Data shows that after applying PAM in a certain oil field, the recovery rate increased by 20%.

Other application areas

PAM is also widely used in fields such as papermaking and textiles to reduce operating costs by improving process efficiency. For example, in the papermaking industry, PAM can improve the dewatering performance of pulp and enhance the strength of paper.

Summarize

Whether in water treatment, oil extraction or other industrial fields, PAM has demonstrated its excellent performance and wide application prospects.
