PG-M

The success of inviting new type of flocculent agent

PG-M|image

PG-M is a flocculant of magnetic body while its main ingredeient is poluglutamic acid. Differing from conventional flocculants, magnetic substances are added to flocculants so that the flocs,can be collectd by gravitation of magnetic power.

Exterior
Gray powder
Characteristics
Can gravitate and collect flocs with magnetic power
Safety has been confirmed by several examinations ate the institutions recognized by environmental ministry
It can be used in both sweet and salty water
Its preservation, transportation and handling is easy since it is in powder form
  • ※Containing substance with hydrophobic nature, therefore it needs to be stirred completely.
  • ※Because mineral composition was added, the coherence was increased, but there are still some coagulator left.

PG-M can be used in a wide range of PH and it hardly causes any changes to PH.
Danger of ingredients High Low PG-M is made from natural ingredlent ‘polyglutamic acid’.
PAC and acrylamide monomer may cause Alzheimer disease and nerve toxin respectively.
(*Safety has been confirmed by Ames,dosage and acute toxicity tests.)
Industry
waste water
Facility Structure Complex Easy A small scale and simple structure is enough as flocculation, setting and separation can be conducted in the same tank by using PG-M.
Moreover, maintenance is also quite easy.
Scale Large Small
Maintenance Complex Easy
Heavy metal Removal Impossible Possible PG-M can remove iron,hexavalent chrome and arsenic.
Proportion of Water in floc High Low PG-M has good dewaterability.
Natural River,
pond swamp
Environmental burden High Low PG-M causes little change in PH and minimum affect on livings in water.
Affect on livings in water High Low
