Choose a coagulation route from the water matrix and separator
A product family is only a starting point. For high-salinity industrial wastewater, preserve the actual salt and contaminant matrix, then compare pH, coagulant, polymer, mixing and the plant's separator as separate variables. For residual color after biological treatment, first check whether filtration changes the color before choosing a dissolved-color or solids-capture route.
| Buyer decision | Use this guide | Commercial next step |
|---|---|---|
| Representative high-salinity test | Design the matrix and scale-up window | Share the water analysis, separator and endpoints. |
| Post-biological residual color | Separate dissolved color from fine solids | Share filtered/unfiltered evidence and sludge constraints. |
Compare the relevant water-treatment application context, review a filmed PAC–PAM sequence only as matrix-specific evidence, and send a representative analysis for a candidate-grade discussion.
Screen coagulants and flocculants against the real separator
A clear jar is not a complete produced-water decision. Remove bulk free oil and coarse solids where the existing equipment can do so, then reproduce representative salinity, pH, temperature, mixing, shear, residence and the intended flotation, settling or filtration endpoint.
| Feed | Equipment | Acceptance |
|---|---|---|
| Source/time, oil state, TSS, turbidity, particle context, iron, pH, salinity and temperature | Primary separator, mixing energy, residence, DAF/settler/filter and downstream shear | Water, recovered oil, sludge/float, filter response and the actual downstream specification |
Use the produced-water clarification guide and the Oilfield Water Treatment application. Review PAC and PAM as identity pages only, then request current grade documents and representative testing.
