Hybrid coagulants have recently received attention in water and wastewater treatment
technologies mainly due to their cost-efficiency and exceptional performance. As such, this …

Hybrid materials are products which are composed of two or more different types of
components in one polymeric matrix. Hybrid materials have been receiving increased …

This work presents a preparation process and flocculation performance evaluation of a
novel cationic polyacrylamide PADC synthesized by low-pressure ultraviolet (UV) initiation …

Recent advance on the application of the composite coagulant in the coagulation–
flocculation process has attracted a widespread interest. Previous research has …

Two cationic polyacrylamides, PAA and PAD, were synthesized for sludge dewatering. The
advanced instruments such as 1H NMR, FTIR, and SEM were used to characterize the two …

Synthetic cationic polyelectrolytes (CPEs) serve as coagulation and flocculation agents in
wastewater treatment due to a synergy of inherent electrostatic interactions and hydrophilic …

The adsorption of four different amine/ammonium salts of DDA (Dodecyl amine), MDA (N-
methyldodecyl amine), DMDA (N, N-dimethyldodecyl amine) and DTAC (Dodecyl trimethyl …

In this study, the ultrasonic (US)-initiated template copolymerization was employed to
synthesize a novel cationic polyacrylamide (CPAM) characterized by a microblock structure …

Cationic polyacrylamide (CPAM) has been the focus of research in environmental
