Polymer Activation And Onsite Hypochlorite Generation

Source: Cleanwater1

Polymer activation through proper hydration of the polymer particle is critical in water clarification or sludge dewatering applications. According to Jeff Rhodes, Vice President of Commercial Development for UGSI Solutions, “the key is to have a high energy zone at the moment of initial welding, when the polymer and the water come together.”

Rhodes was joined by Gunnar Thordarson, Executive Vice President and Founder of UGSI Solutions. Thordarson discussed the movement away from chlorine gas disinfection to the onsite generation of hypochlorite.
