Automatic Polymer Preparation Unit

Solids Handling, Screening & Sludge Treatment Equipment

The Automatic Polymer Preparation Unit is a system that prepares and doses polymer accurately for wastewater treatment. It automatically adjusts the dosing using smart controls and monitoring, and reduces the chemical waste. The process has three stages: wetting, dissolving, and aging. Its fully automated design means less manual work and lower operating costs. Built from durable stainless steel with a compact, skid-mounted design, it’s easy to install, maintain, and expand (if needed). Overall, it’s a reliable and cost-effective product for modern water and wastewater treatment.

1. What is an automatic polymer preparation unit?

It is a system that mixes and prepares polymer solutions automatically for use in wastewater treatment processes.

2. Why is polymer preparation important?

Proper preparation helps improve sludge treatment, making it easier to separate solids from water and improving overall efficiency.

3. Which sectors can use the automatic polymer preparation unit?

It is popular among the papermaking industry, industrial wastewater treatment, municipal wastewater treatment plants, and other industries that use flocculant solutions.

4. Can it handle different types of polymers?

Yes, it can work with both dry and liquid polymers and can be adjusted for different needs.

Working Principle

Dry or liquid polymer is conveyed to the wetting chamber, where it is rapidly and uniformly mixed with water to avoid clumping. The wet polymer is then introduced into the dissolving chamber for complete hydration. It then enters the aging/maturation chamber to reach the required concentration. Automated sensors, valves, and PLC controls maintain optimal preparation conditions. The ready solution is transferred on demand to dosing points.
