CYFLOC C-573-EU Polyamine is a high-performance organic cationic coagulant widely used in industrial and municipal water treatment. As a polyamine-based coagulant, it contains a high density of positively charged functional groups that effectively neutralize negatively charged suspended particles, colloids, dissolved organic matter, and various contaminants. Compared with traditional inorganic coagulants such as aluminum sulfate and ferric chloride, CYFLOC C-573-EU Polyamine offers faster coagulation, lower sludge production, improved water clarity, and a broader operating pH range.

Its excellent performance makes it suitable for numerous industries including drinking water production, wastewater treatment, papermaking, mining, textile manufacturing, food processing, chemical production, and sludge management. The following sections explain the major applications of CYFLOC™ C-573-EU Polyamine in detail.

1. Municipal Drinking Water Treatment

One of the primary applications of CYFLOC C-573-EU Polyamine is municipal drinking water purification. Surface water sources such as rivers, lakes, and reservoirs contain suspended solids, algae, natural organic matter, clay particles, and microorganisms.

• Turbidity
• Color
• Organic contaminants
• Algae
• Fine suspended particles

As a result, filtration systems operate more efficiently, filter run times increase, and treated water achieves higher clarity while reducing chemical consumption.

2. Municipal Wastewater Treatment
