  • Re: polymer rebound

    I believe that your problems with turbidity in the clarifier discharge are more likely to be the result of conditions in the influent or the aeration tank because the turbidity doesn't always increase when you stop the polymer feed. For example, an increase in flow rate could cause the the TSS in the clarifier discharge to increase. Do you ...

  • polymer rebound

    At times we need to use polymer to lower the TSS in the effluent of our activated sludge plant.  Sometimes when we discontinue use, the turbidity goes up, and sometimes not.  It seems that final clarifiers must normally serve as a selector for bacteria that coagulate/flocculate well, and that extended use of artificial polymer might ...
