Polyacrylamide also serves this purpose in breweries!

2026-01-28
Beer is a commonly consumed alcoholic beverage in our daily lives. However, the wastewater generated by breweries daily contributes to environmental pollution. A defining characteristic of brewery wastewater is its large volume and high concentration of organic matter. Key features of brewery wastewater include: high alkalinity, elevated temperature, high organic matter concentration, and significant challenges in biological treatment. The primary sources of brewery wastewater include: malting process wash water, steeping water, germination cooling spray water, malt trough water, cleaning water, filtration wash water, broken bottle beer, cooling water, finished product workshop wash water, and some domestic sewage. Flocculant-Polyacrylamide Due to the relatively high organic matter concentration in brewery wastewater, treatment presents certain challenges. When treating sewage, breweries may find that using polyaluminum chloride alone yields unsatisfactory results. Combining it with polyacrylamide effectively resolves this issue. During wastewater treatment, breweries typically select cationic polyacrylamide as the sludge dewatering agent. Beer brewing wastewater not only contains high organic matter concentrations but also operates at temperatures higher than typical sewage. Cationic polyacrylamide effectively flocculates particles in brewery wastewater through adsorption, achieving separation. When using the aerobic activated sludge process alone, the volumetric load is relatively high. During operation, it generates large amounts of sludge with poor settling properties that are difficult to dewater, increasing energy consumption and treatment costs. In contrast, anaerobic treatment units and various structural forms of treatment units operate at relatively lower volumetric loads. The resulting sludge is easier to dewater, delivering not only superior treatment results but also relatively lower operational costs.
