Blufloc Polyacrylamide for Chile – High-Performance Flocculant for Mining, Industrial Wastewater & Water Reuse

Trusted APAM & CPAM for Tailings Treatment, Sludge Dewatering & Clarification Across Chilean Industry

Blufloc Polyacrylamide, manufactured by Yixing Bluwat Chemicals Co., Ltd., is a high-quality, water-soluble flocculant widely used in Chile’s copper, lithium, and nitrate mining, urban wastewater treatment, and agricultural water optimization. Available in Anionic (APAM) and Cationic (CPAM) grades, Blufloc is designed for efficient separation of suspended solids, sludge volume reduction, and water recovery under arid, high-salinity, and high-altitude conditions found throughout Chile, from Antofagasta to Rancagua.

Key Applications in Chile

Mining Industry (Copper, Lithium, Nitrates)

• Tailings thickening in flotation and leaching plants

• Clarification of process water and pit dewatering

• Enhances filter press performance and saves water

• Common in CODELCO, SQM, and medium-sized operations

Municipal & Industrial Wastewater

• Sludge dewatering in municipal WWTPs (Santiago, Valparaíso)

• Effective in DAF, clarifiers, and drying beds

• Treats food, beverage, and textile effluents in coastal regions

Agricultural Irrigation & Erosion Control

• Reduces soil erosion in vineyard slopes and export farms

• Improves canal stability and water penetration in arid zones

• Safe for fruit crops, livestock, and reforestation areas

Why Blufloc Works for Chile

• High molecular weight (5–25 million) for strong floc formation

• Works well in hard water and high-salinity tailings

• Low residual monomer (≤ 0.05%), environmentally safe

• Compatible with Chilean norms for industrial discharge

• Reduces chemical costs and improves operational efficiency
