DamClear Floc Bloc AN1 3kg Flocculant Blocks

The DamClear range offers a simple, convenient method for clarifying water. Floc Blocs are a quick and easy solution to applying flocculant polymers to water requiring clarification. Floc Bloc AN1 consist of fine granules of powder grade flocculant dispersed in a solid, but readily water-soluble polymer. Typical uses include sediment retention basins, environmentally sensitive SRB's and irrigation dams. The carrier polymer is non-toxic. As water flows over the Bloc, the flocculant is released, reacting with sediment, causing solids to settle, leaving clear treated water.

Application and Benefits:

Flocculant Blocks are supplied as either rectangular bricks (210x170x80mm) or cylindrical blocks (170mmØ x 150mm). Each type weighs 3kg and will treat approx 300,000 litres of water. The most common methods for applying Flocculant Blocks are to place blocks at the entry point to the dam, at a point of turbulance that will ensure contact with most of the water flow. A point of turbulance may have to be created if one does not exist. Blocks should be secured in a wire mesh cage. Alternatively, water in a dam may be recirculated using a pump. The return water is pumped into a tank (~1,000L) in which the blocks are secured in a cage. Treated water continuously overflows from the tank back into the dam.
