A volcanic clay with powerful adsorbent properties

Bentonite is a clay rock of volcanic origin. Composed of aluminum phyllosilicates and montmorillonite, it is highly absorbent. When dispersed in powder form in an aqueous medium, this clay mineral easily forms a stable colloidal suspension. Thanks to its high specific surface area and cationic exchange capacity, it has remarkable adsorbent properties.

How ImerPure B enhances flotation, filtration & sedimentation efficiency

Our ImerPure B solutions are capable of adsorbing microparticles and colloidal and molecular contaminants present in wastewater, industrial process water and sludge. When combined with suitable polymers, they act as effective flotation agents. ImerPure B demonstrates excellent synergy with all coagulants and flocculants, such as anionic and cationic polyacrylamides. Impurities can be separated very easily by flotation, filtration or sedimentation.

Solutions of natural mineral origin

Our ImerPure B grades are solutions made from inorganic materials free from toxic or volatile organic compounds.

Key benefits

  • Optimization of flocculation of fine particles and colloidal materials.
  • Adsorption of microparticles, colloidal materials, heavy metals and oily impurities.
  • Synergy with coagulants and flocculants, facilitating flotation, filtration or sedimentation.
  • Improved drainage and reduced sludge treatment time thanks to its unique structure.

Municipal and industrial wastewater clarification

  • ImerPure B products are suitable for use in powder or paste form in the following contexts:
  • Clarification of industrial circulation water by micro-flotation
  • Clarification of industrial wastewater by decantation
  • Treatment of wastewater from galvanic processes
  • Treatment of oil/water emulsions and oily wastewater
  • Sludge treatment

We offer solutions based on sodium bentonite and calcium bentonite.
