- Application and Usage Information
- Predominantly used for effective solid-liquid separation in which Magnafloc 1607 is applied separately to, or in combination with, an anionic flocculant.
- Magnafloc 1607 is an effective clarification aid for gravity separation and filtration processes on various mineral and/or organic substrates.
- The correct dosage of Magnafloc1607 depends on the conditions involved in the particular process.
- Typically this is in the range of 1 – 10 ppm but it will normally be determined by test work on the substrate.
- On a plant scale, a stock solution concentration of 0.1 to 1.0 % as supplied is recommended for addition to the system.
- This is readily obtained by either batch mixing with water in a stirred tank, or alternatively by metering the concentrated product directly to the system and diluting inline.
- In the latter case, a metering pump of the positive displacement type with adequate corrosion-resistant characteristics is recommended.
- For optimum results, Magnafloc 1607 should be added to the system at a point of sufficient turbulence to ensure good initial dispersion and adequate mixing.
- This point will be prior to the clarifiers or filters and, ideally, the turbulent flow zone at the addition point should be followed by a quiescent zone with gentle flow conditions to allow coagulation to occur.
- In situations where an adequate addition point does not exist, turbulence may be induced by introducing an in-line mixer or a baffled zone etc.

Safety & Health
- Health and Safety Precautions
- Magnafloc 1727 exhibits a very low order of oral toxicity and does not pre- sent any abnormal problems in its handling or general use.
- It is nevertheless recommended that inhalation, ingestion, skin contact and eye contact be avoided.
- As with all cationic polyelectrolyte polymers this product exhibits toxicity towards fish.
- It is important that precautions are taken where the product may come into direct contact with fresh water courses, streams and rivers.
