Industrial Grade Pure Chitosan Powder for Sewage Treatment / Chitosan for Waste Water Treatment

Our company Beyond Biopharma supplies Industrial Grade Chitosan Powder for Sewage treatment purposes. It could be used as the material to clean the waste water.

Water-soluble chitosan can effectively adsorb heavy metals and organic matter, inhibit bacterial growth, and has significant filtration effects on mercury, cadmium, lead and arsenic. It can also be used as an anionic aggregating agent for agglutination of activated sludge. , dehydration, especially for wastewater treatment in food plants.

Specification of Industrial Grade Chitosan Powder

What is the Chitosan Powder?
Chitosan is a liner polysaccharide produced by extraction from shells of crab. It is off powder with a low bulk density. However, in order to make chitosan better for application in food supplements, we improve the bulk density to be around 0.6g/ml.

Chitosan is insoluble in water or alkali solution. But it is soluble in inorganic acid like diluted hydrochloric acid, nitric acid, and most organic acid.

The purity of chitosan is calculated on the deacetylation degree. The deacetylation degree is from 70% to 95% depending on the different application of chitosan.

Chitosan is widely used in many industries such as the Food, Food supplements, Medicine, Cosmetic, Sewage treatment, textile, leather and etc.
In this page, we mainly talk about the application of chitosan in Food Supplements industry for weight loss purpose.

Application of industrial grade Chitosan

Biological fertilizer: used for foliar fertilizer, fertilization, biological fertilizer, biological pesticides, etc., to improve the disease resistance of crops, increase yield, improve fruit quality and taste, such as effectively increase the sugar content of fruits.

Papermaking: Specialized types of chitosan can be used in paper sizing agents, reinforcing agents, retention aids, etc. to increase paper strength and recover lost pulp.

Feed: It is used for feed of pigs, cattle and sheep, as well as bait for fish and shrimp. It can improve the immunity of animals and effectively improve disease resistance. Due to the relatively high price of chitosan, it is generally only used in high-end feed, and the application of low-end feed is limited.

Recovery of macromolecular substances: Chitosan has a positive charge in the solution state, and it has a polymer property. Therefore, the chitosan in the dissolved state has electrical neutralization characteristics and bridging action, and can be used for flocculation of fermentation broth. To clarify and recover the active ingredients in the fermentation broth, chitosan can also be applied to other types of macromolecules.

Sewage treatment: Chitosan can treat suspended matter in sewage, adsorb certain heavy metal ions, etc., and reduce BOD and COD of sewage. Chitosan can also be applied to the treatment of surface water.

Petroleum additives: According to the polymer properties of chitosan and the positive electrochemistry of chitosan, chitosan can also be used in oil exploitation and shale gas mining.
