For the treatment of highly negatively charged particle suspensions, cationic flocculants are more efficient. A new route to guar gum derivatives bearing cationic groups has been developed. A series of cationic guar gums (Cat GG) have been developed by incorporating a cationic moiety N- (3- Chloro-2- hydroxypropyl) trimethyl ammonium chloride (CHPTAC) onto the backbone of guar gum in presence of NaOH. The various grades of cationic guar gum have been characterized by elemental analysis, FTIR spectroscopy and intrinsic viscosity measurement. The flocculation characteristics of these cationic guar gums have been evaluated in silica suspension by jar test. It has been found that among the various grades of cationic guar gums, the one with longer CHPTAC chains shows better performance. The flocculation characteristics of this best performing cationic guar are compared with those of various commercially available flocculants in silica suspension. Their rheological investigations have also been undertaken.

Recycling of municipal wastewater, industrial and mineral processing effluents require treatment with the inorganic or organic flocculants. Both synthetic and natural polymers are used as flocculants. Natural polymers are biodegradable and are effective at very large dosages but are very shear stable. The synthetic polymers are highly effective flocculants at very small dosages and have high tailorability, but have poor shear stability. In the authors' laboratory, a novel polymeric flocculant has been developed by grafting polyacrylamide onto the backbone of carboxymethyl tamarind (CMT-g-PAM). Various grades were developed to optimize the best flocculant. The grafted polymers were characterized by various characterization techniques such as intrinsic viscosity measurement, FTIR spectroscopy, 13C-NMR spectroscopy, elemental analysis etc. The flocculation studies were carried out using turbidity test as well as settling test. The optimized CMT-g-PAM was then compared with some of the commercial flocculants available in national and international markets in colloidal suspensions and it has been found that our synthesized flocculant surpasses most of the commercial flocculants in performance.
