Flocculants, or flocculating agents (also known as flocking agents), are chemicals that promote flocculation by causing and other suspended particles in liquids to aggregate, forming a floc. Flocculants are used in water treatment processes to improve the sedimentation or filterability of small particles. For example, a flocculant may be used in or filtration to aid removal of microscopic particles which would otherwise cause the to be (cloudy) and which would be difficult or impossible to remove by filtration alone.
Flocculation and sedimentation are widely employed in the of as well as , stormwater treatment and treatment of other industrial wastewater streams.
