Wastewater treatment is critical to protecting the environment and human health. With the rapid progress of industrialization and urbanization, sewage discharge continues to increase, and there are many types of pollutants. Effective wastewater treatment is critical to maintaining a clear aquatic environment and ecological balance. However, one problem that is often encountered is the large amount of foam produced in sewage treatment.

The generation of foam in sewage treatment mainly stems from three factors:

1. Biologically active substances: Residual organic matter, grease, protein, etc. are broken down by microorganisms to produce gas and form foam.

2. Excessive surfactant: Excessive surfactant (such as detergent, cleaner, etc.) will reduce the surface tension of the liquid, causing bubbles to form in the presence of gas.

3. High dissolved oxygen content: The abundance of oxygen in sewage can cause gas escape and foam formation.

In order to solve the foam problem generated in sewage treatment, silicone or non-silicone defoaming agents can be used according to the specific situation.

The benefits of defoaming agents in wastewater treatment include:

1. Quickly eliminate foam and improve the treatment effect.

2. Improve equipment operation, prevent pipes and equipment from being blocked by foam, reduce equipment failure rate and downtime, and ensure stable operation.

3. Expand the effective treatment area and improve efficiency.

In the future, sewage treatment antifoam have broad prospects. As industrialization and urbanization accelerate, the demand for sewage treatment will continue to rise. Defoaming agents will play a key role in this process and effectively help improve the efficiency and quality of wastewater treatment. In addition, as technology advances, defoamer research and development is expected to move towards more efficient and environmentally friendly solutions to meet changing wastewater treatment needs.
