Polyelectrolytes: Synthetic chemicals that help solids to clump during sewage treatment.
Natural polyelectrolytes may be of biological origin or derived from starch products and cellulose derivatives. Man-made polyelectrolytes consist of simple substances that have been made into complex substances of high molecular weight.
