Stone cutting water contains fine abrasive particles that remain suspended indefinitely without chemical treatment — making simple gravity settling insufficient for recycling applications. Water treatment chemicals — flocculants and coagulants — cause these fine particles to aggregate and settle rapidly, producing clear water for recycling and a dense sludge cake for solid waste disposal. 

The water treatment products in this collection include flocculants for accelerating particle settling in stone slurry, pH adjustment chemicals for maintaining water chemistry within acceptable discharge or recycling ranges, and sludge treatment agents that dewater stone waste for easier disposal. All products are specified for stone fabrication slurry chemistry.
