View ProductOUR PROCESS
Every material behaves differently. Salinity, pH, solids content, additives and mixing conditions can all influence product performance. We evaluate the material, screen suitable grades and develop a practical treatment approach around the customer’s operating requirements.
Step 2
Product and Dose Testing
Suitable grades are screened to establish an initial application rate and assess absorption speed, gel strength and final material consistency.
Step 3
Application Method
We recommend how and where the selected product should be added and mixed, taking into account the customer’s tanks, bins, conveyors, excavators, dosing equipment or production process.
Step 4
Technical Documentation
Selected grades are supported by the relevant Technical Data Sheet, Safety Data Sheet and batch Certificate of Analysis. Testing outcomes and recommended application rates can also be documented for customer review.
Step 5
Supply and Ongoing Support
AuraChem is based in Melbourne, Victoria, with products stocked in Australia for supply nationwide. Packaging options include 15 kg pails, 20 kg and 25 kg bags, and 750 kg and 800 kg bulk bags. Available packaging varies depending on the product required. Further testing and technical support are available as material composition, moisture levels or operating requirements change.

Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to common questions about superabsorbent polymers, product selection, testing and supply.
What is a superabsorbent polymer?
A superabsorbent polymer, commonly referred to as SAP, absorbs and retains liquid within a gel structure. Industrial grades can be used to control free liquid in sludge, slurry and other high-moisture materials.
How do I know which product and application rate to use?
The most suitable grade and application rate depend on the liquid chemistry, moisture content, solids, additives, mixing conditions and required outcome. AuraChem can test a representative sample to provide an initial product and dose recommendation.
Will SAP work with saline or chemically complex liquids?
SAP performance can be affected by salinity, pH and dissolved chemicals. AuraChem screens suitable grades against the actual material rather than relying solely on absorption figures measured using clean water.
How is SAP applied to liquid waste?
SAP can be added to tanks, bins, skips, conveyors or other mixing processes. The appropriate addition point, mixing method and contact time depend on the material, available equipment and required treatment rate.
Does solidification change the waste classification?
Solidification improves the physical consistency and handling of a waste stream but does not automatically change its regulatory classification. Transport, disposal and receiving-facility requirements should be confirmed for the treated material.
Are AuraChem products stocked in Australia?
AuraChem is based in Melbourne, Victoria, with products stocked in Australia for supply nationwide. Packaging options include 15 kg pails, 20 kg and 25 kg bags, and 750 kg and 800 kg bulk bags. Available packaging varies depending on the product required.
