At present, there is no unified concept of flocculant. A relatively accurate view is that all substances used to produce flocculent precipitation of solute, colloid or suspended particles in aqueous solution are called flocculants.

If a flocculant contains two or more substances to flocculate, the flocculant is called compound flocculant....>
