Clarity in an era of complexity.

SimplePrime is our collection of coagulants selected to pair with our flocculants and simplify water treatment, reduce emissions, and cut costs.

• Treatment is often a two-hander: coagulants prime particles for flocculants to settle out. But getting the chemistry to align is often a puzzle that wastes time and money as operators sort out which half of the equation isn’t working.
  

• SimplePrime is designed to optimize SimpleFloc, our no make-down flocculant series, ensuring the treatment process isn’t bogged down with unnecessary delays or subpar KPIs.
  

How it works: Coagulants prep the water so flocculants can do their job. But when charge, dose, or timing are off, the system slips. SimplePrime is designed to take the guesswork out of pairing—stabilizing solids, enhancing floc formation, and reducing downstream chemical load:

• PAC and ACH neutralize surface charge and destabilize particles
  

• Blended and organic options extend performance to high-solids or fast-flowing systems
• Compatible with any flocculant, but optimized for SimpleFloc performance
  

Why it matters: Coagulants are often overlooked until something breaks. Underdose them, and you get haze or sludge. Overdose them, and you waste chemistry, kill pH, or destabilize flocs. SimplePrime tightens performance and simplifies control across variable loads:

• Reduces polymer use and carryover
• Tightens sludge, lowers TSS and NTU
• Improves performance under load swings, variable pH, or short residence time
• Fewer chemical adjustments, faster troubleshooting, better ops consistency
  

The chemistry: Different water needs different tools. SimplePrime is available in three formulations, each tuned to suit your system, sludge behavior, and compliance goals:

• Inorganic (PAC / ACH): Reliable and economical; workhorse coagulants for most industrial and municipal settings
• Blended: Combines PAC or ACH with cationic polymer for lower sludge, faster settling, and better floc pairing
• Organic: DADMAC-based coagulants for sensitive systems or when minimizing metal residuals is key
  

The math: The right coagulant reduces spend across the treatment train, not just in dosing. From polymer to sludge to downtime, SimplePrime coagulants drive savings by making everything downstream more efficient:

• Lower polymer dosing downstream
• Less sludge to haul
• Fewer pH corrections or chemical conflicts
• Reduced labor and troubleshooting costs

Built to perform, not clog: Operators don’t care about specs. They care about what goes wrong. SimplePrime coagulants are designed to work under field conditions, not just bench tests. Stable, predictable, and forgiving when the system isn’t:

• Stable across temperature and pH swings
• Low residual aluminum and improved pH handling
• Consistent performance in mobile, high-load, or short-contact systems
  

The bottom line: Coagulants don’t just improve water, they unlock better treatment. SimplePrime gives operators a stable, predictable foundation that makes flocculants more effective, systems easier to run, and performance simpler to hold. It’s chemistry that does its job so the rest of the plant can do theirs.

“We saw a 90% drop in polymer and almost 20% fewer suspended solids after introducing CarboNet’s solution into our operations. That was great—but we also saw our operator efficiency go up since there was no fussing with chemical dosing. And as operator efficiency climbed, our hiring close rates climbed, too.”
