Pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) is a naturally occurring compound known for its role as a cofactor in various enzymatic processes within the body. It has garnered significant attention for its neuroprotective properties, promoting cognitive function and supporting mitochondrial health. Mitochondria are the powerhouses of cells, responsible for generating energy. As we age, mitochondrial function can decline, leading to a reduction in energy levels and cognitive performance. PQQ can help stimulate the growth of new mitochondria, enhancing the energy capacity of cells and potentially improving mental clarity.
5. Paper Industry In papermaking, PAM is used as a retention aid, improving the efficiency of fiber retention and enhancing the quality of the final product. Its ability to form effective bonding within the papermaking pulp contributes to better physical properties of the paper.
Further down the treatment line, the use of pH adjusters is necessary to maintain optimal conditions for biological treatment processes. Lime (calcium hydroxide) is often introduced to raise pH levels, while sulfuric acid can be used to lower them. Maintaining an appropriate pH is crucial for promoting the activity of microorganisms responsible for breaking down organic matter during secondary treatment.
