Oil & Grease Wastewater Treatment System

The Challenge of Oil & Grease Wastewater
Industrial wastewater often contains emulsified oil and grease, which conventional grease traps cannot fully remove. These contaminants can bind with biological sludge, increasing the load on downstream treatment systems, causing unpleasant odors, and resulting in effluent that fails to meet environmental standards.
Key issues:
- Emulsified oil makes standard grease traps ineffective
- Oil binds with sludge, reducing aeration efficiency
- Incomplete biodegradation causes unpleasant odors
- Effluent quality may not meet environmental standards
MBDAF® Micro-Bubble Flotation for Effective Oil Removal
ECONOWATT developed MBDAF® (Micro Bubble Dissolved Air Flotation) for treating oil and grease wastewater using ultra-fine air bubbles that lift oil, grease, and suspended solids to the water surface for efficient separation.
Efficiency
Removes oil
and grease at up to 90%+
Smart Control
Automated system with real-time Online Monitoring
Sustainability
Reduces energy use and lowers the load on downstream treatment processes
