CPP150 Oil Water separator Atmospheric air contains large amounts of water vapour and dust particles. These contaminants are mixed with the hot oil during the compression process to form an acidic, abrasive outlet contaminant. Following the compression process the air is cooled causing large amounts of contaminated condensate to be formed. To conform with current legalization this contaminated condensate must be treated before disposal. Using an oil water separator, such as our CPP range, it is possible to separate and remove this contamination leaving water that can be simply discharged into the foul sewer. Our goal is to offer you a condensate treatment system that is easy to install, with minimal operating costs, in order to minimize your “compressed air waste” treatment costs. Removal of contaminants in compressed air condensate At the end of the compression process, when the air is cooled down, contaminated condensate is generated Once the condensate has been removed from the compressed air, it still needs to be cleaned in order to be in-line with local environmental legislation Oil-water separators separate both substances (water & oil), so the rinsed water can be discarded easily The limited amount oil has to be discharged in a specialised disposal center Innovative Design Concept Condensate enters through mufflers and depressurizes in the expansion chamber Tower A – White oleophilic filter Cleaner condensate enters Tower B Tower B – Active Carbon Filter Clean Condensate Benefits Separating the oil from the condensate avoids high treatment costs Local laws often prohibit draining condensate with high content of hydrocarbons The treatment of contaminated waste represents: A difficult management An important cost Local storage Maintenance of appropriate registers, where required
