Water Cleaning

We have two types of Water Cleaning Equipment.

Electro-Chemical Emulsion Breaker and Colloid Remover (EKOB)

The EKOB can decompose aqueous waste containing organic materials produced
in various industries at the place of origin. At present no other company, in the world, can provide this technology.

The power demand of the 1m3/hour breaking capacity equipment is only 200W/hour.
This gives a significant cost saving to customers and the residual 1% volume, mainly solid waste, is usable by the cement industry as it is mainly A/(OH)3. The water can then be reused or put back safely in to the water system.

The capacity of EKOB equipment can be increased by installing further modules.

The following types of companies and others can benefit from EKOB:

Plants dealing with waste oil recycling
Producers dealing with plastic or rubber waste pyrolytic processing
Metalworking
Vehicle manufacturing companies (drilling oil to cool the tools will always be produced)
Manufacturers of products made by metal injection moulding technology (liquid
produced at the cooling the moulding tools)
Aqueous waste with organic content produced in chemical plants
Organic liquid waste of food industrial plants
Waste water with oil content from military vehicles, car washes
Emulsions created at cleaning oil tankers

Underwater Plasma Technology System (UWP)

Underwater plasma technology (UWPT) is unique in the world of oxidation technology, which allows decomposition of the organic content of waste waters, whether they are dissolved or be present in colloid form. Decomposition of the organic pollutants takes place directly inside the aqueous solution or inside the emulsion, in a termic electric plasma zone that is generated by instantaneous discharges of super capacitors created by the applied electricity on the surface of the submerging electrode/electrodes.

One of the major benefits of the technology is that in course of the purification process, the water content of the waste water does not need to be evaporated, therefore, the energy consumption of the process is much lower than that of the traditional combined distillation-incineration processes.

From an energetics point of view, compared to traditional plasma technologies, UWPT offers other benefits, as well:
The water to be treated does not need to be ionized. In case of ionizing plasma methods, during the recombination of the generated ions unwanted toxic materials, e.g. hydrogen cyanide or dioxins may be generated, that are very difficult to wash out from the exhaust gases.
In the course of the decomposition of organic materials mostly carbon dioxide, nitrogen and water are formed, while the inorganic salt content of the solution remains unchanged.
In many cases, it is enough to continue the underwater plasma treatment up to a point where the organic toxicity of the waste water is removed, hence biological waste water treatment becomes possible again.
Halogen, sulphur and phosphor containing organics can also be decomposed. During underwater plasma treatment there is no need for the addition of flocculants.

Applying underwater plasma technology, the chemical oxygen demand (COD) of waste waters can be decreased to virtually zero. Oxidation is carried out by the strongly oxidizing free radicals that are generated by the plasma. Our technology can be applied when the waste water is conductive or can be turned conductive, this condition is satisfied in almost all cases.

This equipment is used in the Paks Nuclear Plant in Hungary.
