METHOD

The wastewater flows through a pressure relief chamber for pretreatment in the preseparation tank where free oil parts are reliably separated out by simple gravitational separation. This process is unaffected by fluctuations in the wastewater inflow.The separated oil is discharged automatically ,and the liquid levels are monitored by a capacitive electronic system that distinguishes accurately between air, oil and emulsion. This ensures that emulsion cannot get into the oil collector, and free parts cannot enter the splitting process.

The pretreated wastewater is then pumped into theBEKOSPLIT

reaction chamber for fully automatictreatment. The reaction process uses bentonite as a splitting agent, a non-toxic natural alumina mineral which is stored in a metering unit and stirred into the wastewater in amounts precisely adapted to the particular application. The splitting agent encapsulates the oil and dirt particles. This results in easily filterable macro flocs which are then removed by a bag filter . The purified water can now be discharged into the sewerage system.
