IntroductionThe Greasebuster® is an innovative device designed to address the issue of fats, oils, and grease (FOG) in wastewater discharge from process factories. Traditional grease traps are inefficient and require frequent maintenance, whereas the Greasebuster® offers a more effective solution.
FunctionalityThe device utilizes a hydrophobic belt that attracts non-polar liquids like fats, oils, and greases while rejecting water. It operates continuously, collecting FOG from the surface of wastewater
tanks and depositing it into suitable containers. For solidified fats and greases, a thermostatically controlled heater liquefies them for easier collection.
Features and Benefits- Efficient removal of FOG, preventing blockages in pipes and sewers.
- Simple installation and 24/7 operation.
- Capable of removing up to 8m3 of FOG per day.
- Operates in temperatures up to 50°C.
- Reduces wastewater bills by lowering COD and solids.
- Minimizes environmental prosecution risks.
- Removes microthrix, filamentous growth, and floating solid waste.
- Adjustable belt speed and thermostatic temperature control.
Specifications- Belt Size: Length 2m, width 0.5m or 2m/1m.
- Belt Material: Polyurethane, operational from -20 to +65°C.
- Motor: 230/400Vac IP55 with variable speed control.
