| Water treatment system for asphalt and paving industry  OilTrap Environmental has introduced the ElectroPulse system designed for treatment of wash-water generated from washing vehicles, equipment and stormwater run-off in the asphalt industry. The EP5-WR and EP10-WR are economically priced and easy to operate. ElectroPulse can process up to 200 gallons per minute for treatment of stormwater run-off and treated water is of a quality that can be recycled, discharged to a sanitary sewer or surface-water. The ElectroPulse system uses electrocoagulation, EC, an electrolytic-based technology for treatment of contaminated water economically and on-site.The EC treatment process has proven successful in removing a variety of contaminants that are impossible or too expensive to be removed by filtration or chemical treatment systems. Among these contaminants are emulsified oil, Total Petroleum Hydrocarbon, suspended solids and heavy metals without the use of labor intensive filters or messy chemicals. Generally heavy metals are reduced to a hydroxide, allowing sludge that is separated through the ElectroPulse treatment process, to pass a Toxic Characteristic Leaching Procedure test. Packaged with on-board automation, the ElectroPulse system is fully automated, which dramatically reduces the cost and time of maintenance often associated with on-site water treatment systems. Also, there are no filters to clean or replace. OilTrap Environmental is the manufacturer of electrocoagulation water treatment systems. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Construction News :: home page |
