OTEC Centrifuge WT-15-500-M

The newly developed OTEC Centrifuge WT-15-500-M enables a highly effective recirculation system that complements existing or newly installed mass finishing systems. By reusing treated process water multiple times, both compound and fresh water consumption can be significantly reduced. The high separation performance, driven by strong centrifugal force, results in dense sludge compaction with low residual volume, which in turn lowers disposal costs.

Applications

• Environmentally friendly recirculation system for process water treatment for the CF, DF, and SF series
• Flow rate of 1,000 l/h and sludge volume up to 10 kg

Highlights

• Lower operating costs through efficient water recirculation
  - Up to 80 % less compound consumption
  - Up to 98 % savings in fresh water
  - Sustainable reduction of mass finishing wastewater
• Abrasion from workpieces and media is removed from the process water, while unused compound stays in the process
• Ease of operation through automation of: tank emptying, supply of process water cleaner and fresh water

• No regulatory monitoring or documentation obligations for recirculation systems
