Waste Water Treatment - Cetco Wastewater Treatment - Organophillic Clay Media

 

With an extremely high surface area, Cetco's Organophillic Clays, PM-100 and PM-199, have the ability to absorb up to 50% of their weight in oil and grease. This makes it an extremely cost effective media as opposed to activated carbon. These organically modified clays have a great affinity for oils and grease, and other low-soluble and high molecular weight organics.

 

PM-100

PM-100 is a chemically modified clay/anthracite filtration media that reliably removes oil,grease, and other low-soluble, high-molecular weight organics from wastewater. This mixed media is designed for through-flow systems.

  • Low soluble organics are adsorbed onto the product surface while clean water passes through.
  • Offers a highly efficient post-treatment for various industrial waste streams.It can also be used as a pre-treatment to GAC to increase its overall efficiency.It prevents surface pores from being blinded by oils,greases,and other less water-soluble organics.
  • Can extend the lifetime of GAC by as much as 500%,resulting in higher carbon sorption capacity and more effective and consistent removal of heavy metals and solvents.
  • Can be applied as PM-199 in a disposable cartridge.

Features & Benefits
 

Granular Product

  • PM-100 is a modified clay/anthracite media
  • PM-199 is 100% modified clay
  • Non reactive,non- hazardous
  • Packaged in 50# boxes or bulk super sacks


Organically Modified

  • Has a high affinity for low soluble organic molecules
  • Allows water to pass and will not be used up if organic material is not present

Cost Effective

  • Can absorb up to 50% of its weight in oil and
    other high molecular weight organics
  • Extends the life and absorbency of activated carbon by removal of larger molecular organics which tend to blind the pore structure of activated carbon

Versatile Technology

  • Removes dissolved, mechanically emulsified,and free oil from wastewater
  • Can be easily adapted in general filtration systems
  • Can be applied as a fixed-bed media or in removable cartridge filters

Consistent Results

  • Can accommodate surges in organic concentration levels caused by plant upsets
  • Unique sorption mechanism eliminates blinding and maintains flow rates
