OPS - Electrocoagulation Wastewater Treatment System
OPS Electrocoagulation Wastewater Treatment solutions integrate advanced Electrocoagulation and Dissolved Air Flotation (DAF) processes, offering a superior wastewater treatment method tailored for diverse applications such as oily water, leachates, food and beverage wastewater, and car wash water. This innovative combination is effective against various contaminant types and waste stream compositions—ranging from oily water and food industry wastewater loaded with fats, oils, and greases, to car wash water, contaminated groundwater, landfill leachates, fracking water, and more. The electrocoagulation process operates by passing an electrical current between electrodes through the water stream, utilizing sacrificial metal plates specifically selected based on the contamination type and water properties. This approach, combined with DAF, ensures high throughput, energy efficiency, and minimal maintenance. The OPS system stands out for its cost-efficient 'off-the-shelf' integration with proprietary processes, delivering reliable performance and optimized life-cycle costs tuned to individual site conditions.
OPS wastewater treatment solutions combine Electrocoagulation and Dissolved Air Floatation (DAF) processes to deliver a high throughput, low maintenance and energy efficient wastewater treatment solution for oily water, leachates, food & beverage wastewater & car wash water.
The OPS EC – DAF combination is suitable for a wide range of contaminates and waste stream compositions including:
- Oily water
- Food industry waste water containing fats, oils and greases
- Car wash water
- Contaminated ground water
- Landfill leachate and other leachates (waste wood)
- Pre-treatment for reverse osmosis and ultrafiltration
- Fracking Water
Electrocoagulation is when a current is passed from a negative electrode to a positive through a water stream with sacrificial metal plates in between. The plate material is chosen to suit the type of contamination and the properties of the water.
- Ease of changing sacrificial plates due to the innovative cartridge system
- High velocity unit enables high throughput for the size
- Instantaneous current flip to minimise plate fouling
- OPS unit uses a downstream DAF or filter to remove coagulated particles
