Fog Removal

SmartFlow Technologies has provided systems to remove FOG from customer's products.

When applied to waste or process streams, FOG removal can provide a number of benefits.

COD/BOD reduction Suspended solids removal
Eliminate fees for waste stream composition Generate water for reuse

By selecting the right membrane to incorporate into the ConSep® modules, SmartFlow can develop FOG removal performance to match your process needs. By combining a NF/RO system with the the permeate from the system, SmartFlow can generate high quality water for reuse within your process or alternative uses within your plant operations.

An example of FOG removal with ConSep® filters at the lab level is shown below. The picture demonstrates the capability of the ConSep® platform rather than a particular customer application. The ConSep® platform is linearly scalable, so these and similar dewatering processes can be scaled to any production volume.
