The Ecosorp oil adsorption system is
designed to remove small amounts of light liquids (according to DIN 1999), i.e. non-water-soluble
or low-water-soluble, unsaponifiable fluids with a specific gravity below 0.95 such as gasoline,
diesel and heating oils and other mineral oils from the effluent. The purified water leaving Ecosorp
can directly be discharged, as residual hydrocarbon concentrations are below 0.1 ppm. Ecosorp
is meant as the last element of a purification chain consisting of grit chamber and Ecosep
oil/water separator. A physical adsorption process on the surface of a highly oleophilic material
is largely responsible for these high removal efficiencies.
