Concerning a lot of environmental problems the separation of materials by the use of filter technologies plays a major role. For example in the field of industrial waste water, emissions can be reduced substantially by filtration of harmful particulate matters, which is a reasonable and cost saving way to meet emission limits.
Another implementation area for filtration is the process internal recycling of liquids.
For the separation of oil/water mixtures the coalescer technology provides a very efficient separation method which can very easily be combined with filtration to form so-called Filter Water Separators.
The right choice of the adequate filter/separation-know-how is essential for the ecological and economical success.
