Simple effective technology

Placed directly into the tank, the simple technology allows for effective oil recovery from the surface of the water using hydrophobic belt materials. This belt works continuously to lift FOG from the waste water whilst rejecting water. The FOG is then scraped from the belt and deposited into a collection vessel for recovery.

In above ground tanks the Greasebuster can be attached to the wall of the tank and in underground tanks the flotation variant allows the Greasebuster to float in the tank and FOG is removed with an integral slurry pump to a surface collection vessel.

Prevention Is cheaper than the cure

By removing FOG at source, the Greasebuster offers many benefits that can produce lower effluent bills, reduce waste and prevent prosecution.

  • Reduced COD and Suspended solids produce lower effluent bills.
  • Compliance with discharge consents reduces risk of prosecution.
  • Oil reclamation generates income.
  • Prevention of seer blockages stops downstream cleaning costs.
  • Produces a positive environmental impact.
  • Robust Technology and Control

The Greasebuster main frame is made of high chemical resistant and high temperature grade Polypropylene with stainless steel roller bearings. A programmable motor speed controller, 5.5KW invertor and 3-phase geared motor provide variable speed and both continuous and timed periodic running. The Greasebuster gathering trough also has a heater underneath to keep the FOG liquidized very beneficial in cold climates.
