Condensate technology for compressed air treatment
Because the humidity of the ambient air is contained in the intake air, condensate always accumulates during compressing the compressed air in the compressor. The contamination already contained in the ambient air, such as dust and dirt particles or aerosols, are then located in the condensate in highly concentrated form. Condensate continues to also accumulate again in the additional compressed air treatment (filtration and drying) procedure. The condensate technology enables this polluted and environmentally harmful waste product to be discharged and treated, as it must not be initiated into the sewer system.
Condensate drain BEKOMAT
Condensate is generated at almost all stations in the compressed air system, from the compressing stage through to treatment by filtration or drying. BEKOMAT helps you remove condensate from your compressed air and achieve the optimum quality for your application . In doing so, the energy expenditures and thereby the costs are kept as low as possible. Renowned compressor manufacturers from all over the world rely on the intelligent technology from BEKOMAT.
ÖWAMAT, QWIK-PURE & BEKOSPLIT – clean, compliant, cost-saving
Condensate processing follows condensate discharge – and is subject to strict legal requirements. With ÖWAMAT and QWIK-PURE oil-water separators as well as BEKOSPLIT reaction separation systems, you can treat condensate directly on site: environmentally friendly, cost-effective and legally compliant. ÖWAMAT is ideal for stable conditions; QWIK-PURE offers a modular design for flexible, demanding applications. Compared to external disposal, in-house condensate treatment saves up to 90% in costs – and pays off quickly.
Reliable oil-water separation at the point of origin.
The ÖWAMAT is a robust oil-water separator designed for decentralized treatment of oil-contaminated condensate from compressed air systems. Using proven special filter media, it ensures safe separation in accordance with environmental regulations (e.g., Annex 49 of the German Water Resources Act). The system enables direct, on-site treatment without external collection tanks or costly disposal logistics.
Modular condensate treatment for demanding applications.
QWIK-PURE is a modular oil-water separation system built for reliable treatment of larger and variable amounts of condensate. It uses a multi-stage filtration approach to ensure effective separation even under changing load conditions. The compact design, easy maintenance, and visual filter change indicator make it a dependable solution for central condensate management.
Advanced emulsion splitting for emulsified condensates.
BEKOSPLIT systems are designed for the treatment of stable emulsions and strongly contaminated condensates, as often produced in screw compressors or when using synthetic oils. The splitting process is purely physical and chemical-free – based on sedimentation and adsorption using mineral-based splitting agents. The result: environmentally compliant wastewater that can be discharged directly, and a system that meets even the highest industrial demands.
