FILTERPAK Extracting
oil and steel from used oil filters can be extremely profitable
if you can do it in a safe, clean, environmentally friendly
and cost effective manner.
The EKO FILTERPAK is the answer.
With a capacity to process tens of thousands of filters a day,
extract 98 per cent of the oil and produce a dense, dry briquette
which is ideal feed stock for steel mills, the EKO FILTERPAK
literally turns a disposal cost into a bottom-line profit center.
The
EKO FILTERPAKs patented dual densification system is fully
automated with self diagnostic programming, touch screen operational
controls and a modem for direct technical support, trouble shooting
and reprogramming from EKOs service department.
A single operator can run the entire system from start to finish,
in a completely safe and clean environment.
Utilizing
the EKO FILTERPAK loading system, the operator places the oil
filter collection container onto the loading platform and secures
it in place.
The hydraulic controls for the first and second stage loading
mechanisms are located to the side giving the operator a safe
and clear view of the process.
The operator then sorts through the used filters removing any
foreign material which could damage the compaction system.
The sorting bin is then hydraulically raised and the used filters
are gravity fed into the EKO Filterpak hopper.
The
EKO patented dual densifying system compacts the oil filters
while allowing the oil to migrate to the recycling system.
The first stage compresses the filters at 4,500 lbs. per square
inch, extracting the majority of the contaminating oil.
Using
Using pressure of 12,000 p.s.i. the second stage then extracts
the remaining oil while shaping the steel into the dry EKO briquette.
The entire process occurs inside a completely closed system,
thus eliminating any adverse environmental impact.
The extracted oil is screened for impurities and collected in
a reservoir beneath the sorting platform prior to
being pumped into a holding tank.
Although
the process is totally automated, the operator can monitor and
adjust the critical aspects of the operation, if required, to
ensure the production of a dense, dry briquette with 98 per
cent of the oil extracted.
The touch screen gives the operator a visual picture of the
location of each stage in the compression cycle. It allows the
operator to intervene, to move the stages, to open or close
the gate, to change program parameters and to obtain diagnostic
information.
The
EKO FILTERPAK, with an operating capacity of 10 to 13 55 gallon
drums per hour, meets the needs of industry for safe, reliable,
efficient extraction of oil from used oil filters, and the recovery
of both the metal and oil for recycling.
