Industrial Fluid Treatment Applications
The industry proven MYCELX HRM (Hydrocarbon Removal Matrix)
cartridge products are designed to remove hydrocarbons ranging from
raw
BTEX to crude oil, sheen, chlorinated solvents, PCBs, POPs, TBT, and
organically bound metals from wastewater. The technology allows the
filters to permanently remove the pollutants in a single pass with
less than 1 psi of pressure drop (even when fully saturated). Saturated
MYCELX cartridges and can be safely incinerated and even used to generate
energy due to their high BTU content.
Water Filter Cartridges for Industrial Waste Water Treatment Systems
MYCELX cartridges can be applied to tank berms, waste drums, rinse
water, loading and unloading berms, process water. Specific cartridges
are offered for bilge water, machining fluids, stormwater, compressor
condensate, PCB contaminated water, and high temperature water.
E.M.R.P. Inc. offers a full line of 316 stainless steel cartridge systems
with single unit flow rates from less than 1 gpm to 780 gpm. The cartridges
are also available in bulk and are designed to fit standard 10",
20", and 30" DOE (double open end) housings.
MYCELX Industrial Waste Water Filter

All MYCELX industrial water filters are engineered to remove hydrocarbons
ranging from gasoline to oil from water in a single pass. The MYCELX
PCB filters were designed to remove low levels of all types of PCBs
(Polychlorinated Biphenyls)
down
to allowable discharge levels (typically 0.5 ppt). MYCELX instantly
solubilizes the PCB compounds and bonds them to its surface, keeping
them from releasing. MYCELX PCB filters can also remove low level
BTEX (Benzene, Toluene, Ethylbenzene, & Xylene) components.

MYCELX EB MachineKleen Cartridges
For Semi-Synthetic and Mineral Oil Based Machining Fluid Tramp Oil Removal
Mycelx EB MachineKleen Cartridges are engineered to remove tramp oils from Semi-Synthetic
and Mineral Oil(natural) machining fluids. These macining fluids typically emulsify and hide a percentage(1-10%)
of the tramp oils causing heat transfer, quality, and lubricity issues.
The Mycelx cartridge instantly removes these emulsified tramp oils,
but leaves the machining fluid package fully intact.
Technical Data
Flow rate: 1-3 gpm
Cartridge Availability: 10" standard, 10" BB Style, 20" BB Style
The filters are designed to fit standard 10" housings or standard 10" and 20" BB style housings.
- Extends Fluid Life Dramatically
- Removes all Tramp Oils
- Increases Part Quality
- Decreases Machine Downtime and Costly Waste
- Dramatically Reduces Disposal Costs
- Decreases OSHA Hazards due to Exposure of Contaminated Fluid
Larger Systems Are Available For Central Sump Units.

PermaKleen
PermaKleen has been designed for hydrocarbon removal from a wide
range of filtration applications including storm drain cisterns,
bag filtration systems and packed columns.
|  |
As pollutants come in contact with the Mycelx, they are solubilised into the
infused coating, making them hydrophobic and thickening them so they will not
re-disperse into the solution. A low ash content and potentially high oil content
makes incineration an attractive option for used material.
