Achieve oil-in-water discharge levels <1 ppm even at high flow rates
MYCELX Polisher oil-in-water polishing filters provide enhanced standby protection against upset conditions and underperformance of conventional upstream treatment equipment. The MYCELX Polisher filter technology consists of a simple cartridge filtration system with a patented thin film polymer deposited on filter fibers; the polymer is surface specific for hydrocarbons.
These filters provide a higher flow capacity and smaller footprint than conventional tertiary treatment technology. They are used on many sites across the oil and gas industry for final treatment of water before discharge to offshore, nearshore, or inland bodies of water.
- Advantages
Removes free, dispersed, and emulsified oil down to <1-um droplet size - Occupies a small footprint in comparison with conventional technologies
- Treats emulsions without the use of chemicals
- Ensures no hydrocarbon sheen for overboard discharge of produced water
- Removes oil in the presence of water-soluble polymers used in chemical enhanced oil recovery (CEOR)
