Neutrakon Oil absorber is an effective pre filter when dealing with oily condensates
Introducing the Neutrakon Pro Oil Separator - a new and innovative product designed for maximum efficiency and sustainability. Crafted from corrosion-resistant stainless steel V4A, this oil separator features a compact and well-thought-out design that effectively captures hydrocarbons while allowing for easy removal of solid particles in its removable sump. This product is both eco-friendly and effective, thanks to its use of cork as a highly efficient binding agent - a material already widely used in areas such as waterways, firefighting, and airports. With its natural and physical abilities, the Neutrakon Pro Oil Separator is a sustainable solution that helps protect the environment. Measuring at LxWxH: 600mm x 300mm x 400mm, it is also a space-saving option for any setting.
Why choose cork as a binder?
Cork is a natural resource with exceptional binding capabilities that make it a popular choice among environmentally conscious consumers. Its unique combination of natural and technical abilities make it a special alternative compared to other binders. Cork granulate requires no chemicals and no complex and environmentally harmful production processes, making it an eco-friendly option.
The Cork Oak
Cork oak is an important carbon sink that helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions responsible for climate change. With a lifespan of about 200 years, cork oaks in Portugal alone bind almost five million tons of CO2 annually. Cork is the bark of the cork oak and a 100% natural plant tissue. Its honeycomb-shaped cells are filled with gas and coated with suberin and lignin. A single cubic centimeter of cork contains almost 40 million cells, arranged vertically to the cork oak trunk.
Applications
Cork is used for various applications, such as fishing, sealing material in machines and equipment, bottle stoppers, bulletin boards, floor coverings, wind instrument building, orthopedic shoe insole material, yoga blocks, clothing, bags, and wallets, as well as construction and insulation.
Absorption Mechanism
Cork cells capture oil through capillary action and hold it inside. The cork granulate used in oil separators undergoes a selection and treatment process without additives, increasing its affinity for hydrocarbons. Under these conditions, cork has a strong affinity for oils and solvents, resulting in almost instant absorption. By utilizing cork's unique absorption capabilities, oil separators can capture oil and other pollutants more effectively and in an environmentally friendly manner.
Why use cork granulate as a natural binder?
Cork granulate is a 100% natural, sustainable, and renewable binder that offers numerous benefits. It is non-toxic, providing a safe and hazard-free workplace, and has unlimited durability. Unlike other binders, cork granulate requires no additives or complex production processes. It instantly absorbs oil, hydrocarbon, and chemical stains, making it ideal for spill cleanup. It has a high absorption capacity and low bulk density, reducing waste generation and making it economical. Additionally, cork granulate is hydrophobic, non-abrasive, and non-reactive, making it perfect for a wide range of applications. Its super-lightweight nature makes it easy to handle and use, increasing operator efficiency and drastically reducing the risk of accidents.
