| Recycling Systems |
|
This section contains the RGF line of wash water recycling equipment. RGF utilizes 40 technologies to develop industry specific water recycling systems. RGF is the recognized industry leader with thousands of systems installs worldwide.
Industrial water recycling has been one of the main mission of RGF since its inception in 1985. Water recycling is an industrial priority for the following reasons: |
| |
| Cost |
RGF recycle system will remove contaminants while leaving in the dissolved cleaning agent, thereby not only are you saving water, but also saving cleaning detergents. By recycling wash water and cleaning agents, studies have shown saving at typical trucking firms over
discharging to sewer. |
| |
|
| Compliance |
By recycling, you will avoid possible fines, regulatory litigation, negative publicity and civil litigation. |
| |
|
| Positive Image |
Companies that are environmentally conscious are viewed upon by employees and customers as forward thinking, positive performers and professionals who carry an image that advertising cannot buy. |
| |
|
| Regulations |
By recycling, you avoid regulatory monitoring of your waste stream, thereby reducing visits to your site by regulatory auditors. |
| |
|
| Moral |
By recycling, you will be saving hundreds of thousands of gallons of water, our most precious resource, which we are grossly mismanaging. |
|
| |
| Fresh Water Available vs. Population Growth |
| |
 |
| |
Recycling can no longer be viewed as a necessary evil. It
should be viewed as a variable cost reduction program and
positive public relations vehicle. |

| BIOLOGICAL TREATMENT SYSTEMS |
| There are two basic biological treatment processes: aerobic (with oxygen) and anaerobic (without oxygen). |
| Aerobic Treatment is the process by which microorganisms use the waste’s organic component with oxygen, which produces cell growth and end products of carbon dioxide and water. The most popular is the activated sludge process which is commonly used for domestic and industrial wastewater. This process provides a high quality effluent and is capable of reducing B.O.D by 95%. The bacterial process oxidizes the soluble and suspended organic to carbon dioxide and water in the presence of oxygen. The organic material is converted into new cells or used to support growth of existing cells. The excess of cells is sludge. |
| Anaerobic Treatment is the process where microorganisms convert organic compounds to methane, carbon dioxide, cellular materials, and other organic compounds. The anaerobic process convert organic wastes to methane and carbon dioxide in the absence of oxygen. Anaerobic treatment has the ability to perform the following decompositions: |
| |
 |
Hydrolysis : |
A breakdown of suspended organic solids into soluble organic compounds. |
|
Acetogenesis : |
First step in anaerobic decomposition where propionic acid is reduced to acetic acid. |
|
Methanogenesis : |
Second step in anaerobic decomposition where acetic acid is further reduced to methane and carbon dioxide. |
|
| There are five(5) processes required in a complete industrial bio system: |
|
Pre-Screening : |
To remove solids from the waste stream. |
|
Anaerobic Treatment : |
Or a breakdown to a septic condition. Partial breakdown to methane, carbon dioxide, cellular material and organic compounds. |
|
Aerobic Treatment : |
A reduction of 95% B.O.D. A complete breakdown to carbon dioxide and water. |
|
Clarifier : |
Removal of active bacteria and other suspended solids. |
|
Effluent Disinfection : |
Oxidation of pathogenic bacteria and viruses. |

| Oil Water Separators |
| |
 |
| |
|
This section covers coalescing oil/water separation. The concept of a basic gravity oil/water separator is simply a tank vessel that stalls the flow rate to permit gravity to separate oil from water. Oil, having a lower specific gravity than water, will naturally float on water if given time to separate. RGF’s Oil Water Separators are designed to process wastewater containing free oils. The patented systems utilize over five technologies to remove and store the free oils before discharge for reclaim or sanitary sewer. |

Evaporation Systems
RGF Thermo Oxidizer
Wastewater Advantages |
| |
| The Thermo Oxidizer System completely oxidizes water borne waste streams, leaving only a dry powder as the residual waste material. Unlike evaporators, the Thermo Oxidizer completely eleminates the water content of the liquid waste. The unit eliminates the typical evaporator problems of corrosion, foaming, residual slurry, V.O.C. emissions, and difficult to clean evaporator chambers. |
| |
| THE CONCEPT |
| |
| The RGF Thermo Oxidizer is a designed to completely oxidize liquid waste, leaving only a dry ash residue. By automatically controlling the fuel modulation and the waste flow, maximum efficiency is achieved resulting in a fuel cost as low as $0. 10 per gallon. RGF utilizes a cast ceramic refractory for all interior combustion surfaces to eliminate corrosion and metal failure. By utilizing an optional waste oil burner, the system can eliminate both waste oil and wastewater. |
| |
The Thermo Oxidizer was designed by RGF to completely oxidize liquid waste, leaving only ash to dispose. The unit meets NFPA Fire Safety Code requirements.
Unlike a stainless steel evaporator, the Thermo Oxidizer is not subject to chloride stress crack corrosion. It is easily cleaned and requires little maintenance. The biggest difference is the total removel of water content by the Thermo Oxidizer. The wastewater does not accumulate, making it impossible for the wastewater to concentrate. This is an operational asset in that the emissions are not permitted to worsen with time, as they are with an evaporator.
Typical temperature setting range from 800 to 1,400F. Incinerators operate between 1,800 and 3,000F. The Thermo Oxidizer works to thermally decompose chemicals within the wastes to their primary combustion products of Co2, H2O and simple compounds. At temperatures of 700C, Most Chemicals are boken down into smaller molecular weight constituents, and at temperatures of 1000C, the majority of wastes are reduced to ash.
Types of waste streams applicable for treatment by the Thermo Oxidizer are : |
| |
| Petroleum Hydrocarbon Waste |
RO,NF,UF Concentrators |
Floor Scrubber Waste |
| Die Casting |
Tumbling Solutions |
Plating Solutions |

| Floc Systems |
| |
| Contaminants in wastewater often cause the water to appear turbid or colored. These impurities include a suspended and colloidal materials and soluble substances. Because the density of many of these particles is only slightly greater than water, agglomeration of particles into a large floc is necessary in order for them to be removed by sedimentation and filtration. The clarified water then can be either discharged or reused and the settled floc can be collected, dewatered and disposed of as solid waste. |

RGF ESP Floc Series
Wastewater Encapsulation Treatments Systems |
| |
 |
RGF’s line of advanced encapsulation treatment systems are fully automatic and capable of treating waste streams contaminated with emulsified oils, solids, heavy metals, ink and paint emulsions, and floor scrubber wastewater. The treated water will usually meet sewer discharge requirements or may be reused for cleaning. The resulting dried sludge from the treatment process normally will pass the TCLP test, which will allow disposal at a non-hazardous landfill. RGF offers a complete line of flocculants modeled to handle any waste stream.
The ESP - 100 series batch Treatment system was designed for versatility and accessibility. It has Post Treatment System intended for applications that require process water disinfection prior to discharge or for re-used of the treated water. The ESP - 100 process up to 200 gallons per hour. |
