Carew Centrifugal Technology’s innovations
clarify waste and process water by removing
suspended solids to submicron range
without chemical treatment. This technology,
when operated in the sub-micron level
operating mode, can be used in the
sterilization of air and water, as well as
removing particulate fractions. It extracts up
to 99.9% of total solids, concentrates
carbon-containing components for energy
generation and/or hydrocarbon
condensation and biofuel production.
It reduces the volume of waste to be
landfilled, saving transportation and disposal
costs. The next stage includes a high
efficiency reactor that converts bio-solids to
liquid hydrocarbons for transportation and
other applications. Efficiency is between 30-
60%, with a project rate of return in less than
2 years.
Different filter models and fuel generation
mechanisms have several patents and other
patents pending. Patent numbers: 7,122,123
and 6,761,270.
