Metal Working Fluids (MWF) are used globally across many different sectors from metal pipe, tube & plate manufacture to the machining of components in aerospace & automotive industries through to the production of cans used by the food & drinks industry .
Proprietary brands of lubricants & coolants differ widely in chemical composition leading to major issues in the delivery of spent wash-water & rinse-water treatment plant.

Future-proof against emerging contaminants & regulations |
Spent coolant & lubricants are classified as oily waste requiring special disposal in most countries. For example, in the European Union, legislation in the form of the Regulation on Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals
(REACH) and the Water Framework Directive (WFD).
Our photocatalytic process has the demonstrated capability to efficiently destroy a wide spectrum of contaminants found in MWF, including those surfactants and additives such as biocides that are highly resistant to conventional water treatment methods.
Due to the advanced designs we employ, CatalySys Water Technologies work to drive down operating costs while generating little, or no waste streams

The N1200 range of advanced photocatalytic reactors can act as a complementary, water polishing, or ‘Tertiary’ treatment system to existing industrial waste water treatment plants.
In newly specified water treatment systems, the modular N1200 waste-water treatment system is best employed as a sustainable, low-energy substitute for other, more costly traditional water treatment technologies such as reverse osmosis (RO); activated carbon (GAC); ozonation; chemical treatment systems for example.
