Oily Wastewater Transformed with WETT-O

Terragon Environmental Technologies has been developing the Wastewater Electrochemical Treatment Technology for oily water, or simply WETT-O, for the past six years. WETT-O uses an electrochemical process to transform oily wastewater into reusable or dischargeable water depending on the application. WETT-O uses electrochemistry and does not require filters, membranes, chemicals or biological treatment commonly found in alternative approaches. Terragon’s proprietary Electrocoagulation (EC) cartridge employs sacrificial anodes and electricity which release ions that act as coagulants.
