Product Overview
Demulsifier ECO 5 represents a breakthrough in demulsifier technology and provides exceptional separation results at lower processing temperatures. Developed to support sustainable processing and cost savings, Demulsifier ECO 5 is specially formulated to perform efficiently at 60 °C, compared to the traditional 90 °C typically used in industry. This innovative solution helps end users achieve significant energy savings and faster processing times, which is especially beneficial for low-flash treatments.
Key benefits
- Lower processing temperature: optimal performance achieved at 60 °C, reducing energy consumption and processing times.
- Cost efficiency: save on energy costs thanks to lower temperature requirements and faster separation.
- Superior performance with UCO: particularly effective with used cooking oil (UCO) and vegetable oils, widely used in renewable fuel applications under the EU Renewable Energy Directive II.
- Improved process control: minimal impact on water content even with variations in ppm concentrations.
Product features and applications
- Enhanced demulsification: performs efficiently with both centrifugation and decantation methods, delivering results within 48 hours.
- Sustainable energy consumption: significant reduction in energy and time with lower processing temperatures, meets sustainability goals for biodiesel production and other renewable fuel applications.
- Ideal for industrial use: works efficiently with traditional sludge and is adaptable for low-flash applications.

Note: At 60°C, the water content remains consistently below 1% even with variations in ppm concentrations, highlighting the efficiency and stability of Demulsifier ECO 5.
Application Guidelines
For optimal performance:
- Concentration: Use at 1000 ppm for standard processing; higher ppm can be adjusted as needed.
- Temperature: Maintain a consistent processing temperature of 60°C.
Note: Strict adherence to the recommended concentrations and temperature is essential to achieve optimal results.
