Separation, Clarification & Resource Recovery Systems

Industrial thermal-processing systems for wax clarification, oil separation, sludge conditioning, beeswax processing, reclaim, filtration support and other material-recovery workflows.

What the Equipment Must Do

Select the tank and downstream equipment around the material, operating temperature, working volume, hold time and production cadence—not the industry name alone.

Recovery mechanism

Define whether heat supports melting, settling, phase separation, filtration, draining or reclaim.

Residence time

Determine whether material is processed quickly or held for controlled separation.

Contaminants

Plan filtration, troughs, drains and cleanout around solids and residue.

Batch turnover

Select recovery performance based on incoming load frequency.

Which PRIMO System Fits This Process?

Recommended starting point: Standard PRIMO. For separation, clarification and recovery, Standard PRIMO is usually the starting point when the first task is melting or liquefying recoverable material. Thermal Conditioning is often better when controlled settling, clarification or extended heated separation is required. Rapid-Cycle fits repeated recovery loads where short turnaround and fast temperature recovery are essential.
RECOMMENDED STARTING POINT
Melting & Production Holding

Standard PRIMO

Best for melting and liquefying recoverable waxes or compatible solid feedstocks.

Recovery Speed & Production Throughput

PRIMO Rapid-Cycle

Best for repeated recovery batches where incoming loads repeatedly create a recovery demand.

Typical Thermal-Process Workflow

  1. 01

    Define what heat must accomplish in the separation process.

  2. 02

    Select the PRIMO family around melt, hold or recovery.

  3. 03

    Configure filtration, drainage, transfer and reclaim handling.

Have WaxMelters Review the Application

Send the material, starting and target temperatures, working volume, hold time, batch frequency, downstream process and available electrical service. For regulated or sanitary processes, also include required surface finish, fittings, cleaning method and facility standards.
