The JCC-HM1 is equipped with casters to enable relocation, while the JCC-HM2 is a compact stationary type.

What causes the odor of cutting oil?

1. Bacterial growth

The foul smell of cutting oil is caused by the decomposition of the fluid. The cause of decomposition is the growth of "anaerobic bacteria" that dislike oxygen. In factories where the room temperature is high, it is easy for bacteria to grow inside the tank, and especially in the summer, a strong odor of decomposition is quickly generated.

2. Oil and contaminants in the coolant

The oil and contaminants in the cutting oil (coolant) will increase steadily as the operation continues. The oil that has increased in the cutting fluid gradually rises to the liquid surface, covering the surface of the tank and blocking the air. Then anaerobic bacteria, which do not like oxygen, multiply rapidly in the tank, using the contaminants in the liquid as nutrients, and the liquid begins to decompose.

Further, in factories where the stench is severe, it can cause workers to feel nauseous and sick. The odor attached to work clothes and the body is hard to get rid of even after leaving the factory, and the odor can be transferred to the car, and the odor from your clothes and hair can bother you even after you go home. The smell of cutting fluid and factory stench will follow you everywhere.

How to prevent the odor of cutting oil

In order to prevent the growth of anaerobic bacteria that is caused by the decomposition of cutting oil, there is a means to remove the oil that has become mixed in with the liquid. However, there is a problem that the oil that has not surfaced cannot be collected, or the oil cannot be collected properly after operations.

Injecting air into the fluid can also be effective. By pumping air directly into the coolant tank with an aeration system, the number of anaerobic bacteria can be reduced and the environment in which the fluid tends to decompose can be improved. However, aeration directly into the tank runs the risk of the fluid bubbling up and overflowing, or the pumps sucking in air, causing vibration and failure. So therefore!

We propose a water treatment unit "JCC-HM" that uses microbubbles as a countermeasure against the odor of cutting oil.

First, please watch the video to see how the foul smell is removed!

“JCC-HM2” uses microbubbles to adhere to the contaminants (oil, foreign matters, etc.) in the liquid and then float to the surface, purifying the liquid.

"JCC-HM2", a unit for removing micro contamination and oil in liquid, that can prevent "bad odor" and "oil / foreign matters" simply by connecting to air.

This section introduces the mechanism of foreign matters and oil removal using microbubbles and the features of the JCC-HM2.

▲ Comparison table with other methods / Comparison based on the general characteristics of the products in question

Contaminants (oil, foreign matters, etc.) in the liquid adhere to the microbubbles and floats to the surface, purifying the liquid.

Quickly separates contaminants by adhering foreign matters and oil to the coalesce (removable). The unique flow channel structure separates contaminants, prevents re-mixing of contaminants, and reduces the amount of liquid waste. In addition, the parts of the treatment tank are removable for easy cleaning.

▲ Coalescer part (removable)

Since the only power required for CC-HM2 is air, it is easy to install and can be operated immediately. In addition, not only is a power supply unnecessary, but also consumables such as filters are not required. Just connect air and two hoses (sewage IN / purified water OUT) and it is ready to go.

CC-HM2 is compact and can be installed in any available space such as above a tank. Choose the model that suits your equipment and environment regardless of the installation location.

We have demo units available to rent out, so please contact us if you have any problems with bad odors.
