FOG and Odor – FOG NO MORE

June 7, 2021

Fats, Oils and Greases wreak havoc for most municipalities.

Fats tend to build up and cause operational and odor issues in pump stations until cleaned by hand. Cleaning and maintaining your wastewater pump station and transmission lines takes time and energy that is best spent somewhere else.

Three things that Vapex System can do to reduce issues with your FOG problems:

1. Cut The Fat

The Vapex technology creates a hydroxyl radical in a vapor phase which is a naturally occurring oxidant that is produced by combining ozone, water and air.  The hydroxyl radical vapor breaks the carbon bonds that form the fatty acid chain reducing and eliminating surface fats, oils and grease back to their elemental state and they stay in solution.

2. Reduce the Stench in your pumpstation

The hydroxyl radical vapor also “cleans the air”, walls and equipment within the pumpstation of odor molecules like H2S. H2S eats at concrete and metals and over time will degrade everting in the enclosed area.  The Vapex system traps the H2S molecules in the water not allowing it to escape into the air. This keeps everything above the water clean and odor free and free from corrosion. 

3.  Save Time, Energy and Money

Now that you don’t have to clean the stinky fat trap of a pumpstation by hand and the pumps will not have to pump said FOG they should last longer and be easier to maintain.  All the Vapex unit needs is a small amount of water and power to operate, and the maintenance of the system is keeping the filters cleaned and changed annually.   


Along with case studies of the Vapex solution that prove that they can eliminate the odors and FOG that are problematic for most municipalities.

Did you know that Vapex will also pilot test to prove that they can do what they say they can do? Some tests will only need a few days to prove to you its capabilities.
