Sewage gas / biogas is gas that is saturated with water vapor. In fermentation gas plants and their pipeline systems, there is typically a build-up of condensed water caused by temperature effects. Condensate can lead to blockages at low points and deposits, corrosion, etc. in pipe sections.

There is a need for a condensate separator for low-point water drainage which effectively and safely collects and removes condensed water from the pipeline system.

Condensate separators are usually installed directly in the pipeline but can also be attached below the low-lying points of the pipeline. The water condensed out accumulates on the container walls or the separation wall and is collected at the bottom of the container. Removal is manual via a ball valve or automatic via a siphon or automatic condensate separator.
