Rental Units, Pilot, and Testing Programs
Equipment to rent or pilot to determine its suitability before you invest in a full scale system
Application or technical questions?
Monroe Environmental Pilot Systems are a cost-effective option for determining if a particular technology is a suitable solution for your plant’s specific application. This greatly reduces the risk of a potential capital investment in environmental technology. You can truly “know before you buy” a full scale system. Contact a Monroe Environmental Applications Engineer to discuss a pilot system for your plant.
Rental and Pilot Systems
Monroe Environmental Rental and Pilot Systems are an excellent option for testing a technology’s performance capability and suitability for a particular application. This is a cost-effective way to evaluate an environmental solution before making a capital investment in a full scale system. Monroe has several Pilot Systems available for rent as well as the support services required to install, operate, and evaluate the system’s performance.
Upon completion of a Pilot System test, Monroe Environmental can evaluate and analyze the system’s performance and present a written report summarizing the results and recommendations in order to properly scale up for a full system. We work with your operators, engineers, and maintenance personnel to design a true solution that will meet the needs of your plant and application.
Please contact a Monroe Environmental Applications Engineer to learn more about our pilot system capabilities.

Recent Projects
X-Flo Mobile Clarifier™ Permanent Solution for Fracking Water Treatment
After operating for just a few days, it was clear to the site’s operators that the Monroe X-Flo Clarifier™ was the right solution for their fracking water treatment operations. The rental pilot became the permanent solution.
Mobile Clarifier to Reduce TSS
A large energy utility needed to conduct pressurized testing of new gas pipeline. A Monroe X-Flo Mobile Clarifier™ provided continuous treatment of the hydrotest water, and separated the TSS and clarified the water prior to disposal.
X-Flo Mobile Clarifier™ for Frac Water Treatment
Monroe's X-Flo Mobile Clarifiers have a higher throughput and the ability to separate and remove settle-able solids as well as floating oils at the same time.
