Manufacturing
Metal fabrication, glass, ceramics, plastics, and rubber plants with particulate-heavy process water requiring TSS and turbidity removal.
ginseng
Our smart, modular water treatment system. Plug it into your existing infrastructure. Treat your wastewater for reuse or safe discharge.
Removes Particulates Effectively:
Strips Total Suspended Solids (TSS) and turbidity (cloudiness) from your process water, ensuring you meet sewer discharge compliance.
Enables On-Site Reuse:
Produces high-quality, clear water for your non-potable processes—like cooling, parts washing, or general wash down.
Reducing Water Costs Drastically:
Cuts your reliance on high-cost municipal water, slashing your utility and disposal bills.
Own it or lease it.
Purchase the full system outright with full hardware and software included. Or lease the ginseng through our monthly payment method.
What our partners say
“After struggling to find a technology capable of treating our wastewater, we found 4Earth and the ginseng. It has outperformed every other technology we had tried before. Strong technical expertise, outstanding customer service, and a willingness to tackle complex challenges. That combination is rare.”
David Lazoda Project Lead Engineer, Central Life Sciences
“The ginseng element has consistently met expectations, demonstrating stable operation, efficient water recovery, and reliable integration into our process. A robust and dependable component of our water management strategy. 4Earth has been a strong partner throughout the entire project life cycle.”
Brad Heimsness Facility Manager, Cox Manheim
The Process
The Core Treatment Process is Ceramic Flat Sheet Ultrafiltration.
Pretreatment - An Optional Pretreatment module is available depending on the application. Our pretreatment system combines optimized coagulation, effectively binding and clumping smaller contaminants and particulates, preparing them for highly efficient removal.
Ultrafiltration - Our robust ceramic Ultrafiltration (UF) membrane material delivers exceptional physical filtration at the molecular level. This stage is designed for industrial-grade durability and consistent low-energy performance, effectively removing suspended solids, fine particulates, and colloidal matter.

Frequently Asked Questions
The Ginseng is used by manufacturing plants, food and beverage processors, data centers, and any facility generating industrial wastewater that needs onsite treatment and reuse.
The Ginseng removes Total Suspended Solids (TSS), turbidity, oil, grease, and colloidal matter using ceramic flat-sheet ultrafiltration membranes rated down to 0.1 microns.
No. The Ginseng uses self-cleaning ceramic membranes that eliminate the need for manual bag filters, reducing labor costs and maintenance downtime.
The Ginseng is containerized and arrives pre-assembled. Typical deployment takes 2–4 weeks from delivery, including connection to your existing water infrastructure and commissioning.
It's our risk-reduction process: we start with a bench-scale test using your actual wastewater, then move to an onsite pilot, and finally deploy the full system. You only scale up after seeing proven results with your water.
