Commercial Marine and Industrial Oil Water Separators

Industrial Oil Water Separators
This oil water separator is specifically designed to handle air compressor condensate. This separator has NO moving parts and is nearly maintenance free. It’s designed to give turbulent free plug flow for maximum oil water separation. A large turbulence free separation chamber provides sufficient residence time for coalescing gravity separation, and the effluent header design and placement insures maximum residence time for separation.
These fiberglass oil water separators have the unique capability to be modified to fit your application. With the built in oil skimmer, hopper bottom solids chamber, removable coalescer pak and cover standard. The ROSF Series Fiberglass Coalescing Oil Water Separators are designed for above grade applications where a high performance coalescing oil water separator is desired using coalescing media.

​Air Compressor Condensate Oil Water Separator Evaporator

The ConEVAP™ Air Compressor Condensate Oil Water Separator Evaporator is a thermostatically controlled, electrically heated evaporation unit that separates air compressor condensate from spent compressor lubricant. The condensate water leaves the unit as atmospheric steam and the lubricant is periodically drained from the unit.

ShoreVAP Gas Fired Waste Water Evaporator​

​The ShoreVAP waste water evaporator has been engineered to efficiently evaporate the water content from many non-combustible waste water sources. A power exhaust system releases the moisture into the air, leaving only a small residue requiring disposal.

Dissolved Air Flotation – DAF

The DAF process consists of super saturation of discharge water from the effluent end of the DAF tank with air. The super saturated water stream is then mixed with the wastestream. As pressure is removed from the saturated stream millions of microscopic bubbles form and attach themselves to the contaminants in the wastewater, thereby changing their buoyancy and floating them to the water surface where they can be skimmed and removed from the water.

​Oil Water Separator (OWS) High Oil Alarm System

SkimOil’s oil water separator (OWS) oil level sensor and alarm system was originally designed to provide an alarm signal when accumulated oil would reach a predetermined level. That signal / alarm could then be used to activate pump out systems (by others) or to alert operators that the oil water separator(OWS) needs attention or maintenance — and/or provide signal voltage for other controls — because the oil has reached that preset level.

BILGMON 488

The IMO Res. MEPC.107(49) resolution regulates the design and performance of the oily water separators (OWS)and the 15 ppm Bilge Alarms for machinery space bilges of ships. Each ship must have a certified 15 ppm bilge alarm for measuring the oil content in the discharge water. The 15 ppm Bilge Alarm type BilgMon 488 is approved and certified in accordance with the latest IMO resolution MEPC.107(49) and in addition, designed to meet the particular needs from the crew when processing the bilge water.

Coalescing Media

 SkimOIL’s Flow-Thru, Coalescing Media Systems provide high performance oils and fuels separation in a compact, high surface area design.     
Flow-Thru coalescing media systems are designed to remove non-emulsified, free & dispersed oils and fuels from water.
Coalescing Media is a standard feature of our high performance oil water separators and are also offered for replacement or retrofitting of existing tanks to improve performance and increase flow rates. Removal efficiencies have been as low as <1 mg/L down to non-detect

Automatic Floating Weir Oil Skimmer-Separator​

​Automatic smart oil skimmer system is a self contained skimmer purposely built for specific jobs. Originally designed for hydro dams—to go down into very deep wells and automatically skim and separate oil from water and pump the oil up to the surface —automatically. With onboard pumps, controls, and monitoring, the automatic floating weir oil skimmer is fully programmable.

Ground Water Remediation Systems

The GWRS systems are designed for treatment of water generated by pump and treated groundwater remediation facilities. System configuration can be customized depending on the project needs. the GWRS systems are designed to remove petroleum based oils, fuels, organics, suspended solids, and other contaminants. Where removal of high loadings of suspended solids, dissolved minerals and metals are required, additional treatment or design may be needed.
Any of our treatment products can be combined to design the needed configuration for any flow rate and contaminant type(s).

Used on the toughest applications around the world, oil water separators and Marine Oil water Separators for the Commercial Marine Industry are flow-thru devices that are designed to remove free and un-emulsified oils from water. They rely on the differential in specific gravity between oil and water to do the separation. The addition of a coalescer media improves the removal efficiency, allowing finer separation within the same space. Below are the different types of oil water separators.

We build systems to specifically address your problem through the use of our specialty, existing, unique and innovative technologies or equipment that can be used off the shelf or modified, configured or otherwise packaged, to fit your specific needs. Ready yet? We specialize in technologies for removing oil from water. There are too many types to put them all here. These separators are designed and sized to produce an effluent concentration of less than 15mg/L of oil droplets 30 micron and larger of non-emulsified, sheen free, free and dispersed oil. Although most oil water separators are used to prepare water for discharge, many other applications are for deoiling water for reuse, tramp oil removal and process treatment.

Cross-industry exposure and experience has taught us that there aren’t that many new problems — just new or recycled versions of the same old stuff. That’s where we come in. We bring experience, specialized knowledge and technologies to your oil water separator or oil skimmer project.

HOLD ON for JUST a minute:

Oil water separation is NOT quite over! Here’s an Alternative:

There’s another GREAT option for oil and water separation that does separate the two….but it does it by evaporating the water portion away…leaving you with just the oils and any solids. With our atmospheric evaporators the water is gone….separated from the oil. We have several different types of water / waste water evaporator systems. Electric evaporators have no emissions at all! Evaporation is a wild card that might work? Call us
Water is water at 211 degrees…….we take it past 212 F………….water’s gone!
Our BilgeVAP separates oil from bilge water. The MarineVAP separates both oil dirt and soaps from marine waste waters by evaporating the water portion away.
Our ConEVAP separates compressor oil from condensate by evaporating the water portion away. NO DISCHARGE IS A GOOD DISCHARGE
