We hold expertise in offering oil water separators, which are commonly used in Petroleum and petrochemical industries. These oil separators are extended version of oil water separators used in shipboards. Available in standard sizes and capacities, we can also supply our oil water separators in customized options, to suit the requirements of our clients.
Construction: The
oil water or the oily effluent gets collected in the underground tank with the function of gravity. For pumping the effluent through the oil water separator, a slow running low shear pump is used. To start or stop the pump, an automatic level control system is used. The oil water separator consists of three stages depending upon the level in the underground tank. The stages are as under:
- Parallel plate cross flow separator
- Multimedia filtration column
- Coalesce column
The parallel plate cross flow separator is used for separating the larger oil globules and larger suspended particles. To provide enough opportunities for coagulation of finer oil globules in to larger oil globules, the parallel plate separator is used for providing a large surface area for oily water to flow over. The major portion of the oil gets removed with the help of parallel plate separator. Further, water with fine traces of dispersed oil is transferred to the colescer column, which consists of various colescer filters to remove the traces of oil.
To trap all the suspended solids and to prevent them for entering and blocking coalescers, the multimedia filter is mounted between the parallel plate separators. These are equipped with automatic control for automatic operation of the separator. The system can operate automatically, without any assistance of the operator. Equipped with automatic oil water interface sensors and electro-pneumatic valves, which are mounted on each of the columns, our systems open the electro-pneumatic valves, which discharges the accumulated oil, when the level of the accumulated oil in the oil collection dome, increases by a certain level. When the oil gets drained, our detectors signal the control panel to shut off the electro-pneumatic valves. Available in various capacities, our separators are slid mounted and can be assembled in short time.
