Oil Separator

The principles employed in the design of the oil separators are gravity and coalescence.  It is a well accepted fact that oil and water, unless emulsified, do not want to mix in the first place. Given enough time, they will separate from each other by gravity alone. These separators, however, employ a unique oleophilic (oil attracting) media to draw tiny oil particles out of the water phase of a coolant or wash water and collect them. As additional droplets continue to be attracted to the media they coalesce (run together) with the previous droplets to form much larger droplets having sufficient buoyancy to break free and rise to the separator surface. At the surface, an oil-retaining weir holds the oil back as the clean water passes under the weir. The surfaced oil is drained off by an adjustable skimmer that is set to continuously peel away and remove the topmost portion of the oil layer that contain virtually no water.
 
The oleophilic, coalescing media accelerates the separation of the oil and water phases of the emulsion of solution and permits the separation to take place in a much smaller tank than would be required under gravity alone.
The unit is virtually self cleaning and requires no maintenance after initial adjustments are made at installation. Fine solids float to the liquid surface where they are washed out with the existing tramp oil.  The separator may require periodic cleaning if heavy solids are not removed elsewhere.
