SKIMZOIL™: Innovative New Oil Separation and Removal System

SKIMZOIL is perfect for aqueous washers, coolant filtration sumps and other industrial wastewater process tanks. The SKIMZOIL™ system effectively pulls off floating oils without removing precious water and valuable chemicals.

Efficient and Effective Industrial Water Recycling

This system improves upon the best features of surface skimming equipment and coalescing tanks. Oil and water are drawn through a floating suction in the contaminated process tank and the floating oil is trapped by weirs, in a stainless steel separation tank. The trapped oil is then picked up by an oil-attracting rotating drum. The water level is easily set to allow the drum to only remove oil and prevent drag out of water and chemicals. The oil is simply wiped from the surface of the drum into a separate waste vessel. With this industrial water recycling system, the clean water returns to the process tank for re-use.

Benefits.

By effectively removing the oily contaminants, the SKIMZOIL™ system is very valuable at extending the working life of aqueous wash baths and coolant tanks. In addition, the SKIMZOIL™ improves solution performance and reduces harmful bacterial growth, by aerating the solution as it is circulated. Got smokin' parts?

Simple Solution for Recycling Industrial Wastewater

The SKIMZOIL™ oil separation system has been designed for simple set-up and ease of use. It does not require frequent adjustment, monitoring or flow balancing to be effective. There is no internal media to plug and one of the tank weirs is removable for ease of maintenance.

The separation tank is available in three sizes: 15 gallons, 35 gallons and 80 gallons. The smallest unit has a 1 ft - -2 ft footprint and is capable of removing over 25 gallons of free-floating oil per hour. This unit comes wired for 110 VAC and the diaphragm pump utilizes plant.

Oil Separation Applications

Free Floating Oil Typical Applications

• Heat Treat Washers to remove quench oil
• In Process Washers to remove cutting oils
• Machining coolants to remove hydraulic and tramp oils
• Compressor condensate to remove oil
• Floor scrubbing and mop water to remove floating oils
• Combined waste stream to remove oils

System Features:

• Highly efficient, removes mostly oils, leaves clean water & valuable chemicals
• Highly effective, very high oil removal rates
• Reliable Equipment Simple Design = Low Maintenance
• Small footprint, even capable of tank mounting

Choosing the proper Skimzoil Unit

The size needed is not related to the size of tank being skimmed. It is directly related to the time required for the oil to phase separate.

1. Skimzoil™ Model A Floating Oil Removal System Including 15 gallon settling tank = 1 minute or less.
2. Skimzoil™ Model B, Floating Oil Removal System Including 35 gallon settling tank = 2-3 minutes or less
3. Skimzoil™ Model C, Floating Oil Removal System Including 80 gallon settling tank= 3-5 minutes
