Characteristics

According to the legislation, oil/water separators must be installed in places where there is oily wastewater production, especially: 

• Gas stations 
• Fuel storage area and hydrocarbon in general 
• Mechanical workshops 
• Laundry areas 
• Storage of scrap metal 
• Parking 
• Airports 
• Garages

Operation

Operation of oil/water separators requires no energy. The separation is based on the density difference between products and is done by gravity. The heavier materials (mud, sand, etc.) sediment into the pre-sedimentation compartment while the lighter materials (oils) float to the surface and are collected in a reservoir.

Maintenance

The standards to be met are the regular inspection, with minimum quarterly frequency, of the following items: 

• Thickness of the layer of oil 
• Sludge accumulated at the bottom 
• Coalescing filters 
• Automatic shut-off valve 
• Alarm device
