Primary Function
|
|
There are two basic types of oil skimmers. One type is used to filter and remove oil, debris, and other unwanted materials from water, solvents, cleaning solutions, etc. The other type is used to recover or capture oil in a usable state. Typically, these skimmers are used to clean up oil spills in factories, refineries, bodies of water, etc.

Oil Filtering / Removal
|
|
The skimmer's primary function is to filter oil and oily products from the media.
|
| |
Oil Recovery
|
|
The skimmer's primary function is to recover usable oil or oil products from the media.

|
| |
Gravity
|
|
Gravity skimmers rely upon the difference in specific gravity between the oil and the water or solution. Oil floats to the top and is removed. Gravity skimmers are the simplest type of oil skimmers, but are slower than other devices because they use a less active technology.
|
| |
Belt
|
|
Belt skimmers run through a contaminated liquid continuously, using a belt to pick up the oil. The oil is then removed from the belt, often with a wiper.
|
| |
Wheel
|
|
Wheel skimmers pass a coated disc or wheel through the contaminated liquid. The disc or wheel picks up the oil, which is then skimmed off outside the tank.
|
| |
Tube / Side Mount
|
|
With tube skimmers, a rope or string is circulated through the contaminated liquid to pick up the oil. Tube skimmers can be side-mounted for low clearance applications.
|
| |
Sponge / Absorption
|
|
Sponge skimmers use absorptive materials that are designed to capture oil, but not water or other filtered solutions. When they reach absorptive capacity, sponge skimmers are often disposed of as solid waste.
|
| |
Coalescing
|
|
Coalescing oil skimmers pass contaminated water through a coalescing media.
|
| |
Centrifuge
|
|
Centrifuge skimmers separate media by spinning and causing the denser material (water) to migrate to the outside, where it can be separated.
|
| |
Floating Weir
|
|
Floating weir skimmers include floats and an adjustable-height weir that can be positioned at the oil-water interface so that the contaminant flows into the weir and the water stays out. Floating weir skimmers are often used in tanks to remove pollutants.
|
| |
Handheld / Suction
|
|
Handheld or suction skimmers are small, portable devices used in small spaces such as sumps and manholes. A weir or plate is mounted at the bottom of a pipe and lowered by hand to the interface. The suction then draws the contaminant from the water.
