Oil Skimmer

Manufactured by: Raimondi (Italy)

An oil skimmer allows for the separation of the oil and the grease dissolved in emulsion in the washing solution on the basis of their different specific weights. It is made of stainless steel and it is supplied by a floater installed in the washing tank which maintains the suction at the top level of the washing solution. A pneumatic pump suctions the oil’s superficial layer and directs it into the oil skimmer where it is processed. The decreased water is recovered into the tank while the oil is collected into a barrel provided by the maintenance workers. To obtain the best process the liquid to be treated needs to be at a low temperature.
