    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifugal_water–oil...

    The same process that happened in the first tank will happen in the second and third tanks just with less and less contaminants. In a centrifugal oil and water separator, the force of gravity is one-thousand [ citation needed ] times greater that of the coalescing plate pack separator or the petrol interceptor, so the separation is much greater.

  4. Industrial wastewater treatment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industrial_wastewater...

    The effective removal of oils and grease is dependent on the characteristics of the oil in terms of its suspension state and droplet size, which will in turn affect the choice of separator technology. Oil in industrial waste water may be free light oil, heavy oil, which tends to sink, and emulsified oil, often referred to as soluble oil.

  5. Bunding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bunding

    This also can apply to any oil storage tank [citation needed] Oil floats on water and, if still clean enough to see through, has a different refractive index than the water below, making the oil/water interface difficult to judge. This makes manual pumping difficult and unsafe. Removing the entire contents for disposal as hazardous waste is ...

  6. Dissolved air flotation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dissolved_air_flotation

    Dissolved air flotation (DAF) is a water treatment process that clarifies wastewaters (or other waters) by the removal of suspended matter such as oil or solids. The removal is achieved by dissolving air in the water or wastewater under pressure and then releasing the air at atmospheric pressure in a flotation tank basin. The released air forms ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Underground_storage_tank

    This process includes both the closing and removal of a UST system (the tank and any ancillaries connected to it) as a whole and the replacing of individual tanks or lengths of pipe. Regardless of whether the decommissioning of the tank is permanent or temporary; it must be ensured that the tank and all components don't cause pollution.

  9. Grease trap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grease_trap

    The relatively grease-free water is then fed into the normal septic system.The food solids at the bottom and floating oil and grease must be periodically removed in a manner similar to septic tank pumping. [11] A traditional grease trap is not a food disposal unit. Unfinished food must be scraped into the garbage or food recycling bin.
