2. Oil skimmer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil_skimmer

   An oil skimmer is a device that is designed to remove oil floating on a liquid surface. They are commonly used to recover oil from oil spills in water, or in Industrial situations where waters are contaminated with oil. Oil skimmers are designed to remove free floating oil and are not water treatment devices.

3. API oil–water separator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/API_oil–water_separator

   Oily water separators (OWS) for separating oil from the bilge water accumulated in ships as required by the international MARPOL Convention. [8] [9] Oil and water separators are commonly used in electrical substations. The transformers found in substations use a large amount of oil for cooling purposes. Moats are constructed surrounding ...

4. Oil–water separator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil–water_separator

   The oil accumulating at the top is then transferred with some en-trained water to a waste oil tank. This type of oily water separator is very common for many industrial applications as well as in ships but it has some flaws that decrease efficiency. Oil particles that are sixty micrometers in size or smaller do not get separated.

5. Oily water separator (marine) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oily_water_separator_(marine)

   The oil accumulating at the top is then transferred to waste oil tank on the vessel where it is later discharged to a treatment facility ashore. This type of Oily Water Separator is common in ships, but it has flaws that decrease efficiency. Oil particles that are twenty micrometers or smaller are not separated.

6. Boom (containment) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boom_(containment)

   A containment boom is a temporary floating barrier used to contain an oil spill. Booms are used to reduce the possibility of polluting shorelines and other resources, and to help make recovery easier. Booms help to concentrate oil in thicker surface layers so that skimmers, vacuums, or other collection methods can be used more effectively. They ...

7. Cutting fluid - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cutting_fluid

   The official technique to measure oil concentration in cutting fluid samples is manual titration: [4] 100ml of the fluid under test is titrated with a 0.5M HCl solution to an endpoint of pH 4 and the volume of titrant used to reach the endpoint is used to calculate the oil concentration. This technique is accurate and not affected by fluid ...

9. 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 ...
