Vacuum oil skimmer is a type of oil spill recovery equipment most suitable for beach shores, shallow water, water, land platforms, and narrow water. It consists of a skimmer tanker, pump truck, and pipeline.
Diesel vacuum power station is driven by diesel engine to vacuum pump. The diesel power into vacuum power, in the buffer tank to produce a vacuum, through the suction head will be on the shore on the ground, floating on the water surface of the oil spill absorbed into the buffer tank. Then, the oil transfer pump transfers the collected oil spill to the oil storage equipment on shore or on board, thus realizing the function of oil spill recovery.
The pump truck provides power for the oil collection tank. The vacuum pump and vacuum tank (skimmer tank) are designed as mobile cart structures, which are easy to carry and transport. The main material of the whole set of equipment is stainless steel, which is durable, low maintenance, low cost, simple structure, easy to operate, and corrosion resistant.
Benefits of Vacuum Oil Skimmer
It has a high suction capacity and can recover oil with a wide range of viscosities. It can also recover oil spillage containing oil residue and small solid particles.
When equipped with lightweight oil storage tanks or other emergency oil storage facilities, the recovery operation can be carried out quickly, and the pressure unloading can be carried out without the need for elevation through the pipeline. Oil can be transported to a distant place, high places, or containers. It can also be fed into common oil drums without using special large-mouth oil drums with cut-off lids, which is more applicable.
ZK30 vacuum skimmer is flexible, lightweight, easy to carry and transport, and can be operated to skim oil in narrow working spaces, undulating ground or water surface on the beach bank where it is difficult to approach by vehicles and ships, or in shallow water where general skimmers cannot operate due to deep draft.
