What Cleanawater did
Calling on decades of expertise in oily water treatment, Cleanawater identified our belt oil skimmer as the ideal solution.
The belt skimmer system we supplied would remove oils from the sump automatically. The system uses an oleophilic tube that rests on the water's surface. This tube is automatically dragged back through a scraper and into a waste oil drum for easy removal. In addition, we supplied a timer to automatically run the belt skimmer two hours per day – ensuring minimal power usage.
This system provided Byrnecut with significant ongoing cost savings; the effective removal of floating oils and debris meant Byrnecut avoided costly pump-outs of contaminated wastewater.
The belt skimmer's timer ensures the system runs only at peak times – saving on power costs. And because the belt skimmer is portable, the low-cost system was transportable for use at other sites.
