Atlas Air Compressor Oil-Water Separator 1613937080 High Efficiency

Our Advanced Oil-Water Separator is a state-of-the-art treatment system designed to efficiently remove oils, greases, and hydrocarbons from industrial wastewater. Utilizing the principle of gravity separation and advanced coalescing technology, it ensures that effluent water meets strict environmental discharge regulations, protects downstream equipment, and promotes responsible water management.

• High-Efficiency Coalescing Media: Our proprietary media provides a massive surface area for tiny oil droplets to coalesce (merge) into larger ones, dramatically accelerating the separation process and achieving superior effluent quality.
• Regulatory Compliance: Engineered to consistently achieve effluent quality well below the common regulatory limit of < 15 ppm (parts per million) for oil and grease, and often as low as < 5 ppm, ensuring full compliance with local and federal environmental standards (e.g., EPA guidelines).
• Robust Construction: Built to last from corrosion-resistant materials including stainless steel (304/316), coated carbon steel, or reinforced polyethylene to handle aggressive industrial effluents and harsh environments.
• Plug-and-Play Design: Pre-assembled, skid-mounted units for simplified installation, reducing civil works and on-site labor costs. Units are designed for easy integration into new or existing treatment lines.
• Automated Operation: Optional fully automated systems include level sensors, solenoid valves, and PLC controls for automatic oil skimming and sludge ejection, minimizing operator intervention and labor costs.
• Low Maintenance Design: Easy-access inspection hatches, removable coalescer plates, and a simple internal structure facilitate easy cleaning and maintenance, reducing downtime and lifecycle costs.
• High Flow Capacity: Available in a wide range of sizes to handle flow rates from a few gallons per minute (GPM) for workshops to several thousands of GPM for large-scale industrial plants.

1. Influent Entry: Oily wastewater enters the separator, often first passing through a flow control chamber to stabilize the incoming stream.
2. Gravity Separation (Free Oil Removal): In the primary chamber, the flow velocity is reduced. Due to the difference in specific gravity, free-floating oil quickly rises to the surface, and settleable solids sink to the bottom.
3. Coalescence (Emulsified Oil Removal): The water then flows through our advanced coalescing packs. Here, tiny, dispersed oil droplets (emulsified oil) collide with the media and merge into larger droplets.
4. Final Separation: These now-larger oil droplets rise rapidly to the surface due to their increased buoyancy. The clarified water passes under an outlet baffle.
5. Effluent Discharge: The treated water, now containing minimal hydrocarbons, exits the separator for direct discharge, further polishing, or reuse.
6. Sludge & Oil Recovery: Accumulated oil is automatically or manually skimmed from the surface for disposal or recycling. Settled solids are purged from the sludge hopper.

This system is critical for any industry that generates oily wastewater:

• Manufacturing: Coolant and machining fluid runoff from metalworking, stamping, and fabrication plants.
• Oil & Gas: Produced water treatment, refinery runoff, and washdown water from offshore platforms.
• Power Generation: Turbine lube oil leaks, maintenance washdown, and transformer drainage.
• Marine & Ports: Bilge water treatment from ships, dockyard runoff, and ballast water management.
• Transportation: Runoff from vehicle wash bays, railway maintenance depots, and aircraft hangars.
• Food & Beverage: Separation of fats, oils, and greases (FOG) from processing wastewater.
• Utilities: Maintenance washdown from power substations and compressor stations.

• Proven Performance: Backed by extensive third-party testing and case studies demonstrating consistent compliance.
• Custom Engineering: We offer standard models but specialize in designing custom solutions tailored to your specific effluent composition, flow rate, and space constraints.
• Total Cost of Ownership: Our durable design and low-maintenance features ensure lower operational costs over the system's entire lifespan.
• Environmental Leadership: Implementing our separator is a clear commitment to environmental stewardship and sustainable operational practices.
• Global Certification: Our systems are designed and manufactured to meet international standards and certifications.
