Collection and Treatment of Oily Wastewater

Learn about the latest advancements in oil/water separation technology and secondary treatment of oil contaminated water.

Industrial facilities are facing increasingly more stringent regulations covering the treatment and discharge of oily wastewater and now risk costly penalties resulting from public pressure for the government to control harmful oil spills and pollutant discharges. This information will help managers and engineers of industrial, transportation, and petroleum facilities comply with SPCC plans and meet oil discharge limitations under the new sewer pretreatment and storm water regulations with the use of a properly designed, installed, operated, and maintained oil/water separator. This material highlights the latest advancements in oil/water separation technology including enhanced oil/water separators that employ advanced hydrocarbon filtration systems for secondary treatment of oil contaminated water.

Learning Objectives

  • You will be able to define the five elementary categories which oil can exist in water.
  • You will be able to describe the factors that adversely affect oil/water separator performance.
  • You will be able to explain how an oil/water separator works.
  • You will be able to review the federal regulations that may impact an oil/water separator system.
