Oil Water Separator: Market Overview
Waste
water effluents from refineries, chemical/petrochemical plants, and gas processing
plants have high amount of oils and suspended solids. The oil water separator
is a device which is designed to separate these effluents from the wastewater.
The American Petroleum Institute (API) maintains the standards and designs of
these separators. The first API separator was installed in 1933 at the Atlantic
Refining Company (ARCO) refinery in Philadelphia, U.S. almost all the
refineries worldwide install API separators that act as a key stage of the oily
wastewater treatment plants. Oil and water separators are also used in
electrical substations. The transformers found in substations employ a large
amount of oil for cooling purposes. Channels are constructed adjacent to the
enclosed substations to catch any leaked oil and also rainwater is trapped.
Therefore, oil and water separators provide a faster and easier cleaning of an
oil leak.

The oil
water separator also treats wastewater to a certain standard, wherein its
discharge is considered safe into an approved discharge point (sewer). Oil water
separators are typically the first stage of any wastewater treatment system.
However, in some cases, an oil water separator can be used as effective
completion of pipeline treatment equipment. Oils, grease, and other
hydrocarbons are removed and non-hazardous water is left, which can be disposed
off safely in the drainage. The ability of oil water separators make it
possible for sensitive downstream equipment to perform as designed. The
separators reduce overall operating cost and improve system maintenance.
Oil Water Separator Market: Dynamics and Trends
The oil
water separator becomes a necessity to be utilized in cases where water is
produced as a part of operation, discharge of this produced water is to be done
into public, and where water authority compliance is to be achieved for the
discharge. The type of wastewater being produced decides the exact type of oil
water separator that has to be utilized.
The trends
utilized in the oil
water separator market is the removal of oil, grease, and other hydrocarbons
by coalescing methods, which force oil droplets to be impinged on the surface
area. Gravity-based separators operate by putting fluid velocity and its
corresponding pressure in control. The latest technique of hydro cyclone
applies extreme centrifugal forces, which separate the water and oil droplets.
The technology related to building of pressure-rated separators can be
configured for complex operations. These operations are separation of gas from
a myriad of immiscible liquids and suspended solids with same or different
specific gravities.
