Oil Concentrator ®

More Complete Oil/Water Separation


• Slashes disposal costs by providing water-free oil for
disposal
• Oil/water separation is virtually complete
• Helps increase the recycle value of skimmed oil
• Saves costly coolant and washing solutions from
premature disposal
• Available for all Abanaki oil skimmers

General Description
The Abanaki Oil Concentrator provides virtually complete oil/
water separation for recycling or disposal of either liquid.
Under most operating conditions, Abanaki skimmers pick up
oil with only small traces of water. However, as surface oil is
reduced to a thin layer (1/16 inch thick or less), more water (or
coolant) may be picked up along with the oil. When used in
tandem with an oil skimmer, the Oil Concentrator solves this
problem by providing final phase separation. The result is water
(or coolant) available for recycling, and virtually water-free oil
for disposal.
The Oil Concentrator is non-electrical and contains no moving
parts — it simply receives liquid directly from the skimmer.
Based on the principle of gravity separation, the Concentrator
tank is sized so that there is adequate dwell time for the oil
and water to separate. Water discharge is through a tube
that has an open end near the bottom of the Concentrator,
while oil flow is through a separate drain port near the top.
As additional liquid enters the Concentrator, water and oil are
forced out through their respective discharge tubes and ports.
A sludge screen provides additional dwell time for separation
while preventing debris from contaminating either the water or
the oil.
Installed at the discharge end of the oil skimmer, the
Concentrator comes complete with mounting bracket,
removable sludge screen and drain plug for easy cleaning.
An optional thermostatically controlled heater is available
for use with thick oils, or when the application is in freezing
temperatures. (A heater should not be used in environments
where explosive fumes might be present.)
Abanaki recommends the use of the Concentrator with all
oil skimmers. It increases the efficiency of the skimmer and
reduces costs associated with oil disposal.
