Brush SKIMMER
Zenit Ambiente ‘s Skimmer with brush rollers is suitable for recovering from the water surface oils of different viscosities, from the most volatile such as gas oils and gasoline to the most viscous such as crude oil.
The roller recovers water-free oil so it is particularly suitable for any application where a pure and possibly reusable product is required.
The roller is also able to recover the thin film of oil that, when present in small amounts, creates a surface iridescence. It can operate completely autonomously without the presence of operators and supervision, continuously for long periods.
The operation of the skimmer is very simple, based on the adhesion effect of the oil to the particular roller material. The rotation of the rollers creates a surface flow that allows the recovery of floating substances even in areas of the tank farther from the Skimmer. The roller is rotated by an air motor, the oil adheres to the surface and is lifted off the water. As the oil adhering to the roller approaches the scrapers, it is recovered and conveyed to the reservoir where the pump, also pneumatic, direct suction and located on board Skimmer, is housed. The pump sends the recovered oil to final storage.
Description
APPLICATIONS
In the case of oils that are particularly viscous or polluted with sludge, the Brush Skimmer is a viable alternative to the roller because it combines the adhesion property of the oil to the bristle material with the mechanical effect of the bristles on the crust of thicker products.
The brush is less selective than the roller in terms of oil recovery, but in the case of low-temperature locations the roller may be inefficient, so the brush is more effective.
BRUSH ADVANTAGE
Recovery of large quantities of even very viscous oil. It can operate completely autonomously without the presence of operators and supervision.
