Marine Oil Skimmers

Vacuum unit Econad is designed for mechanization of work on the vacuum collection of oil (petroleum products) spilled on the soil on a solid and water surface, as well as for cleaning oil tanks, settling tanks, reservoirs, pits, evaporators.

Principle of operation:
The mechanism of operation is quite simple: the device is equipped with a capacity of 75-600 liters, which has a special nozzle for collecting spilled oil (petroleum products). The nozzle is brought to the surface requiring cleaning, after which the vacuum pump is turned on, powered by a gasoline or diesel internal combustion engine. A negative pressure of 0.5 atmosphere is created in the tank, under the influence of which oil enters the cylinder. When the cylinder is full, the device switches to the unloading mode, while positive pressure can be created in the tank or oil flows out by gravity through the hose connected to the tank.

The Minibagger is a highly efficient, cost-effective rapid response tool for localized oil spills in coastal areas, lakes and ports.

SeaHow’s patented invention, the Minibagger Comb Brush, picks up both heavy and light oils extremely efficiently. With the Minibagger, you can even collect diesel fuel from the water surface using any watercraft.
The robust aluminum outrigger is equipped with a wheel at the end for easier and more efficient collection of oil products from the walls of berths and sides of ships.

The OILX drum skimmer is a floating device for collecting oil and oil products of varying viscosity from the water surface.

Principle of operation:
With the help of rotating drums, oil products are collected from the surface of the water by sticking to the surface of the drum and discharged into a container tightly attached to the skimmer.

FEATURES OF THE SKIMMER MODEL “OILX”, COMPANY “EKONAD”
When creating the skimmer MODEL OILX, special aluminum alloys are used in the design, resistant to the aggressive marine environment. Replaceable cartridges allow you to work effectively with various types of oil products and with virtually any thickness of oil contamination. As a drive for skimmers MODEL OILX, a hydraulic station from an internal combustion engine is used.

Threshold skimmers of the AQUA model are floating devices designed to collect oil and oil products of varying degrees of viscosity from the surface of port water areas, calm rivers, floodplains, artificial reservoirs, swamps.

AQUA skimmers can be installed with booms during OSR operations. Also intended for stationary use in sedimentation tanks, tanks.

OPERATING PRINCIPLE of the threshold skimmer MODEL “AQUA”, COMPANY “EKONAD”
A pump driven by a hydraulic station with a continuously adjustable hydraulic flow allows you to adjust the thickness of the pumped oil film layer. The performance of AQUA skimmers depends on the performance (power) of the pumped out device.

The XENA disc skimmer is a floating device for collecting oil and oil products of various viscosities from the water surface. It is possible to collect both petroleum products and organic oils.

Peculiarities:
The performance of the skimmer can be adjusted depending on the situation and tasks.
It can work both in the port water area and in the coastal zone.

PRINCIPLE OF WORK disc skimmers MODEL “XENA”, COMPANY “EKONAD”
Oil products adhere to the outer surface of the rotating drum or discs, which are constructed of PVC material, aluminum or steel. The discs rotate thanks to a hydraulic (or electric) motor.
The oil products are then mechanically removed using scrapers. From the oil sump, the collected contaminants are pumped out by a pump located on the shore or on the ship. The kit may include an arrow with barrage booms.
