RP18 as a Filter case study
More than just an adsorbent fabric, RP18's special design qualities make it a good filter too. The construction of RP18 is such that there is a large amount of free space which allows water to pass through whilst retaining the oil. This has been illustrated also in 'A method for Cleaning Foreshores' case study. This fabric is useful where water flows are high and the amount of oil retained is ...

Monitoring Hydrocarbons in Bilge Water
The Situation Various processes onboard ships, such as machinery wash-down, maintenance, and leakage generate oily wastewater. This contaminated water flow collects in the bilge of the ship. Marine diesel, lubricating oils, grease, as well as garbage may be present in bilge water. The bilge water is discharged overboard, with oil and grease concentrations in the discharged water limited by ...

Respirometry study about the olive oil effects in the activated sludge process case study
The problem of Oils in the Activated Sludge Process In many activated sludge plants excessive oils discharges can give rise to Nocardia foaming which causes major operational problems. While the bulk of the oils are removed in Dissolved Air Flotation (DAF) units or grease interceptors the remainder must be treated in the wastewater treatment system. But however, in case of high concentration, ...

Sources of Error in oil in Water Measurerments and Their Impact on Comparing Oil in Water Monitors - Case study
1 Introduction The technology for measuring oil in produced water is changing in response to regulatory changes and the need for reducing environmental impacts. Evaluating new measurement technology and methods for measuring oil is complicated by the nature of oil as a parameter. Since, in effect, oil is defined by the method specified to measure it; comparing methods can be a complicated ...

When to Use an Oil Skimmer
Oil skimmers are very effective in removing oil from wastewater before discharge but are also perhaps the most efficient and economical approach. Despite these advantages, oil skimmers are not found in every power plant. Some plants rely on less-efficient oil removal procedures, failing to recognize that even a single release could cost more money than upgrading a facility to modern ...
