The API Separator has been for many years the workhorse and the best choice as a primary element of Wastewater Treatment in Oil Refineries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The treatment of refinery effluents represents a challenge for the removal of oils and solids; however, from an operational point of view, the API Separator remains the most reliable technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The API Separator is an old acquaintance in oily water separation and was developed by Rex Link Belt in 1933, today (Envirex- Evoqua Water Technologies).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The advances in the technology of this equipment have occurred in the materials, which have evolved from metals to plastic materials, to improve resistance to chemical, bacterial, and abrasion attacks and to produce lighter equipment. At Sumio Water Systems, we have accumulated 20 years of experience with the most recent advances in material technologies for the most aggressive effluents and high temperatures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
API separators are made up of a group of components, which must be studied and selected with the manufacturing materials according to the specific needs of your project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At SWS we design and manufacture the API separator adapted to the particular needs of your project. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
For small flows<\/strong>, the steel tank option is usually the preferred option due to its transportability. We can produce fully pre-assembled units with minimal commissioning and start-up time<\/em><\/strong>. For relatively large flows, concrete tanks are the usual option. Here we have a specialized technical team to assist you in the installation and assembly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The API separator can also be used as an oily water separator in other applications, such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\nOTHER APPLICATIONS<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
