Why is removing oil from water important?
In just about every industrial process on earth, whether it’s making
steel or cosmetics, food processing, mining, railroads, or construction, water plays an important part of a
company’s operations. Similarly, in most, if not all of those same industries, oil plays some kind of role.
It may be lubrication oil, fuel oil, or the process itself may consume or produce oil – such as in chemical
plants and oil refineries. Chances are, at some point, water comes into contact with oil.
In today’s world, the environmentally and economically conscious seek to recycle and reuse both water and
oil. The very first step in any recycle or reuse process is to separate the oil from the water.
