Reduced size: The Micro Oil Skimmer ® will fit anywhere, from a 44 gallon drum to the Pacific Ocean. The Micro Oil Skimmer has a draught of only 150 mm or 6 inches so it can be placed in very shallow situations. The Micro Oil Skimmer also makes a very useful tool in any oil spill emergency response kit.
Reliability: The Micro Oil Skimmer is built along very simple lines and from a range of reliable materials (depending on what is required) the skimmers are easy to understand and work with in both industrial situations and emergency oil spill situations
Availability: Skimmeronline the manufacturers of the range of Dragonfly Oil skimmers is able to supply any number of Micro Oil Skimmer units at very short notice for any situation.
Flexibility: In many cases, we are able to accommodate special requests for modifications to the Micro Oil Skimmer to make it more effective in particular situations.
Anything with viscosity's of materials like diesel fuel ranging to thick bitumen emulsion.There is a skimmer for most situations with resistance to some or all of the following, acids, caustics, hydrocarbons, solvents, heat, etc. All of the skimmers produced by Skimmeronline are suitable in potable and irrigation water.
Reduced need for costly absorbent booms and oil spill blankets or dispersal chemicals.
Lower labor costs as a result of less material handling.
Reduced response time is needed to get the Micro Oil Skimmer into place.
Lower risk of injury to workers as less time is needed in or near the water.
Once in place the Micro Oil Skimmer equipment can be easily controlled from onshore.
With the use of properly set up primary gravity separation, nearly 100% in the case of non-emulsified contaminants can be retrieved for recycling or disposal.
The Micro Oil Skimmer is light and easily carried and placed in position. It nearly eliminates the need for manhandling floating booms a slippery and often dangerous task where falls are always a risk, particularly when full absorbent booms need to be retrieved. With primary separation most of the oil is separated reducing the need for disposing of many litres of water, in addition, there is no need or a reduced need for high temperature incinerators and the number of workers required for a hazardous oil spill clean up is greatly reduced. In normal waste handling situations nothing can take floating contaminants off the surface of water more quickly than a self adjusting floating surface skimmer. And nothing can do it more economically.
