Oily waste water filters.
Oily waste water filters.

Gents
Not sure I am in the correct forum. We are an offshore vessel trying to clean our Oily bilge waste water.
We are using a Hamworthy OWS HS 5 (Oily water Separator) and it does separate the oil from the water, but since there is no fine filter in this unit (like the old units) therefore, although once passed thru the separator there is no more oil in the water, the water is not clean enough to pass the 15 ppm sensor, due to rust or carbon particles.
My question is what type of filter (brand and model) can you recommend? The flow is aprox 83 lit/min.

RE: Oily waste water filters.
I see your point in using Flocculants but we suck from the bottom of the tanks to get "clean" water. But if we use this chemicals we will get oil on the top and the sludge at the bottom, so where should we then suck the water from to forward it into our OWS Oily water Separator? Dont want to pump that sludge into it.
I'm sure you have a good answer to that.
