Hello everybody,

I'm working on a Main Station Upgrade Project in Venezuela. Right now I'm specifying an skimmer tank, these tank receive clean water from another skimmer tank previously designed, in spite of the water is clean, it may content some amounts of crude oil. I thinking that the skimmer tank must have an floating device for remove the crude oil layer that could be in surface.
I need to know if is possible to place an floating device in one tank with 24m of diameter??? Where can I find some background or antecedent of this? How can I make an specification of this device? which is the most important data of one floating device?

Thanks,

Regards,

LbLópez
