Trident Industrial Rope Mop Oil Skimmer

The Trident Industrial Mop skimmer is used to recover surface oil contaminants from industrial waste water processes in a wide variety of applications including the following market sectors:
  • Ports and Harbours - General use and for emergency spill response
  • Oil and Gas - Refining, storage, production
  • Thermal Power - Oil and Coal fired, Gas and Nuclear Power Stations
  • National Grid - recovery of transformer oils and general spills
  • Steel Production - steel mills and steel finishing industry
  • Chemical and Pharmaceutical - All types of chemical works
  • Airports - Both civil and military surface water run off drains
  • Product Storage - Aviation fuel tanks at airports and general product storage terminals for fuel oil, diesel, petrol etc
  • Food Industry - To recover Fats Oils and Greases both animal and vegetable oils from the effluent water process
  • General Industry - All manufacturing factories such as pipe manufacture, car factories and other where oil contaminates water processes and drains
  • Specialist oil spill contractors - Built as emergency spill response equipment to aid in the oil spill contractor market
  • Ground water remediation contractors - can be used for all soil and ground water contaminated areas using borehole skimming techniques
  • Water Utilities - sewage treatment works for primary and tertiary recovery of oily wastes.
The advantage of the Trident Industrial mop skimmer is that it can be used in a variety of configurations for vertical or horizontal mop deployments for either down boreholes or drains to recovery across lakes and rivers as well as retro fitting to industrial water treatment facilities. These include - separators, interceptors, drains, reception sumps, settlement ponds, balancing tanks, fat traps and so on.
The system typically incorporates an oily/water separator which allows any free water pick up to be returned to the effluent water allowing only oil to be gravity drained or pumped to the waste oil storage tanks nearby. This means the system can effectively operate 24 hours per day 7 days per week without any manual assistance ensuring peace of mind clearing all visible surface oil contamination.
The skimmers can be powered either by a mains electrical power source or by air, hydraulic or diesel engine if required.
The Industrial Oil Skimmer can be used for any application covering all applications. CAPACITY: 2M3/H - 15M3/H (Depending on final specifications required)
The mops are a specially polypropylene fabric which is stitched to form a continuous loop. The mops are available in 4", 6" and 9" widths in BLACK (for heavy sticky oils) and WHITE (for general use) and from 2m long to 120m long depending on the application.
All systems are made to order to tailor to customer specific requirements.
  • Recovers up to 12 tonnes an hour of floating oil or chemicals
  • Can use 10cm, 15cm or 22cm mops
  • Can be mounted as single or double unit
  • Trailer mounted on Oil Water Separator
  • Variety of drive units available.

Other oil skimmers available:

  • Oil Weir Skimmer - For efficient removal of oil from the surface of water. The weir skimmer is ideal for mobile emergency response or deployment long term.
  • Oil silverweir skimmer - Ideal for emergency oil spill situations. Suitable for use in rivers, lakes, industrial lagoons, interceptors, harbours and sheltered estuarial situations.
  • Oil Delta Skimmer - A robust lightweight skimmer head, ideal for use in shallow water or confined, inaccessible areas where the use of larger skimmers would be impractical.
  • Oil Mini Skimmer - A compact lightweight portable, oleophilic disc skimmer, designed to recover floating oil and other substances from the water.
  • Oil Duplex Skimmer - A highly versatile skimmer – combining the technology of both disc and brush recovery systems into one compact, lightweight skimming system.
  • Low capacity Oil Skimmer - Small low cost effective mop skimmer for surface oil contamination removal in confined areas.
