oil skimmer

There are two primary types of oil skimmers. The first type filters and removes oil, debris, and other unwanted materials from liquids. The second type is designed to recover or capture oil in a reusable form, commonly used for cleaning oil spills in factories, refineries, and bodies of water. Oil skimmers are applied in various settings, including plant pumps, tanks, coolant systems, and outdoor cooling or settling ponds.

When choosing an oil skimmer, key specifications to consider are capacity, measured in gallons per minute (gpm), and the removal or recovery rate, expressed in gallons per hour (gph).
