A company in the waste oil recycling industry contacted us regarding grease that was collecting on the surface of their 18,000 gallon tank:
Q: “We have an 18,000 gallon tank that collects grease trap waste. Currently, we manually remove the free floating fats, oils, and greases, but this is time consuming and inefficient. Would one of your tube oil skimmers work on our tank to remove the oil? ”
A: What a perfect application for our Model 5H oil skimmer with the standard mount! The Model 5H oil skimmer is a compact skimmer specially designed for small or hard-to-get-at places or in congested plant areas where the unit can be located within 3 feet of the water level. It removes waste oils, fats, and greases effectively and efficiently. Like our Model 6V Brill™ skimmer, it is fully automatic, works 24/7, and can be installed on open or closed tanks.
