Corrugated Plate Interceptor

Product Advantages:

1.  Efficient oil-water separation:The corrugated plate aggregation technology can quickly separate oil droplets with a particle size of >20μm, and the oil-water separation efficiency is as high as more than 90%, which is significantly better than the traditional oil separator.

2. Compact modular design:The floor area is only 30%-50% of the traditional API oil separator, saving space costs, especially suitable for land-constrained plant areas or mobile sewage treatment needs.

3. Zero energy consumption operation:It completely relies on the principle of gravity separation, does not require electricity or external power, and long-term use greatly reduces energy consumption costs.

4. Ultra-low maintenance cost:There are no complex mechanical parts, only the floating oil on the surface of the corrugated plate needs to be cleaned regularly, the maintenance frequency is low, the operation is simple, and the labor cost is saved by more than 30%.

5. Strong adaptability:It is suitable for high-concentration oily wastewater (petroleum, grease, cutting fluid, etc.), and is compatible with petrochemical, food, shipbuilding, machinery and other industry scenarios.

6. Corrosion resistance and long life:The core corrugated plate is made of high-standard 316 stainless steel or PP material, which is corrosion-resistant and high-temperature resistant. The equipment life can reach 10+ years, reducing the replacement frequency.

7. Quick installation and commissioning:The integrated prefabricated structure supports ready-to-use installation without complex civil engineering, shortening the project cycle by more than 50%.

8. Customizable upgrades:Supports customization of size and material according to flow rate (5-500m³/h) and water quality (pH, temperature), and can integrate intelligent monitoring systems to meet the needs of smart factories.

Working Principle:

The CPI Separator is designed for industrial oil-water separation, helping remove free oil from wastewater through gravity separation and corrugated plate technology. It is suitable for various industrial applications where oily wastewater and drainage require effective oil separation.

1. Oil Refinery Wastewater

Used in refineries to separate free oil from oily wastewater generated by process operations, equipment drainage, and refinery runoff. The CPI Separator supports oil-water separation as part of refinery wastewater pretreatment.

2. Petrochemical Wastewater

Suitable for petrochemical plants handling oily process wastewater and industrial drainage. Its corrugated plate design provides an effective separation surface for removing free oil before wastewater enters subsequent treatment stages.

3. Oil Storage Tanks and Terminals

Applied in tank farms, oil storage facilities, and petroleum terminals to treat oily drainage associated with oil storage, transfer, and loading operations. It helps separate free oil from collected wastewater and oily runoff.

4. Metalworking and Machining Wastewater

Suitable for selected wastewater streams from metal processing, machining workshops, and machinery manufacturing where free oil is present. The CPI Separator helps separate floating oil from wastewater generated during industrial operations.

5. Automotive Manufacturing and Maintenance

Used in suitable oily wastewater streams from automotive manufacturing plants, auto parts processing facilities, and vehicle maintenance areas. It helps separate free oil from collected drainage before further wastewater treatment.

6. Power Plant Oily Drainage

Applicable to selected oily drainage streams in power plants, including wastewater associated with equipment areas and oil-handling operations. The CPI Separator provides a gravity-based oil separation stage within the overall wastewater treatment process.

7. Industrial Stormwater and Oily Runoff

Suitable for selected runoff streams collected from industrial sites, oil terminals, and other areas where rainwater may come into contact with oil-contaminated surfaces. It helps separate free oil from collected runoff before subsequent treatment or discharge.

8. Oil and Gas Produced Water

For suitable oilfield and oil-and-gas wastewater projects, CPI separation technology can be considered as part of the oil-water separation process. Equipment selection can be based on the wastewater characteristics, flow rate, and project operating conditions.
