Oily Water Separation On Board Ships.

[Lis]

I am carrying out a research project into new methods for separating oil and water, as found in machinery space bilges on board ships.

I am currently researching technologies used shore-side and evaluating their potential for use at sea. I am particularly interested in ozonation, UV exposure, biotechnologies, electrocoagulation, chemical additives, ultrafiltration and dissolved air flotation.

If anybody has any information or experience with any of these, or any other technologies, and would be willing to answer a few specific questions in this area, could you please let me know by replying to this thread.

Many thanks,

Lisa Wooderson.

Let me know what are your questions reqaurding oily water seperation. Costal regulations require less than 15 ppm of Oil discharge from oily water seperators. Mail me with your questions and areas of interest. Again you have to be specific the regualations for pumping bilge varies from tankers to containers and from engine room bilge to cargo hold bilge. so mail me and let me see how i can help you with your work. cheers,
bye and Best of Luck,

Hi rlz,

Thanks for the reply. The project is in its advanced stages now and I have already used your company in my research...come across some really quite interesting ideas so far and hopefully there will soon be a major breakthrough!!!

Thanks again for replying though,

Lis.
