The main function of a properly designed API oil separator is to remove the majority of oil and suspended solids from wastewater streams to reduce overloading and other potential problems in the subsequent downstream treatment processes. JunYue’s API oil separator combines the state-of-art separation, skimming and sludge conveying technologies into an effective oil separation device.
