by removing mechanical impurities, oxidation by-products, water, and other contaminants from the oil through various technical means.
Working Principle
The working principle of an oil filter machine mainly includes the following steps:
Initial filtration: The oil first passes through a cylindrical metal mesh pre-filter to remove larger solid particles.
Heating: The oil then enters a heater for heat exchange heating to improve the oil's fluidity and promote water evaporation.
Filtration: The heated oil undergoes multi-stage filtration to remove fine particulate impurities.
Water separation: Through a special water separator, using hydrophilic and hydrophobic technology to change the interaction force at the oil-water interface, promoting the aggregation and separation of water in the oil.
Purification: Finally, the purified oil is collected for reuse.
Application Fields
Industrial machinery: Used to improve the cleanliness of mechanical and electrical oils.
Power systems: Used for purification treatment of transformer oil, insulating oil, etc.
Automotive maintenance: Used for regeneration treatment of automobile engine oil.
Manufacturing: Used for circulating purification of hydraulic oil, lubricating oil, etc.
Oil Skimmer
An oil skimmer is mainly used to collect floating oil on water or ground surfaces, commonly used in oil spill accident handling, factory waste oil recovery, and other situations.
Working Principle
The working principle of an oil skimmer mainly includes:
Oil-absorbing belt or rope: A belt or rope with special oil-absorbing material contacts the water surface to adsorb floating oil.
Scraping: A scraper is used to scrape off the floating oil adsorbed on the belt or rope.
Collection: The collected floating oil is sent to a storage container.
Application Fields
Marine oil spills: Used for rapid collection of floating oil when oil spills occur at sea or near ports.
Industrial wastewater treatment: Used to recover waste oil floating on the water surface during industrial wastewater treatment processes.
Oil depot maintenance: Used for cleaning leaked oil on the ground during routine maintenance at oil depots or gas stations.
Environmental protection: Used for oil pollution cleanup in natural water bodies such as rivers and lakes.
Summary
Although both oil filter machines and oil skimmers involve oil treatment, their main functions and application scenarios are different. Oil filter machines are mainly used to improve the cleanliness of oil, suitable for purification of various industrial oils; while oil skimmers are mainly used to collect floating oil on water or ground surfaces, especially suitable for handling emergency situations such as oil spills.
