Level Measurement Solutions for Slop Oil Tanks
Optimized process for waste recovery of hydrocarbon fluids
Vessels Used for Waste Recovery of Hydrocarbons Fluids
Slop oil vessels contain a mixture of dirty hydrocarbons and water. The water is usually sent to a wastewater facility and the oil can often be re-used as feedstock or product in the plant. Deposits and sticky materials are likely to be present and density and other fluid properties can vary. To be able to measure interface, a guided wave radar is the recommended solution with vibrating fork switches for overfill prevention and pump dry run protection.
