ULTRACEPT®
PROCESS |
|
The Jay R. Smith Mfg. Co.® Ultracept® Oil/Water Separation
System is an above ground unit. It is
one of the simplest, most efficient systems available to
remove free oil from waste water without the use of
filters or coalescing plates. |
Surge Pit Description and Sketch
The minimum size for a surge pit is 4' x 4' x 4', which
equals to approximately 450 gallon capacity, however, the
larger the better. In some cases, existing tanks or underground
separators can be used. When possible, a baffled surge pit,
as illustrated, is recommended.
 |
|
From a surge pit, either above or below grade, contaminated
water is pumped to the Ultracept® Oil/Water Separator. The
separator, having been filled with clean water prior to startup,
then uses the surface tension of the clean water to promote
and enhance waste separation. The water then travels
through a series of chambers for gravity discharge to a
sanitary sewer or to a recycling system. Through a unique,
patented skimming technique, the Ultracept® System
isolates the waste for easy removal.

This shows the back of the Ultracept® Oil/Water Separator
with the optional recovered waste oil holding tank. This
model is recommended for situations that may have the
potential of spills such as refueling areas. |
