A tank-mounted oil-water interface sensor notifies the operator when the oil level reaches maximum capacity.
Our separator uses our patented Coalescing Media Pack™ that allows finer solids and smaller oil droplets to progressively separate.
We work with local municipalities to ensure compliance with all codes and regulations.
Available in high‐strength precast concrete, steel, or fiberglass construction in sizes from 100 gallons to 20,000 gallons.
Uniform Plumbing Code Listed, city approved, and made in America.
Provide additional protection from oil discharge due to separator maximum capacity or incidental oil spill.
ParkUSA oil-water separators, also know also known as a sand-oil interceptors, are innovative and an eco-friendly solution for wastewater management. The separators, known under the ParkUSA name OilTrooper®, prevent pollution by removing oil from wastewater before discharge into a sewer system. Our technology utilizes a patented, enhanced separation system with a multi-compartment basin that efficiently separates sediment and hydrocarbons from water. Pollutants are detained with heavier sand sinking and oil rising, while clean water is discharged.
The ParkUSA OilTrooper® ensures compliance with environmental regulations and is ideal for vehicle maintenance, wash rack facilities, fueling depots, vehicle repair facilities, and industrial areas. Installing our oil-water separator will reduce maintenance costs and ensure compliance with codes and regulations, while offering a safer approach to maintenance.
As wastewater enters a sand-oil interceptor, it flows through a two-stage treatment process within the separator. In the first stage, the inflow hits a corrugated diffusion plate, which employs the Buffalo-Morse Principle to slow the velocity and create sinusoidal flow patterns that enable heavy solids to settle and oil to rise to the surface.
In the second stage, the wastewater passes through the Coalescing Media Pack™ (CMP), where finer solids and smaller oil droplets are separated progressively. The CMP consists of closely spaced corrugated plates made of an oleophilic material that causes oil droplets to adhere to the plates due to buoyancy forces. The pattern of the plates induces a sinusoidal laminar flow that promotes droplet collision and coalesces smaller droplets into larger globules of oil that rise to the surface through openings in the coalescing plate pack. In addition, heavy solids are separated and settle to the basin bottom.
Before exiting the separator, wastewater hits an oil dam, which prevents any collected oil from entering the outlet piping. Finally, an oil stopping valve at the exit piping guarantees oil-free wastewater discharge.
OilTrooper® sand-oil interceptors are typically used in a variety of industrial and commercial applications to remove sand, grit, oil, and other contaminants from wastewater before it is discharged into a municipal sewer system.
Sand-oil interceptors remove oil and grease from wastewater generated by vehicle repair and maintenance activities.
A sand-oil interceptor can help remove these chemicals and contaminants before the wastewater is discharged into the municipal sewer system.
Many industrial processes generate wastewater that contains oil, grease, and other contaminants. A sand-oil interceptor can be installed to remove these contaminants and ensure compliance with environmental regulations.
Sand-oil interceptors remove oil and fuel from wastewater generated by fueling and maintenance activities.
Large parking lots can generate significant amounts of runoff containing oil, grease, and other contaminants.
With over 35 years of experience, we offer proven water management innovation, technology, and service.
