Oil Water Separator Cleaning Curren cleans sub-grade oil water separators (OWS) to ensure proper maintenance of the units. We have found that most facilities with oil water separators do not maintain the units properly. Most oil water separators are designed to operate without assistance, on a daily basis, as the system has an equilibrium of function that allows it to, essentially, work in the background as part of a facility's waste water infrastructure. As time passes the system's equilibrium becomes off set as sediment and sludge build up, which requires periodic evacuation and cleaning, for the system to maintain proper balance. To clean an oil water separator system, Curren provides a trained field crew to evacuate and clean the oil water separator. If required, confined space entry can be performed to enter and clean the oil water separator. The liquid contents of the system will be evacuated and sediments and sludges will be cleaned and removed. After cleaning the oil water separator, the system will be restored to its original installation operation specifications. In short, the oil water separator will now be operating as if it was just installed. Although oil water separators are thought of as out of sight and out of mind, periodic inspections and maintenance of the system are required to insure that oil is not being discharged, which can result in compliance enforcement from applicable agencies. Curren can establish scheduled inspections and cleaning of oil water separators based on actual facility usage
