Oily Water Separators

The Victor MiniSep ™ - VM Series is a bilge oily water separator that is specifically engineered for the marine environment. Using Victor Marine's 80 years of experience in providing solutions to bilge water treatment, the company has incorporated the latest technology to ensure that the oily water separator complies with the latest IMO regulation MEPC 107(49) introduced in January 2005.

The VM Series is designed to ensure that the best separation of oil and water is possible whilst maximising the performance of its consumable items. The VM Series is a four vessel unit, mounted on a modular skid, constructed using 31 6SS. The unit has individual suction and discharge pumps which can maintain water discharge of under 1 ppm oil content, as proven during the IMO tests completed by BV and USCG. To achieve this high quality separation, Victor Marine's VM Series uses a distinctive three-stage separation process. This involves a Hydrophobic High Viscosity Removal System (Hi-VOR system), an oleophilic coalescing filter element and an adsorption granular media polishing unit (AGM filtration).

A 15ppm oil content monitor, complete with diverter valve set, is provided to ensure the quality of water meets the IMO regulations and avoids any illegal discharges overboard.

With no high speed moving parts, delicate membranes, hazardous chemicals or cleaning cycles, the VM Series is both easy to install and operate for both the shipyard and ship operators. The AGM granular media has been refined to adsorb over 60% of its weight in oil contaminants (compared to approx. 15% in activated carbon), which increases the life of the consumables, thereby minimising costs and maximising uptime. Victor Marine's in-house engineering and testing facilities can advise customers on the best solution for their vessels. The VM Series can be supplied with a range of certification and process options.

Victor Marine maintains a worldwide network of agents who can provide our customers with comprehensive after-sales services, for example, installation, commissioning, technical support, servicing and spares.
