SkimOil BilgeVAP Marine Waste Water Evaporator

SkimOIL’s BilgeVAP (Marine Waste Water Evaporator) is a potential answer to the onboard marine bilge water disposal problems. While it is largely the USCG that does the monitoring and law enforcement, there are lots of international, federal, and state agencies that set limits on oil and grease (O&G) content in bilge-water discharges. The worldwide maximum oil content is 15 ppm. Still, lots of environmentally sensitive areas (think Galapagos) and several states in the USA have even tighter standards or even NO DISCHARGE ZONES in many coastal harbors. The Lakers have even bigger disposal problems and costs.

WHAT IF YOU HAD NO BILGE WATER?

Or disposal problems?

The BilgeVAP simply evaporates away the water portion of oily bilge water and maybe even treated black water coming off of Marine Sanitation Devices (MSD) allowing workboats, barges, platforms, oil rigs, and even shore facilities to become no discharge zones.
?

With this simple, rugged device, all the water or slops are automatically heated to boiling and turned into vapor which is then vented to atmosphere through a blower-assisted stack. Venting is easy. Water vapor is not considered a pollutant. Electric heating means no emissions!

Factoid #1.

The short version is most marine onboard waste waters—-are just that. Bilge water is over 98.32% just water, gray water is just soapy water (like at home) and treated black water coming off of a Type ll MSD is clean enough you can drink it (but I won’t).

Factoid #2.

Water is water at 211 degrees F—-at 212 F it turns to vapor and can be gone.

The “No Discharge Zone” BilgeVAP™ marine onboard electric evaporator runs off your generators and evaporates 4-14 gallons per hour with no moving parts (except the exhaust fan)! This simple system runs unattended for up to 20 hours and shuts down by itself. It has both low water and high temperature automatic safety shutoff controls.

With under floor or immersed heating, the “No Discharge Zone” BilgeVAP™ allows a 98-99% reduction of your bilge water. When the water portion has been evaporated, just the oil portion and solids remain—which can be easily drained off through the 2″ drain port. The flat or funneled floor is sloped to the drain and the removeable lid makes access easy. If you watch what you feed it (oily or dirty water), you can run several batches (lots) before you need bother to clean out the oil.

The BilgeVAP™ eliminates this gray water—as well as all the treated black water coming off of the MSD.
The “No Discharge Zone” BilgeVAP™ is engineered to quickly, automatically and safely evaporate the water.
