Oil and water separators can be above-ground, underground, and in all sizes. They have many applications, commercial and industrial, cleaning the water for many kinds of settings. In our last post, we talked about the basics of oil and water separators. Here, we’ll dive into Jet Blast Inc.’s oil and water separator cleaning services in Maryland and neighboring areas.

The Importance of Oil and Water Separators

Oil and water separators preserve the water quality of our local bodies of water. At the end of the day, that is what they are for. There are many activities that need water to achieve results but could mix with oil, such as the following:

  • Food manufacturing
  • Plumbing output for commercial and multi-family buildings
  • Wastewater treatment plants
  • Metalworking
  • Petroleum processing
  • Bilge water treatment from boats and ships

With so many applications, you can see just how many outlets there are for oil to get into our rivers, streams, bays, etc. This contamination would eventually harm wildlife, nature, and us. Removing as much oil as possible is simply the right and reasonable thing to do.

Oil and Water Separator Cleaning

Similarly, maintaining those oil water separators is another reasonable responsibility. Cleaning an oil and water separator involves these basic steps:

  • Turning off the water valve
  • Opening the tank
  • Removing and disposing of the oil
  • Draining the water
  • Measuring the settled solids and removing them if necessary

Of course, there are various kinds of oil and water separators, and it is best to clean them specifically according to the manufacturer’s instructions for that model. 

Call a Qualified Professional!

You also do not want to do this job yourself. Local laws set how one disposes of oil waste, so you want to get a professional to do it who understands them already. You also benefit from hiring a professional by letting an expert handle the dangers of tank/confined space cleaning. Jet Blast Inc. is here to serve all your oil and water separator cleaning needs. In addition, we clean grease traps, tanks, and sewer systems.
