Vertical Mop Skimmer
ABASCO's Vertical Rope-Mop oil skimmer delivers high-volume oil recovery in rough-water conditions. Designed for simple deployment from vessels, it circulates several loops of Petro Mop oleophilic rope mop through floating oil. The rope is lifted vertically and the oil is squeezed out between rollers and collected in a sump, which can be gravity-drained or pumped.
Features
- Variable-speed hydraulic drive to match sea conditions
- Efficient oil recovery over a wide range of temperatures and viscosities.
Applications
- Open waters
- Lakes
- Bays
