ABSTRACT:
An oil accumulation system having a first separating station and a second separating station, wherein the first separating station includes a tank for receiving contaminated water with an inclined plate separator disposed therein. The tank has an adjustable skimmer which delivers oily waste water to the second separating station by gravity. The second separating station includes an outer housing which encompasses an inner housing, forming two interior chamber. The inner chamber collects the oily waste from the skimmer for additional oil/water separation by use of a first laminar flow area, or alternatively by use of a fiber foam filter. At the bottom of the inner housing is an outlet, which forms an inlet to the second interior chamber, so that water is gravity-forced from the first chamber to the second chamber, forming a second laminar flow area for further oil/water separation. The outer housing has an outlet proximal its lower end connected to a vertical standpipe for maintaining a fluid height within the chambers of the housings.
