Passive Skimmers

The Passive Skimmer is designed to absorb and encapsulate hydrocarbons by floating directly on the water in catch basins, sumps, oil/water separators and marine fueling stations. Passive Skimmers are made of a proprietary blend of polymers, called Smart Sponge , packaged in flexible mesh containers and are available in a variety of sizes.
Interceptor Enhancers feature the Smart Sponge technology and can be inserted into oil separators to dramatically reduce maintenance costs, whilst increasing effectiveness and producing a recyclable solid waste.
And the use of Interceptor Enhancers has shown dramatic results.
Based on the current Smart Sponge Passive Skimmer these products are installed within existing interceptors/separators (OWIs) to dramatically increase the effectiveness of the OWI (from typically 45% removal to 95% removal) whilst at the same time reducing annual maintenance costs by up to 64%.
