BOWTS Bilge and Oily Wastewater Treatment Systems
Flow Rates: 5-1500 GPM
The BOWTS Series, Bilge and Oily Wastewater Treatment Systems are designed around U.S. Navy NFESC specifications. Each BOWTS system can be custom sized, configured and designed around each shore-side facility to fit any flow rate required and water characteristic.
From high flow to low flow the BOWTS can be scaled up or down and configured to provide an economic alternative to "one size fits all" design philosophy.
The use of a bilge and oily wastewater treatment system can help facilities meet pretreatment standards for discharges of wastewater to a POTW (40 CFR 403) or meet the effluent limits of an NPDES permit (40 CFR 122). In addition, this treatment process may help facilities meet the requirements of waste reduction under RCRA (40 CFR 262) and Executive Order 13148. It may also help facilities reduce the amount of regulations they must comply with for the management of hazardous waste (i.e., recordkeeping, reporting, inspections, transportation, and accumulation) under RCRA (40 CFR 262.
Typical Large Scale System Components
Feed Pump system
OS Series Oil Water Separator (primary, treating bilge offload to LET)
LET (load equalizing tank)
LET Pumpout
OS Series Oil Water Separator (secondary, lower flow)
Chemical Reaction Treatment (CRT-FF) (flash flocculation/pH)
DAF System (Dissolved Air Flotation)
Hydropneumatic Water Feed System
AFFF Monitoring System
LET Sump Pumping System
Screw Press De-watering & sludge conditioning system
