The HydroFloTech TotlSep™ (TS) Series oil/water separator is a “top of the line” or “commercial grade” coalescing type gravity separator designed for use in a wide range of applications. Our TotlSep TS series separators are designed to meet the American Petroleum Institute’s recommendations for oil water separator design.

The key features of the TotlSep that distinguish the TotlSep Separator are:

  1. High flowrate application (up to 2,000+ gpm configurations)
  2. Integral oil reservoie with standard fittings suitable for automatic pumping level controls
  3. Heavy duty structural construction capable for decades of use

The TotlSep oil water separator can be fitted with various sizes of the proprietary DynaPac™ cross corrugated coalescing media. The internal DynaPac™ cross corrugated coalescing media. (available in PVC, polypropylene, and stainless steel) can be flushed with water and reused for years of efficient, trouble free use.

For applications involving settling solids, we also offer a TotlSep “Hopper” configuration. This optional sludge hopper captures any heavy settling solids prior to entering the separation chamber.

One of the key design advantages of TotlSep is that the recovered product will typically have a residual water content of less than 3%.

There are many considerations to be taken into account when designing an enhanced gravity oil water separator. The following needs to be taken into account as a minimum:

  1. Inlet flow distribution
  2. Length to height to width ratios (for proper overall flow distribution)
  3. Cross sectional velocities (actual, not nominal)
  4. Laminar flow conditions
  5. DynaPac™ Cross Corrugated coalescing media or parallel plate media “Reynolds” calculations (for quiescent flow distribution)
  6. Effluent flow distribution
  7. Total projected surface area

These basic design considerations all contribute to the complete utilization of the separation media. Follow them properly and the results will be consistent, equal flow distribution through the separation chamber and the media pack. These are the earmarks of a thoughtful, wholly engineered, fully developed oil/water separator design.

The separation cell is designed using elements of American Petroleum Institute’s publication 421 Feb. 1990 “Design of Oil-Water Separators” to ensure the best possible use of particle rise rate performance. The separation cell is a rectangular tank manufactured from carbon steel with an effluent surface baffle, 304 stainless steel full width adjustable overflow weir, effluent collection chamber with flanged outlet nozzle and recycle suction port, and angled float beaching plate. For our TotlSep “Hopper” TSH models also include a “V-Hopper” sludge collection chamber.

TotlSep Hopper - How it Works

  1. Influent Diffusion Chamber
    The flow shall enter the separator submerged, through an influent dispersion baffle. Dispersion across the depth and width of the Dynapac™ is to be achieved through the use of a non-clog diffuser. Heavy solids that fall out of suspension here shall be channeled to the sludge collection chamber (for TotlSep “Hopper” TSH models only).
  2. Separation Chamber
    The Separation Chamber is designed to fit the exact amount of DynaPac™ cross corrugated coalescing media, sized for specific applications. Adequate space is to be left before and after the chamber to prevent short circuiting through the pack. DynaPacTM coalescing media is available in 0.5”, 0.75” and 1.25” sizes all in PVC, H-PVC, Polypropylene or 304 stainless steel. Depending on the correct sizing of the unit, this media (sized in cubic feet) provides the correct surface area (in square feet) for ideal separation. HydroFloTech oil water separator sizing sheets are a great resource to determine the size of media required by application (hyperlink).
  3. Sludge Collection Chamber (for TotlSep “Hopper” TSH units)
    The sludge collection chamber shall be located directly beneath the coalescing media pack and provide ample storage capacity for the settled sludge.
  4. Oil Reservoir
    The oil discharge port is located adjacent to the separation chamber. As the oil floats and rises to the top of the DynaPacTM media pack in the separation chamber, the oil retention baffle in the oil reservoir captures this separated oil.
  5. Effluent Chamber
    The aqueous phase leaving the DynaPac™ shall pass under the oil reservior and up over the adjustable 304 stainless steel effluent weir, which shall maintain the liquid level throughout the separator.
  6. Removable Lids
    The entire separator can be covered with an optional bolt-down removable lid
  7. Coalescing Media
    The DynaPacTM coalescing media pack shall be fabricated of oleophilic cross corrugated coalescing media manufactured by HydroFloTech. Media is available in PVC, H-PVC, Polypropelene and 304 stainless steel.
