PureBilge

Alfa Laval PureBilge is a fully automated centrifugal separation system that cleans oily water on board vessels at sea and ashore. By effectively removing oil pollution well below 5 ppm - far tougher than the 15 ppm IMO requirements - it sets a new standard in making water safe for discharge overboard.

Reliable, efficient, continuous

  • Compact, modular, easy-to-install system saves time, space and money
  • Continuous, single-stage operation requires less holding tank volume and provides more payload capacity
  • Reduced operating costs thanks to low maintenance, automated control, minimal waste disposal, no chemical consumption and no disposable filter element
  • Unaffected by sea heave, oil shocks or high solids loading
  • Password-locked switch ensures only those responsible for environmental compliance may authorize discharge
Alfa Laval PureBilge is a high-speed centrifugal oily water separation (OWS) system that cleans large volumes. Its superior separation performance stems from the patented XLrator spiral inlet, which prevents oil droplets splitting and additional emulsions forming. It reduces operating costs by being designed for 24/7 unmanned operation. It doesn't require chemicals, adsorption filters or membranes.
