These separators have a circular bottom. They are manufactured by simultaneous projection molding of polyester with fiberglass (GRP) and are very economical.
Its dimensions are reduced and its installation is normally done under the floor supported on a flat concrete bed correctly levelled (installation instructions).
BUPOLSA has a range of capabilities standardized by the manufacturing process, in response to the following dimensions:
| CYLINDRICAL HYDROCARBON SEPARATOR MEL CLASS ii MODEL (≤100mg/l) | |||
| Capacity (liters) | Flow (l/s) | Ø (mm) | Height (mm) |

They work from the difference of specific weights between water and hydrocarbon. The operation of the separator is based on the separation by gravity of the materials which are not soluble in water. The heavy particles (sand, mud, …) are deposited on the bottom and light particles rise to the surface of the water. The effluent enters by the intermediate part of the deposit, taking place a loss of velocity of the same that allows first of all a decanting of the solids and in turn a separation of the hydrocarbons which are captured on the surface of the separator. The final effluent is collected in the intermediate part, thus avoiding the possibility of hydrocarbon output.
The equipment is made Polyester with Fiberglass (GRP), so it is insensitive to corrosion and does not require maintenance.
It is recommended to maintain the operation of the equipment every six months and, in addition, it should:
