These cartridges are engineered to handle a broad spectrum of process contaminants and can be arranged for either parallel or series operation based on the clean-up requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Each vessel is capable of removing up to 72 kg of oil with a separation efficiency of 90\u201395%, achieving oil-in-water concentrations as low as 5 mg\/l. The system\u2019s performance is continuously monitored using an industry-leading oil content analyzer to ensure compliance and operational efficiency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Applications:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Onshore and offshore oil and gas well testing and clean-up operations.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Key Features Include:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Compact Footprint<\/strong> \u2013 Skid-mounted for ease of transport and installation<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>High Separation Efficiency<\/strong> \u2013 Effectively handles difficult emulsions<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Reduced Environmental Impact<\/strong> \u2013 Lowers discharge contaminants and minimizes chemical usage<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Flexible Operation<\/strong> \u2013 Adaptable to varying process demands<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Cost Efficiency<\/strong> \u2013 Reduces burden on facility systems and lowers overall water treatment costs<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"853\" src=\"https:\/\/apex-oilfield.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/All-Data-Sheet_page87_image-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2122\" style=\"width:800px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/apex-oilfield.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/All-Data-Sheet_page87_image-1.png 1280w, https:\/\/apex-oilfield.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/All-Data-Sheet_page87_image-1-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/apex-oilfield.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/All-Data-Sheet_page87_image-1-1024x682.png 1024w, https:\/\/apex-oilfield.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/All-Data-Sheet_page87_image-1-768x512.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"289\" height=\"523\" src=\"https:\/\/apex-oilfield.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-71.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-874\" style=\"width:800px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/apex-oilfield.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-71.png 289w, https:\/\/apex-oilfield.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-71-166x300.png 166w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 289px) 100vw, 289px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Technical Specifications<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th><strong>Design Press. psi (bar)<\/strong><\/th><th><strong>Temp Rating \u00b0F (\u00b0C)<\/strong><\/th><th><strong>Connections<\/strong><\/th><th><strong>Materials<\/strong><\/th><th><strong>Flow Capacity<\/strong><\/th><th><strong>Operating Range<\/strong><\/th><th><strong>Inlet Concentration<\/strong><\/th><th><strong>Efficiency<\/strong><\/th><th><strong>Outlet Concentration<\/strong><\/th><th><strong>Filter Cartridges<\/strong><\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>100 (6.9)<\/td><td>4 to 212 (-20 to 100)<\/td><td>Inlet: 4\u201d fig 206 hammer union, female<br>Outlet: 4\u201d fig 206 hammer union, male<br>Drain: 1\u201d NPT port<\/td><td>316 SS, vessels and piping<\/td><td>4,770 bbl\/day for 24 hours @ 100 mg\/l oil-in-feed<\/td><td>0 to 100% of flow range<\/td><td>300 to 400 mg\/l (recommended maximum 500 mg\/l)<\/td><td>90 to 95% (single stage operation)<\/td><td>5 to 30 mg\/l<\/td><td>50 oil adsorption cartridges per vessel<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Note:<\/strong> Designed and manufactured to ASME VIII Div 1, ANSI B31.3, NACE MR-01-75, SI 289, SI 913, EN 12079, BS 449.
