Geotech Large Diameter Dangle Scavenger

Overview

The Geotech Dangle Scavenger is a unique separating and pumping system designed for the efficient active recovery of free phase hydrocarbon product from the surface water. The system is portable and is electrically safe for use in hazardous locations.

The heart of the Dangle Scavenger is a floating oil/water separator which passes recovered oil to a remote pump and control assembly. Actual separation of oil or other hydrocarbons from water is effected by a mesh screen located in the floating buoy assembly. This screen is specially treated to pass oil and repel water.
