Forecourt separators are a requirement for fuel filling stations. Complying with safety and environmental criteria is paramount in this type of situation and this unit does just that.

This Clearwater Forecourt Separator is a full retention separator designed to intercept pollutants, such as silt, oil and petroleum. On top of its capacity to store these separated contaminants though, it is also capable of retaining a spillage deemed possible on a petrol station forecourt. The capacity allowed for is the equivalent of a fuel tanker’s compartment (up to 7,600 litre).

Important Notice: in the event of a large emergency spillage, the tank would have to be emptied immediately.

It is available with a Class I  discharge option – usually required for discharge to any surface water.

Both treat the flow by:

• Separating oil and storing it.
• Separating silt and storing it.
• Breaking down emulsions into their component parts to prevent them leaving the unit.
