X30 GROOVED DISC KVICHAK/MARCO SKIMMER INSERT
The ELASTEC X30 Skimmer can be integrated with a Kvichak/Marco Filterbelt Response Vessel. This system can quickly be changed with a filterbelt skimmer depending on the oil type and situation. The Elastec patented Grooved Disc skimming technology is based on extensive research to improve oil recovery rates by modifying the geometry of oleophilic (oil-loving) surfaces. The revolutionary oil skimming technology won the X Prize Foundation’s Wendy Schmidt Oil Cleanup X CHALLENGE.
The X30 Cassette is a custom skimming system for oil recovery vessels.
It was tested both in calm conditions and in waves. It beat competitive designs from around the world to win top honor. Copies of test reports and X Prize competition results are available on request. Grooved Disc systems have been independently tested at Ohmsett on three occasions now proving the technology is scalable.
