Oil Recovery Skimmer TDS-136 is a selective oil skimmer designed to remove oil spills from water. The TDS 136 skimmer is available in pneumatic or hydraulic drive for oil spill response or industrial use. Due to its shallow draft and light weight, this handy skimmer is ideal for clean up in creeks, rivers and lakes.

It is equally at home in an API separator or inland river spill. The pneumatic model can be connected directly to a vacuum truck for an efficient oil spill response unit or routine pit cleanup operations. Also available with a high capacity grooved drum.

The Oil Recovery Skimmer TDS 136 shares many of the same application as the TDS 118 with twice the recovery rate. A big difference is that this model can be supplied with our ES400 Helical Screw pump for heavy oil transfer. The TDS 136 is widely used in industry; the offloading pump may be mounted on the skimmer for high head application.

Lightweight and easy to deploy on site, the TDS-136 skimmer is popular for many applications including use with tank trucks. This rugged skimmer is Elastec’s best response unit, and can also be used effectively in pits for heavy oil recovery.
