Last week, Florida-based Enviro Voraxial Technology (EVTN) announced that it has received a purchase order from BP for an underwater version of its Voraxial 4000 Separator. Mounted on a skimmer vessel, the machine takes oil-laden water from the sea and spins it at high speed in a central cylindrical chamber. con't

Pressure, Flow and Energy Excellence:
- Scaleable technology - size up or down
- No Pressure Drop - provides a pressure increase
- High “G” force, low energy
- High flow, small footprint, non-clogging
Multiple Industry Uses:
- Oil spill (letter from State of Alaska)
- Oil exploration and production
- Offshore and onshore facilities
- Crude Oil Cleanup
- Food processing
- Frac Water
- Mining
- Municipal wastewater
- Manufacturing
- Produced Water (short video of produced water separation)
- Refineries
- Stormwater separation
- Uranium (uranium news)
- Waste-to-energy (waste-to-energy sale news)
- see case studies-videos for more details on above applications.
Separates 3 Components Simultaneously:
- Oil/water separation
- Liquid/solid separation
- Liquid/liquid/solid separation
Compact Unit – Small Footprint–
Scaleable Models:
- Voraxial® 1000 Separator – 3-5gpm
- Voraxial® 2000 Separator – 20-60gpm
- Voraxial® 4000 Separator – 100-500gpm
- Voraxial® 8000 Separator – 1000-3500gpm
More Benefits:
- Treats a wide range of flows, even slugging flows
- High performance over a wide concentration range without any adjustments
- High performance over a wide flow range without any adjustments
- Operates with low or high inlet pressure
- Gas slugging does not effect separation performance
- Low shear impeller – oils are not emulsified
- Non-clogging – open impeller
- Variable speeds to optimize separation
- Patented technology
Enviro Voraxial® Technology, Inc.
(Stock Symbol: EVTN)
is the developer and manufacturer of the Voraxial® Separator, arguably the world's most efficient, high volume, bulk fluid and fluid/solid separation technology.
EVTN has developed and patented the Voraxial® Separator; a revolutionary and proprietary technology that efficiently separates large volumes of solids and liquids with different specific gravities. The Voraxial® Separator acts as an in-line, continuous flow separator that can conduct high volume liquid/liquid, liquid/solid or liquid/liquid/solid separation. The Voraxial performs separation without a pressure drop.
The Voraxial can efficiently handle fluctuations in flow rate and oil concentrations without any adjustments, allowing for ease of installation and operation. This superior separation is achieved in real-time, and in much greater volumes, with a more compact and energy efficient machine than any product on the market today.
The Voraxial Separator is:

Voraxial® Separation Chamber
Centrifugal force concentrates the oil to the middle of the separation chamber. A specially designed vortex finder extracts the different fluid streams.
Voraxial® Skid
Complete turnkey solution to meet each customers specific discharge requirements
The Voraxial® 4000 Separator
Will clean 500 gallons per minute of oil spill water
