Oily Water & Petroleum Product Removal 

Many industries use petroleum products, from manufacturing to food service. While these materials are essential to many businesses, they can create unsavory or even hazardous waste. To the untrained eye, oily water may not seem dangerous, but experts understand that it poses a huge contamination risk if not disposed of properly.

The professionals at Crescent Environmental Services are experienced in removing petroleum product waste and oily water in a safe and efficient manner. By partnering with us, you can rest assured that your employees are working in a healthy environment and you’re adhering to all the necessary environmental codes.

What Services Do We Offer?

The technicians at Crescent Environmental Services can handle a variety of waste products:

● Wastewater

● Oily water

● Oily sludge

● Over-the water gray and black water

We specialize in restaurant oil removal and are certified by the Sewerage and Water Board, which means you can count on us to do things by the book. Many municipalities have strict rules about the storage and removal of oil-contaminated water, and for a good reason. We only use approved cleaning and transportation methods to ensure your business isn’t negatively affected by spills or violations.

What Is the Removal Process?

We use the highest quality equipment during the removal process and are equipped with a fleet of vehicles designed to safely transport petroleum waste. Upon arrival, our first step is to inspect the separator, drain or oil pit to ensure there are no issues. Once we’re satisfied that the storage container is in top shape, we can clear out everything using vacuums, then transport the waste to a management facility for recycling or disposal.

Why Is Maintenance Important?

Having your storage containers drained regularly is vital to preventing accidents and spills. When working with petroleum waste, companies have a duty to protect their workers, neighbors and the environment from contamination. When introduced into groundwater, oil byproducts can cause a slew of problems for those living and working in the vicinity:
 
  • Dizziness
  • Nausea
  • Headache
  • Skin irritation
  • Kidney damage
  • Nervous system damage
  • Coma
  • Death

What Steps Can You Take To Prevent Problems?

While it’s possible to clean up hazardous waste, the best protection is prevention. You can prevent accidents with the following tips:
 
  • Having regular inspections of equipment and containers
  • Replacing parts that show wear
  • Ensuring that all personnel have adequate training on equipment used
