Surfcleaner benefits: Surfcleaner for oil water separation
• Automatic removal, separation More than 40 Surfcleaner units have been in operation for almost two decades in the industrial
and recovery of oil and other oil spill segment. We have served a variety of customers, including oil refineries, industries,
hydrocarbons
coast guards and industrial ports, for example: Sonatrach Raffineria Italiana, Exxon Mobil,
• Able to handle different types of Preem Refinery, Esso Refinery, Ragn-Sells Group, Swedish Coast Guard,
oil without adjustment,
Ports of Stockholm and Midroc Environmental Services.

Advanced yet simple
Surfcleaner is advanced yet ingeniously simple. The patented collection and separation
process has been developed into a self-managing solution consisting of only two moving parts.
The separated oil is discharged to an external storage tank. Disposal costs are minimized
since the oil is recyclable.
Surfcleaner has been developed through years of extensive research in close co-operation with
customers. In addition to its impressive performance capabilities, it is durable, energy- efficient
and easily maintained.

About Surfcleaner
Surfcleaner designs, develops and manufactures the world’s first surface separators for removal,
separation and recovery of contaminants floating on the water surface – oil, diesel, petrol, floating sludge,
and more. The Surfcleaner technology is unique; by combining variations in inflow velocity and direction
with gravimetric separation, the process is very efficient – keeping pollutants from accumulating on the
Surfcleaner® surface and therefore help minimising greenhouse gas emissions.

more effective and stable treatment process. We help refineries, industries and recycling companies to
recover oil, diesel and petrol from contaminated water and significantly reduce VOC, CO and methane gas

emissions. Surfcleaners can also be used for swift removal of oil in ports, rivers, lakes, mines and oil pits.
Customers include Sonatrach Raffineria Italiana, Ragn-Sells Group, Swedish Coast Guard, Preem
Refinery, Esso, Exxon Mobil and Ports of Stockholm.
The principle behind the technology is Dr Stig Lundbäck’s discovery of the human heart’s Dynamic
Adaptive Piston Pump (DAPP) functionality. He built on this DAPP technology to invent and develop the
Surfcleaner – he also applied other universal laws of physics from the nature and the universe, such as
gravity, equilibrium, variation in rotation velocity in the center and the periphery, different density, and
more.
This makes the Surfcleaner a truly natural machine, working in concert with the laws of nature, instead of
trying to combat them. The natural buouyancy sends the liquid in vertical and horizontal motion inside the
body of the Surfcleaner. The Surfcleaner needs no pump, no powerpack, no hydraulics, no pneumatics.
That is why the operation of the Surfcleaner is so efficient and cost- effective; we just put the forces of
nature to work.
