Skimoil’s^® BilgeVAP is the answer to the marine waste water management requirements presented by the new EPA enforcement of the Clean Water Act. The BilgeVAP by Skimoil evaporates away the water portion of oily bilge water, gray water and even treated black water coming off of Marine Sanitation Devices (MSD) allowing workboats, barges and even shore facilities to become no discharge zones.

With this simple, rugged device, all the water or slops are automatically heated to boiling and turned into vapor that is then vented to atmosphere through a blower-assisted stack. Venting is easy. Water vapor is not considered a pollutant. Electric heating gives you no emissions!

Currently, all BilgeVAPs are available in blue or green,
depending on production run.

Seemingly a lot of boat operators being impacted heavily by the new EPA enforcement of the Clean Water Act, thought that simply running gray water out thru their MSD chlorination chamber was going to be enough treatment, when in fact they are going to have to actively manage this gray water—not just disinfect it by simply chlorinating it.

The BilgeVAP^™ eliminates this gray water—as well as all the treated black water coming off of the MSD.

The "No Discharge Zone" BilgeVAP^™ is engineered to quickly, automatically and safely evaporate the water.

60 GPH available in ShoreVAP and OilEaterVAP models.

Natural gas, propane, and waste oil fired.

The "No Discharge Zone" BilgeVAP^™ marine onboard electric evaporator runs off your generators and evaporates 4-14 gallons per hour with no moving parts (except the exhaust fan)! This simple system runs unattended for up to 20 hours and shuts down by itself. It has both low water and high temperature automatic safety shutoff controls.

No moving parts!

With under floor or immersed heating, the "No Discharge Zone" BilgeVAP^™ allows a 98-99% reduction of your bilge water. When the water portion has been evaporated, just the oil portion and solids remain—which can be easily drained off through the 2" drain port. The flat or funneled floor is sloped to the drain and the removeable lid makes access easy. If you watch what you feed it (oily or dirty water), you can run several batches (lots) before you need bother to clean out the oil.

Why use the "No Discharge Zone" BilgeVAP^™?

   Bubba proof operation
   ZERO LIQUID DISCHARGE
   No moving parts — duh!
   Simple operation — on/off controls
   Automatic shutoff — runs unattended
   Autofill as an option — hands off

How does it compare to oil/water separators?

No comparison—and here’s WHY NOT:

Marine oil/water separators are flow thru systems capable of removing free unemulsified oils from water. Our BRUTE marine oil water separators are usually used for dealing with larger amounts of bilge water—BUT cannot do anything for or to gray water or treated black water.

Some vessels are mandated to have USCG/ABS/BV certified marine oil water separators such as our BRUTE systems which are certified to meet IMO/MEPC 107(49) requirements. While these vessels are required to have these certified marine oil water separators—if they have no oily water to process (think BilgeVAP) they do not have to use the separators, they must merely have the operable separators in place and ready to use.

BilgeVAP eliminates/evaporates oily bilge water—as well as gray water and treated black water.

ZERO Liquid Discharge!

It takes 2.6 KW to evaporate 1 gallon of water.
