Measurement of Oil in Water for Petrochemical Industry

From Wilks Enterprise, Inc.

InfraCal TOG/TPH Analyzers provide on-site ppm measurements to help ensure upstream or downstream
wastewater complies with discharge
permits to avoid potentially costly
fines. They are in operation around the world measuring the oil and grease levels in produced water on drilling platforms, oil content in FRAC water, hydrocarbons in wastewater effluents from refineries, and TPH in soil at remediation sites.
