Our Applications

Application

KD International provides a complete range of oily water separation solutions tailored for airport facilities. Airports operate fuel storage facilities, fueling aprons, and vehicle maintenance areas, all of which generate hydrocarbon-contaminated wastewater. Rainwater that falls in fuel storage containment areas can become contaminated with leaks from tanks, valves, or fuel filter changes, requiring proper treatment before discharge. Similarly, fueling aprons and maintenance facilities accumulate oil, grease, and fuel residues that must be effectively separated to ensure environmental compliance and operational safety.

Problem

Stormwater and process water at airports often contain jet fuel, oils, and other hydrocarbons, leading to significant challenges:

• Fuel & Oil Contamination – Runoff from fueling areas and storage tanks requiring separation
• Regulatory Compliance Risks – Discharge limitations for hydrocarbons in surface water
• Spill Management – Need for rapid containment and separation of potential fuel spills
• Variable Flow Conditions – Fluctuating stormwater volumes impacting treatment efficiency
  Without proper separation, contaminated water poses environmental risks, increases regulatory scrutiny, and raises operational costs for airport facilities.

Solution

KD International offers high-performance oily water separators designed to efficiently remove hydrocarbons from stormwater and process water at airports. Our systems provide effective spill management, ensuring compliance with discharge regulations while optimizing wastewater treatment processes.
Our fully engineered separation systems offer:

• Fuel Storage Area Separators – Designed to handle leaks and runoff from containment zones
• Airport Fueling Separators – Engineered to remove residual fuel from fueling operations
• Vehicle Maintenance Facility Separators – Effective treatment of oily wastewater from workshops
• High-Capacity Gravity Separation Technology – Ensuring consistent and efficient hydrocarbon removal

KD International’s airport oily water separation solutions help operators achieve regulatory compliance, improve environmental safety, and reduce treatment costs, offering a reliable and cost-effective approach to wastewater management.
