Also known asOil-Contaminated DrainageOil Interceptor Drainage

Oily Water Drainage is the system that collects run-off potentially contaminated with oil or fuel and passes it through an oil/water separator (interceptor) before discharge. In data centers it serves generator yards, fuel storage areas and plantrooms, capturing spills and leaks so that only cleaned water reaches the drainage network, meeting environmental regulations.
