DuoCart - Surface Oil Spill System for fast response.JULY 2021 - Wavestream, the leader in environmental protection filter technology, has developed the DuoCart, a stand-alone, mobile and portable system for fast action when dealing with accidental fuel and oil spills.
Designed specifically for marinas, ports, dockyards, canals, rivers, or any other areas such as from within vessels or even from contaminated land. DuoCart is a robust but lightweight system which can be quickly moved by one person into action at the spillage. A suction lance is used to suck the polluted water up, which is then passed through the dual Wavestream filter systems removing any pollutants including micro-plastics, and returns legally-approved standards of filtered clean water back into the waterway or drains.
