BILGE STATION „SUPER CLEANER“
Since many years the company also possesses its own bilge water collection station to collect used engine oil and oily rag in the port of Linz.
To replace the existing old bilge water collecting station, we have invested in the reconstruction of a ponton barge to a top modern ponton called "Super Cleaner" with a high quality separator, where the vessels can dispose bilge water, old lubricants and their waste for waste separation.
The separator has an impressive productivity, exceeding twofold the required legal norms to the benefit of the environment.
The recycling and cleaning station is located on the right bank on the 2127,2 Danube kilometre.
In addition, the station supplies fresh engine oil in barrels or in bulk as well as other consumable materials.
